Overview

The ZeroWire G2 System allows wireless delivery of video signals from the DVI or 3G-SDI output of an

endoscopic camera processor or other video source to the DVI input of a video display. It operates as a

60Ghz-based wireless HD system in compliance with FCC (Part 15) rules governing the unlicensed 57-64

GHz band which is located in the millimeter-wave (mmW) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

A System is composed of a Transmitter and Receiver pair. The Transmitter and Receiver are designed to be

mounted on the top rear edge of a display. The Transmitter may obtain its input video signal from either

an endoscopic camera processor or the display’s DVI or SDI re-drive outputs. The Receiver’s output is

connected to a display’s DVI input The units are powered from an NDS 24 VDC power supply or through

the ‘Y’ adapter cable*.

The ‘Y’ adapter cable is described on page 6. A typical installation is shown on page 9.

*Note: The ‘Y’ adapter cables are only for use with NDS displays that are powered by an NDS 24

VDC power supply.

Setup

Linking the Transmitter and Receiver

Prior to placing the ZeroWire G2 system in service, the Transmitter and Receiver pair must be linked.

Once a Transmitter and Receiver pair is linked, they remain linked until the Transmitter is explicitly linked

to another Receiver or the Receiver is explicitly linked to another Transmitter.

Note: If a linked pair is turned off they will automatically link to each other when they are turned on again.

Linking Procedure:

1. Connect a DVI or SDI video source to the Transmitter unit and a display to the Receiver unit’s DVI

output (See Figure 1).

2. Press and hold the “LINK” button (see Figure 2) on the Receiver unit until its linking LED begins flashing

blue rapidly, then release. At this point, the user has 60 seconds to move to the other unit and press

the LINK button on that device.

3. Next, press and hold the “LINK” button (see Figure 2 for location) on the Transmitter unit until its

linking LED begins flashing blue rapidly, then release.

4. When the Transmitter and Receiver units identify each other and begin to link, both the Status LED and

Link LED on both units will flash rapidly for several seconds. Once the link is established, each unit’s

linking LED turns off.

Note: ZeroWire G2 Transmitter and Receiver units are not compatible with earlier ZeroWire

Transmitter and Receiver units.

With the linking completed, the status LEDs should turn blue and the source image should appear on the

display. This completes the basic setup.

Note: The Transmitter and Receiver are not limited to line-of-sight operation, i.e., the pair will operate

reliably despite the presence of intervening obstacles. However, neither unit should be completely

surrounded by metallic objects.

that a display that is hard wired to the video source be immediately available whenever a surgical

procedure is in progress.

Performance

Performance:

ZeroWire G2 HD Wireless Video System is intended and optimized for use in surgical or procedure rooms.

Use outside of a clinical environment is not recommended.

The following steps will help you to achieve optimal performance of the ZeroWire G2 system:

1. Mount both components at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from the floor.

2. Ideally, both the transmitter and receiver should be at the same height.

3. For a reliable video link, please follow the setup guidelines under Positioning and Orientation on pages

10 and 11.

4. The transmitter and receiver should be facing each other and be visible to each other in free air space.

5. For non line of sight applications, we recommend that the Transmitter and Receiver be located within

6 feet (1.8 m) or less from the walls.

9

Page 18

Positioning and Orientation

Due to the shape of the antenna’s signal field, both Transmitter and Receiver units should be installed so

they are aligned vertically and horizontally within ±10°.

Vertical Alignment:

Vertical alignment should be within ±10° of vertical.

Horizontal Alignment:

Horizontal alignment should be within ±10° of horizontal.

Positioning and Orientation (continued)

Elevation:

The Transmitter and Receiver should be positioned at least 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor, be at the same

height, and, preferably, with the Transmitter and Receiver front edges parallel and facing each other.

Separation:

ZeroWire G2 operates correctly with a Transmitter and Receiver separation of up to 30 feet (9.1 m).

However, in the case of most OR environments, best results are achieved with a Transmitter and

Receiver separation distance of up to 8 feet (2.4 m).

Non Line of Sight Operation

The ZeroWire G2 System can maintain a wireless link with partial obstructions. However, best performance

is realized with a clear line-of-sight between units. In an OR environment, the ceiling mounted boom

system and its spring arm junctions, along with surgical light heads, are large metal structures that can

potentially block the wireless signals if they obstruct the line-of-sight between the Transmitter and

Receiver (see illustration below). Preferably, surgical lights should be positioned out of the way or raised

above the line-of-sight. If an object must obstruct the line-of-sight, the best option is to position it half way

between the Transmitter and the Receiver.

OR rooms whose walls and/or ceiling are constructed with metal sheets may reduce ZeroWire G2

performance. This condition possibly can be mitigated by moving the Transmitter and Receiver closer to

each other, setting their line-of-sight to 0 degrees (see page 10), and ensuring that there are no

obstructions between the Transmitter and the Receiver.

12

Page 21

Avoiding Co-Channel Interference

If the ZeroWire G2 deployment is a typical one-system per room, there are essentially no restrictions. The

transmitter’s Channel Selection feature picks the channel that is least susceptible to interference from the

two available channels based on the result of its scan at power on.

Some of the factors affecting isolation of the ZeroWire G2 channels are listed below.

1. The thickness and material of the room walls.

2. The opening and closing of room doors.

3. The room’s ceiling structure and the materials used in its construction.

ZeroWire G2 Transmitter/Receiver pairs must be installed in the same room. Cross room operation is

not supported. When two Transmitter/Receiver pairs are installed in a given room, each pair must be

linked separately, one pair at a time, linking the second pair after successfully linking the first. There

is no need to turn off the first linked pair before powering or linking the second pair.

Channel Usage

The recommendations listed below should be used to determine the appropriate setting.

1. ZeroWire G2 Transmitter and/or Receiver units cannot be used with earlier ZeroWire Transmitter and/

or Receiver units.

2. A maximum of two ZeroWire G2 systems may be operated in the same room. The transmitters and

receivers should be separated by at least 3 feet (1 m) within the room.

3. Groups of two ZeroWire G2 systems may be set in multiple rooms, providing the rooms are spaced at

least 25 feet (7.6 m) apart.

4. ZeroWire G2 Transmitter and/or Receiver should not be installed in metal cabinets or surrounded by

metallic objects, as this will prevent the Transmitter from communicating with the Receiver.

Multi System Installation

Multiple Systems:

When two systems are to be installed in a given OR use the following procedure:

1. If the Transmitter and Receiver units have not been linked apply power to one Transmitter and one

Receiver then follow the Linking Procedure described on page 8.

2. Turn second Transmitter and Receiver pair on and repeat the Linking Procedure. Transmitter and

Receiver pairs must be linked one pair at a time. We recommend that linked pairs be labeled to

facilitate installation and troubleshooting.

Signal Strength and On Screen Diagnostic (OSD) Messages

When a receiver is connected to a monitor, self-explanatory diagnostic messages are displayed in

the lower left corner of the screen to inform the user of the receiver’s current status. The messages

will be displayed for 15 seconds, with the exception of “Search for transmitter wireless signal failed”

and “No wireless signal detected: ss=0 vm=NONE.”

“Search for transmitter wireless signal failed” and “No wireless signal detected: ss=0 vm=NONE” will be

displayed until remedial action is taken. When the “No wireless signal detected: ss=0 vm=NONE” message

and/or the 1-bar graph are displayed on the screen, the wireless link is unreliable and requires immediate

remedial action.

The Signal Strength bar graph is displayed in the lower right corner of the receiver’s monitor for

60 seconds at power up. It is also displayed when the link is established following a link disconnect. When

the link quality is poor or bad the bar graph is automatically displayed to alert the user that remedial

action is required.

The bar graph may be activated manually by a single touch of the receiver’s LINK button.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC ) Tables

ZeroWire G2 has been tested in an OR environment and did not interfere with electrosurgical, ultrasound,

X-Ray, medical displays and life monitoring equipment. Neither did the aforementioned equipment

interfere with ZeroWire G2. Additionally, since ZeroWire G2 operates in 57 – 64 GHz, typically wireless LAN

and mobile phones will not cause interference as they operate outside the ZeroWire G2 frequency range.

However, the presence of a source of interference within ZeroWire G2 frequency range may result in

intermittent operation and reduced image quality or the link could go down while the interference exists.

Prior to any procedure in the OR, it is required that any such equipment be turned off and verify that the

system operates as expected. If any anomalous behavior is observed, it must be corrected prior to using

the system in any surgical procedures.

ZeroWire G2 transmitters should be separated by at least 20 inches (0.5 m). ZeroWire G2 transmitters

(Transmitter) or receivers (Receiver) should not be installed in metal cabinets or surrounded by metallic

objects, as this will prevent the Transmitter from communicating with the Receiver.

During installation the ZeroWire G2 link video quality should be tested with the Transmitter and Receiver

at different orientation angles, acceptable orientation angles are shown on page 10. Non Line of Sight

Operation is discussed on page 12. We recommend that the system be thoroughly tested prior to using it

in any surgical procedures.

Do not use power supplies or cable accessories with the ZeroWire G2 other than those specified in this

manual. Excessive leakage currents, elevated electromagnetic emissions, or insufficient interference

immunity may occur.

All medical electronic devices, including ZeroWire G2, must conform to the requirements of IEC 60601-1-2.

Precautions, adherences to the EMC guideline information provided in this manual and verification of all

medical devices in simultaneous operation are required to ensure the electromagnetic compatibility and

co-existence of all other medical devices prior to a surgical procedure.

The EMC tables on the following four pages are provided for your reference.
