2Description of the product
2.1 Intended Use and Reasonably Foreseeable Misuse
This SlidaScope has been designed to dry and store up to eight Flexible Thermolabile Endoscopes.
The SlidaScope is intended to be used for Operators in a healthcare environment to store and dry
Thermolabile Endoscopes after being reprocessed.
The SlidaScope shall not be used for any other function except for the storing and drying of
Thermolabile Endoscopes.
The SlidaScope shall be used with the following original accessories and components only:
•SmartStations
•Communications Kit (including the export version –excluding laptop)
•Endoscope Hang Hooks
•Optional - Approved Endoscope Hose Connection Kits (Purchased Separately)
It is essential that the user of this manual is aware of the potential hazards associated with the unit
and its accessories. All operators should be familiar with the safety precautions and warnings given
in this section prior to attempting to operate the unit. If the unit is used in a manner not specified by
the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
2.2 Process Overview
The SlidaScope Data System functions on a Linux system and Barcode Scanners. The system
functions on the concept of WHO, WHAT and WHERE, with WHEN being automatically captured by
the Data System.
•WHO = Operator ID Barcode
•WHAT = Scope ID Barcode
•WHERE = Device/Function Barcode
AER Validation: At SmartStation –see section below - SmartStation
•WHO - Operator ID –the person that washed the scope in the AER
•WHAT - Which Scope
•WHERE - Where the scope was washed (Washer/AER Chamber)
•The Scope is loaded into the AER

SlidaScope Cabinet
Manual Version 1.06 Date 23 February 2022 14
Storage Information:
•WHO –(The Operator ID Barcode) –the person that stored the scope in the Cabinet
•WHAT - Which Scope (Scope ID Barcode)
•Into the Cabinet (Cabinet Name) E.g. Cabinet 2, Location 3 (Drawer number)
•Scope Storage Count Down Timers seen on the Cabinet Control Screen located on the
cabinet door/s, may be used to determine which scope has the least remaining storage time.
Utilising this “First In– First Out” principle helps reduce reprocessing costs and delivers
operational efficiency and saves time and costs.

Located on the top of the drying cabinet, the Integrated Air System (IAS) is an assembled unit that
provides the vacuum and HEPA filtered air for the drying function of the cabinet.
The IAS contains pumps, and control equipment including the data system, and termination points
for connection to mains power and to the system network and devices.
The 4 POE ethernet ports (located on the right side) are for connecting Ethernet cables (CAT 6) from
the cabinet to other cabinets, and for connecting SmartStation units.
A router device may also be connected to the (unpowered) ethernet socket to enable multiple
cabinets to be connected. The router also enables technicians to remotely login to the data system
for service and support purposes.
NOTE: When connecting multiple cabinets, it is important to connect via the router enabling remote
access.
