Section II - Precautions and Warnings • The Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator is designed to be operated as specified in this manual. Protection provided by the safety devices in the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator may be impaired if the device is not used in accordance with the directions contained in this manual. • The Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator enclosure is not waterproof. Avoid spilling liquid of any kind onto the front panel of the device. Likewise, the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator is powered from an AC power source. Avoid the potential for contact between liquid and any external surface of the device while connected to the mains source. • The surface quality of the interior of the reference blackbody targets is critical to their operation as efficient infrared radiators. Care should be exercised when working near the entrance to the blackbody targets to ensure that no contact is made with the surface inside the rubber flaps. • In the event of a blown fuse, replace the fuse with a fuse that exactly matches the rated voltage, current, and form factor as specified in the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator Specifications section of this manual. Make sure the device is disconnected from the AC power source before changing a blown fuse. • This device should not be used in the presence of flammable anesthetics. There is risk of an explosion in the presence of these anesthetics. • There are no user-serviceable components in this device. Do not remove the front panel. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. • Use only the supplied power module with this device. • When prompted to insert the Genius 2 Thermometer into one of the blackbody targets, there is a 60 second window of time to accomplish the insertion. If the time delay exceeds this period, the procedure will be terminated. • Prior to checking/calibrating a Genius 2 Thermometer, ensure that the thermometer lens is clean. Effective cleaning will ensure that the calibration tolerances are correctly verified. Refer to the cleaning instructions in the Genius 2 Thermometer operating manual. • When installing a Genius 2 probe cover on to the tip of the Genius 2 Thermometer, use only covers that are in a cassette and not released. Try to avoid all hand contact with the probe covers in order to prevent inaccurate readings. Do not reuse probe covers. Use only Genius 2 probe covers. • Let the Genius 2 Checker /Calibrator warm up after power-up for at least 15 minutes before use. Make sure that the Genius 2 Thermometers, probe covers and the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator have had enough time to equilibrate to room temperature before proceeding. Allow a longer warm up period if the device or thermometers were at the extreme limits of allowed ambient temperature. The portability of the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator will allow for relocation of the device to areas that meet the ambient temperature requirements. • To maintain Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) conformance, use a USB flash drive that is CE marked and meets EN55022 standard. • Do not put or rest the Genius 2 Thermometer on the surface of the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator at any time. The thermal sensors inside the thermometer probe tip will detect the heat transferred from the blackbody targets through the front panel surface. This will cause instability of the thermometer sensors, which will produce erroneous temperature readings. • The Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator may only be used indoors, in an area free from drafts and wide ambient temperature swings. • The USB port on the front panel is intended to be used with only a USB Flash memory drive. No other USB devices should be inserted into the USB port.

Check Calibration This menu option performs the calibration check of a Genius 2 Thermometer, and if required, automatically recalibrates the thermometer using a series of step-by-step screens. Before entering this menu option, make sure that the required equipment listed in Section IV is available. This includes a cassette with unused (new) probe covers.

Step 1: Warm up of infrared blackbody targets. This screen is displayed while the targets are checked for proper temperature. Both the Low Target and the High Target are checked, and when they are at the correct temperature, the screen will change to “OK” for each target. There is a prompt to press the encoder knob to continue to the next screen. If either target cannot reach the correct temperature, an Error message screen will be displayed. If this happens, check to be sure the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator is within the correct ambient (room) temperature range, and has been given at least 15 minutes of warm up time since power was switched on.

Step 2: Inspect the Genius 2 Thermometer that will be tested. Ensure that the thermometer lens is not scratched and is free from ear wax and/or other contaminants. If the thermometer lens is “dirty”, clean the lens according to the instructions in the Genius 2 Thermometer operating manual. Once the thermometer lens is clean, connect the Genius 2 Thermometer to the Checker/Calibrator by plugging the round end of the thermometer interface cable into the round connector socket on the Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator front panel (refer to Figure 3). Open the battery door of the thermometer by using a small Phillips screwdriver. Remove the batteries and set aside. Connect the other end of the thermometer probe cable into the battery compartment, making sure the connector “snaps” into place securely. Refer to Figure 2 in Section V. Note: A new probe cover must be used prior to every target insertion. Finger oils on previously used probe covers or re-used probe covers that have been heated by Genius 2 Checker/Calibrator target can cause erroneous readings which may result in a failed calibration check or recalibration. Therefore, it is extremely important that a new probe cover is used each time.

Step 3: Press the encoder knob to continue, then install a new Genius 2 probe cover onto the Genius 2 Thermometer. Make sure to use a cover that is held in the cassette. Once the cover is on the thermometer, do not point the probe tip at any object, including hands, fingers or LCD display, as this will cause an inaccurate temperature reading. Inspect the probe cover to make sure it is fully seated (no space between the cover and the tip base) and no holes, tears, or wrinkles are present in the plastic film. When the cover is on, insert the probe tip into the Low temperature target, which will have a blinking LED indicator next to it. Make sure that the probe tip is fully inserted into the target well. Refer to Figure 3 for proper insertion. In order to avoid a time-out error, insert the covered probe tip into the target within 60 seconds from the time the encoder knob is pressed.
