8.3 SYSTEM CONNECTION
WARNING: Confirm that the power is OFF on the TransAeris before connecting the patient
cable and FrictionLoc connectors.
The following is the recommended procedure to connect the TransAeris system:
8.3.1 TransLoc electrode connection preparation (Intensive Care Unit)
Confirm that proximal end of the TransLoc electrode is similar to Figure 10.
• The silicon protective tube should remain on the conductive pin until it is ready
to use in the ICU.
• If the silicon protective tube has been removed and the suture has been trimmed
from the conductive pin, proceed to section 8.3.2.

remove the silicon protective tube.
• The conductive pin will now be exposed.
