The Excel Medical Electronics CarePanel (CarePanel) is a multi-use computer tablet. The CarePanel is a mobile

computer with display, circuitry, and battery in a single unit. The CarePanel is equipped with a touchscreen thus

finger gestures can substitute for the use of a computer mouse and keyboard. The CarePanel also includes physical

buttons to control basic features such as speaker volume and power, a camera, and ports for network and device

communications and to charge the battery.

The CarePanel can be utilized as a standard computer tablet with no additional components. The CarePanel can also

host software applications and as such be utilized in conjunction with other platforms. The design of the CarePanel

allows it to very effectively be utilized with EME’s BedComm platform that consists of server software and Mobile

Vitals Capture software installed on the CarePanel. The CarePanel is manufactured for Excel Medical Electronics to

serially connect to a vital signs monitor and the Mobile Vitals Capture software transmits data wirelessly from the

tablet to the BedComm server where it can then be sent to an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) or other data

repository. A barcode scanner can be connected to the CarePanel and utilized as part of the BedComm platform for

more efficient data entry.

The CarePanel is indicated for use in data collection, display and information management either independently or

through networking with other devices. The CarePanel is not intended for patient monitoring purposes nor is it

intended to control any of the devices to which it is connected.

NOTE: Clinical users need to be trained separately on the operation of any medical device connected to the

CarePanel according to the training requirements of those medical devices.

WARNING: The CarePanel or any associated accessories should not be modified in any way or used other than as

indicated in this manual. Any modification to the hardware can prevent proper functioning and cause damage to the

connected devices.

suggested. Please refer to the Installation Manual for instruction on connecting to

the CarePanel.

Power Cable and Power Block.

Used to charge the CarePanel from a standard wall outlet. The power connector is

located in the rear of the CarePanel. Please refer to the Installation Manual for

instruction on connecting to the CarePanel.

The CarePanel battery and Wi-Fi indicators are displayed on the bottom right corner of the screen. Tapping either

of these indicators will pop up the battery life percentage (0 –100% with 100% indicating the fullest charge), and

Wi-Fi connectivity (0-4 bars with0 being the lowest and 4 being the highest quality of connection).

The CarePanel is a flexible device that can be utilized in various environments. It should be handled with care at all

times. This manual is designed to direct usage of the CarePanel in a safe and effective manner.

CAUTION: Do not operate the CarePanel without completely reading and understanding these instructions. Please

pay particular attention to all cautions and warnings.

These measures can extend the life of the CarePanel:

Do not store the CarePanel in direct sunlight for long periods.

Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above 45°C / 113°F.

Avoid direct exposure to water, sand, dust and other environmental hazards.

Keep the CarePanel away from food and beverages.

Do not try to dry the CarePanel in a microwave oven should it get wet as this may cause fire or explosion.

Keep the covers closed on the connectors, doors, and slots when they are not in use to prevent dust or

dirt entry.

Prevent heavy and/or sharp objects from falling onto or being put onto the display.

Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards or break

the plastic shell of the CarePanel.

Be careful to keep power cables neatly bundled away when charging the CarePanel to prevent tripping.

Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts or ventilation openings and

prevent proper operation.

Each year, inspect the power cable, power block, and batteries for any kind of damage, overheating or corrosion.

Replace as needed.

power source.

WARNING:

•Do not connect the CarePanel to an AC outlet that is controlled using a switch or dimmer.

•Do not remove the grounding conductor from the power plug.

•Do not use extension cords or adapters.

•The power cable, supply, and plug must be intact and undamaged.

•To avoid the risk of electrical shock, the equipment must only be connected to supply mains with

protective earth.

•Cords and cables can be serious tripping hazards. Route the cords and cables in your work area so that

they are not a tripping hazard to you or anyone else.

•Check all power cords periodically and replace any frayed or damaged cords.

•Make sure cords are not being crushed, stretched or kinked because all these problems can create shock

and fire hazards.

•Battery life - the time a CarePanel will run before it must be recharged.

•Battery lifespan - the total number of cycles the battery will last before it must be replaced.
