1. VITALINQ™ INTRODUCTION
The Vitalinq™ has been designed to meet the unique communication
needs that arise during diagnostic and interventional procedures. It
allows physicians to have a continuous two-way conversation with
control room personnel throughout procedures. Being capable of
picking up conversations in a normal tone of voice, the Vitalinq™
allows control room personnel to respond immediately to any
requests and provide up-to-the-moment communication on the
patient’s condition.
The Vitalinq™ communication system includes speakers and
microphones for the procedure room (LAB) and control room (TEK).
Personnel in the control room have the option of communicating through a headset or listening through an
overhead speaker and speaking through a desk microphone. Personnel in the procedure room do not need to
wear any type of device as their speech is picked up by a microphone attached to the video monitor (or monitor
cluster) opposite the physician and they hear through an overhead speaker. There is no need for talk-listen
switching, eliminating the risks posed by breaks in the conversation. Physicians and control room operators may
converse without interruption.
Integrated into the console, but operationally separate from the communication system is a music system. Music
can be played from any Bluetooth-enabled device such as a cell phone, or by connecting a cable to the line-out
from a device with a standard 3.5 mm headphone plug, such as a satellite radio receiver.

3 OPERATING THE VITALINQ™ SYSTEM
3.1 Description of the VITALINQ™ system
Refer to Section 6 “INSTALLATION” for installation instructions.
The Vitalinq™ is very easy to use and versatile. The standard system is composed of a pair of music
speakers and a communication speaker in both the procedure and control rooms. The speakers are
mounted overhead in the ceiling. The procedure room also has a microphone mounted to the monitor
(or monitor array) opposite the physician. The control room is where the console is located and is where
all devices are ultimately connected. Also in the control room and plugged into the console, are a desk
microphone and a headset. One desk microphone and one headset are included with each system.
On the front of the console are controls for the music system and controls for talking and listening to the
procedure room. At the rear of the console are several jacks and a thumbnail adjustable control for the
headset talk volume. Words in BLUE throughout this document refer to labels on the console.
The LISTEN control and HEADSET jack on each side of the front of the console work together. There
is an in-line mute switch provided with each headset to mute the headset microphone when desired. If
preferred,afootswitchcanbeusedinsteadofthein-linemuteswitch.ContactCustomerSupportifyou
would prefer to use a foot switch.
The volume of the headset earpiece is adjusted using the LISTEN volume control located adjacent to the
HEADSET jack. The volume for the procedure room communication speaker (used to transmit speech
from the control room) is controlled by the HEADSET TALK VOLUME switch located on the rear of
the console.
The CONTROLROOMLOUDSPEAKER region at the center on the front of the console is for control
of the desk microphone and ceiling speaker volume levels. In this section is an overhead LISTEN
VOLUME control for controlling the volume of the control room communication speaker. The
BUTTON and TALK VOLUME in this area are only used during setup.
Before continuing, Make sure the power cord is connected to the POWER connector on the rear of the
consoleandpluggedintoa120voltACoutlet.TheLED on the front of console will illuminate as soon
as power is available.

3.2 Headset settings and operation
Place the LISTEN VOLUME control into the OFFposition. (This turns off the overhead speaker in the
control room.)
Plug the corded headset with mute switch and coil cord into either the left or right headset jack. Turn the
headset LISTEN control for the jack you selected to the middle of its rotation. Put the headset on. The
headband slides in and out of the ear-cup. The headset microphone tube telescopes. Adjust the headset for
comfort and move the microphone tube tip so that it is near the corner of your mouth. Listen to someone
in the procedure room.
You will hear the people in the procedure room whether the in-line mute switch is in the mute position or
not. Adjust the headset LISTEN volume for a comfortable level by means of the volume control labeled
LISTEN. The left headset LISTEN volume control is for a headset plugged into the left jack and the right
one controls the right jack. The white slotted shaft on the rear of the console by the left foot switch jack
labeled HEADSET TALK controls the talk volume for both the left and right headsets.
3.3 Adjusting desk microphone and speaker sensitivity
The following steps are not required if only a headset is to be used and the desk microphone and
overhead communication speaker are not being used. This is often the case in shared control rooms.
VerifythedeskmicrophonecableisconnectedtotheBNCjackon
the rear of the console labeled LABMIC.
Temporarily unplug the headset. The CONTROLROOM
LOUDSPEAKER controls are at the lower front of the console
between the HEADSET jacks. Turn the LISTEN VOLUME
switch to 3 and listen to the procedure room. You should be able
tohearbackgroundnoise.PressthePUSH-TO-LOCKswitch
on the microphone to lock the microphone on. Turn the TALK
VOLUME control clockwise while pressing the BUTTON located
below it until you just barely hear feedback (a squeal). Release the
BUTTON. The TALK volume level is now set. As you switch the
LISTEN VOLUME louder or softer, the volume level in the lab
varies by an inverse amount to the volume in the control room in
ordertopreventfeedback.Whennished,unlockthemicrophone
bypressingthePUSH-TO-LOCKswitch.Youcannow,plugthe
headset back into the console.
Adjust the LISTEN VOLUME control (large knob in center)
to a comfortable level for people in the control room. The desk
microphone has two switches; a PUSH-TO-TALK and a PUSH-TO-
LOCKswitch.
To use the PUSH-TO-TALK switch (blue), press and hold the switch while speaking. The microphone
willtransmitwhiletheswitchishelddown.Releasetheswitchwhenyouarenishedspeaking.
UsethePUSH-TO-LOCKswitch(red)tolockthemicrophoneon.Themicrophonewillremainon
(keyed) until the switch is pressed again.
If you hear a hum or squeal, the TALK VOLUME control may be turned too far clockwise; turn it
down using your thumbnail or small screwdriver, as described in above. There are also instructions
printed on the front of the console for making this adjustment.

4 OPERATING THE MUSIC
4.1 Connecting a music source
1. On the device you plan to use for playing music, open the Bluetooth menu.
2. Verify that Bluetooth is turned on.
3. Typically, there are two sections displayed. One that shows devices you have previously paired with
and another area that shows devices than are available to pair with. Look for a device named BT5.0
and select it. You should now be paired with the Vitalinq Music Module via Bluetooth.
4. You can now enjoy listening to music from your favorite streaming service or from your personal
music library.
NOTE: The module will always look to automatically pair with last paired device if it’s available and in
range. If no previous device is available, it will look to pair with a different device.
4.2 Adjusting the volume
1. TurntheProcedureRoomandControlRoomvolumecontrolsontheVitalinqMusicModule
halfway up (12 o’clock position).
2. Set the volume on your music device all the way down.
3. Begin streaming music.
4. Now slowly adjust the volume on your music source to an appropriate level.
Fromthispoint,usethevolumecontrolsontheVitalinqMusicModuleforneadjustmentsin
each room.
4.3 Blue LED light
The blue LED light on the Vitalinq Music Module provides feedback on Bluetooth pairing.
• Steady light — a device is paired
• FlashingSlow—adeviceisstreaming
• FlashingFast—nothingispaired
4.4 Disconnecting a device
Only one device can be paired at any given time to the Vitalinq Music Module. To pair a new device,
the currently connected device will either need to be disconnected manually or it will need to go out of
range. Therefore, it is recommended that a device be disconnected when it is no longer being used for
streaming music.

7
To disconnect a device, go to the Bluetooth settings menu, select BT5.0 and select disconnect. On an
iPhone, this feature is available by selecting the “I” (information) icon next to the paired device and
then selecting “Disconnect”.
4.5 Receiving or making a cellular phone call
If you are using a cellular phone to stream music, and it is used to either make or receive a call, the
music will temporarily stop playing. It WILL NOT signal or communicate through the speakers. Music
will resume when call has ended.
4.6 Connecting to the AUX-In
Use a high quality 3.5mm cable to connect to the Vitalinq Music Module via the AUX IN jack on the
front of the console.
If a device is plugged into the 3.5mm jack, any device using the Bluetooth feature will automatically be
disconnected regardless of the status of the LED light.

5.2 Planning the Vitalinq™ installation
The Vitalinq™ has been designed for ease of installation. Please feel free to contact Vis-A-Vis customer
support at 800-319-6014 at anytime for assistance with an installation.
There are microphones and speakers for the procedure room and for the control room. The control room
utilizes a desk microphone or a headset (both are provided). The procedure room microphone is what
we refer to as the monitor microphone and is attached to the face of the monitor (or one of the monitors
in an array) opposite the physician. All cables are pre-terminated and may be run free or in conduit,
subject to local regulations.
Using the layout in “6.2 Installing Vitalinq™ speakers” and the instructions in 6.1.1 and 6.1.2, select
locations for the speakers and monitor microphone. Always check for adequate space in the ceiling
above the locations selected for the speakers. Follow any applicable local regulations regarding
securing the speakers.
The monitor microphone is directional and must be mounted with its long axis vertical.
5.2.1 Procedure room (LAB)
In the procedure room, the monitor microphone should be located on the video monitor directly across
from where the physician would typically stand and attached to the face of the monitor in the bezel area
withit’slongaxisorientedvertically.See“6.3.2Monitormicrophoneplacement”.Forthephysicianto
hear best, the communication speaker should be near the physician but more than six feet away from the
monitor microphone and the door to the control room. The music speakers should be placed about four
feet on either side of the physician, usually at the ends of the table. Follow local regulations regarding
securing these devices.
5.2.2 Control room (TEK)
In the control room, the operator’s desk microphone should be placed in a position convenient for the
operator.Forbestoperation,thecommunicationspeakershouldbelocatedintheceilingmorethansix
feet away from the desk microphone and the door to the procedure room. The music speakers should be
placed in the ceiling, three or four feet on either side of the operator. If provided, the optional auxiliary
wireless headset should be located near the console. Follow local regulations regarding securing
these devices.
5.2.3 Control room console
The cables from the speakers and monitor microphone need to connect to the rear of the desk console.
See typical layout on following page. If you are installing before the walls are sheet-rocked, use a
junctionboxneartheconsoleandoneintheceiling.Connectthemwitha1”conduitifrequired.Cables
can be pulled through by staggering the connectors. Follow local regulations regarding securing
these devices.
The communication system has volume controls for headset and overhead devices. Headset jacks are on
the front of the console and foot switch / desk microphone jacks are on the rear.

5.3 Installing Vitalinq™ speakers
5.3.1 Installing speakers in ceiling
There are two modular, gray eight conductor jacks on the communication speaker and music speakers.
The Ethernet cables can be connected to the speakers in any convenient sequence. The speakers mount
in the ceiling.
1. Determine placement of all speakers. In the procedure room, a communications speaker should
be located in the general area near the physician and more than six feet away from the monitor
microphone and the door to the control room (ideally above and just behind the physician). A right
music speaker should be located at the table end that would be to the right of the physician, and a
left music speaker at the table end that would be to the left of the physician.
2. In the control room, the communication speaker should be more than six feet away from the desk
microphone and the door to the procedure room. Music speakers should be located left and right of
where the operator is typically seated.
3. Remove the ceiling tiles (if present) in the locations you have determined for the ceiling devices.
4. Inthespeakerbox,thecommunicationspeakersarepackedindividuallyandaremarkedCOMM.
The two (2) pairs of music speakers are packed individually, two left and two right and are marked
MUSIC.Aspeakersupportplateisprovidedforeachspeaker.
* Be careful when handling the support plate as the edges can be sharp!!
5. Take the ceiling tiles (if present) you removed in step 2 and draw a straight line on the backside
from corner to corner. Place the support plate over the lines you drew on the tile and line up the
template with the lines to center the template. The plate must not extend past the edges of the tile.
Mark the circle and cut it out with a knife or drywall saw. The hole should be 6-5/8” diameter.
Remove the grille of the speaker by rotating the securing legs on the back of the speaker and gently
pushing them down towards the speaker grille. Replace the legs after
grille removal to their original position. Put the speaker in the hole from
the front side of the tile. Position the support plate over the speaker on the
rear of the tile. Rotate out the legs on the back and screw down the four
Phillips head screws on the front to pull the legs against the support plate.
Be careful not to over tighten the screws. If needed after installation, the
grill may be removed with a bent paperclip.
6. Install all speakers into selected locations.
All speakers have dual GRAY jacks, and there is no particular sequence for interconnection. This
allowsformuchexibilityincablerouting.Connectallofthedevicesintheprocedureroom(LAB),

5.5 Installing the Vitalinq™ console
5.5.1 Front of Console
Plug the headset into a headset jack on the front of the console closest to the operator’s normal working
location. If you will also be using a desk microphone, make sure that it is NOT plugged in on the
same side as the headset. See next section.
Note:
The Console is usually placed on the control room counter top near the operator. If this is not
possible, it may be placed in another location convenient for operation of music controls and if
necessary, an optional remote console (MC-11 Mini Console) can be purchased for the headset (and
foot switch if one is used) so they can be located within reach of the control room operator or even in
another room. See section titled OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT at the end of this document.
Contact Vis-A-Vis at 800-319-6014 or email support@vitalinq.com to learn more about this option.
