4. Operating Instructions
The day-to-day functionality of your lift is not affected by the installation of the Oxford Smart
Monitor. This section covers the basic lift operations.
WARNING
Refer to your lift’s user guide for full operating instructions, safety guidance and daily
checks prior to lifting and transferring patients.
WARNING
DO NOT exceed the safe working load of the lift and/or sling.
To raise or lower the boom following the retro-fit of an Oxford Smart Monitor, simply press the raise
and lower buttons on the User Handset (Fig. 2). If your lift incorporates powered leg positioning, the
legs can be opened/closed using the appropriate button on the User Handset (Fig. 2).

In the event of the User Handset becoming faulty or damaged, you may continue to use the lift for
a short period of time until the User Handset has been replaced by using the emergency redundant
controls, located beneath the emergency stop button on the Smart Monitor (Fig. 3).
NOTE: If the User Handset becomes faulty or damaged, contact your authorised Oxford service
provider immediately to arrange a replacement.

5. Smart Monitor Display
The Oxford Smart Monitor has the option to read out information via the LCD display screen. It is
possible to read out total lifting cycles, total work done, overloads and number of days since last
service, which can be used to quickly and easily evaluate the condition of the lift actuator.
This information is accessed by a ½ second press on the ‘RAISE’ button on the User Handset or
redundant ‘RAISE’ button on the Smart Monitor.
Service & Usage Information
When it is time for a service, the service symbol will appear on the
display. In addition, when the User Handset is activated, the Smart
Monitor will give an audible signal giving notice to users that a service
is required.
The service symbol will be displayed each time the raise or lower keys
are depressed on the User Handset. When the service symbol is displayed,
contact your authorised service provider immediately to arrange a service.
If the lift stops because of an overload (an attempt to lift more than the
safe working load) the overload symbol will appear on the LCD display
and the lift will cease to operate until the additional load (above the
SWL) has been removed.
WARNING
If the LCD display screen on your Smart Monitor has recorded
an overload, Joerns Healthcare recommend that ALL routine
daily checks are carried out on the lift prior to further use (for a
list of daily checks, please refer to your lift user manual). Joerns
Healthcare also recommend that you contact your authorised
Oxford service provider for additional guidance.

On-Board Redundant Controls
On-board redundant controls enable the lift to be raised or lowered in
the event of an emergency.
If your lift incorporates powered leg positioning, there are redundant
controls to both open and close the legs.
Battery Information
The display showing full battery means that the battery is fully charged
and the lift is ready for use.
The display showing a half empty battery indicates that it is time to
charge the battery.
The empty battery symbol showing on the display indicates that
the battery has no capacity left and should be placed on charge
immediately.
WARNING
To avoid possible permanent damage to the battery, the battery should be placed on
charge as soon as the display indicates the half empty battery symbol.
