The DT-4500 is IPX7 compliant and can be submerged in 1m of water for 30 
minutes without seepage, while remaining in operating condition 
Operating Instructions  
The DT-4500 ambulatory transceiver is attached to the patient through the ECG lead 
system. The ECG circuitry, based on the previous DT-4000 front-end circuitry, 
consists of 6 lead wires and 2 I/O interfaces for external medical devices. The 
battery-powered transceiver enclosure is carried in a gown pocket or disposable 
paper pouch. The digital ECG patient parameters are transmitted to the Access Point 
Transceiver, which then transmits the data via Ethernet network system (cable and 
hub) to the hospital’s data distribution network. The 9V replaceable battery, or 
rechargeable battery, should last at least 48 hours. 
Antenna Installation 
The DT-4500 transmits in the 608-614 MHz frequency range. The omnidirectional antenna is a part of 
the lead set system, with each lead wire paired with an antenna wire. Transceiver output power and 
system operation requirements are defined by the FCC. Therefore, it is essential that the antenna 
provided not be modified or altered in any way by the end user.
