AcQMap
ACUTUS MEDICAL, INC. · Model 800695
AcQMap to SmartAblate Generator Adapter.
Intended use: A small connector used to join the cable(s) from a handpiece/electrode(s) (active and/or return) to the generator of an electrosurgical system. This device will typically be used when the system components are from different manufacturers and the connections are not compatible. This is a reusable device.
Key tips
- ·Never defeat or bypass a return-electrode monitoring (REM) alarm to finish a case - it's a direct burn risk.
- ·Verify OR table battery backup - a table that loses power mid-procedure is a real, documented incident type.
- ·Track surgical light lamp-hours rather than waiting for failure - a sudden failure mid-case is avoidable.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
No or poor mapping / charge-density map will not build
HighSymptoms: Noisy or missing catheter signals, ultrasound-derived chamber geometry incomplete, map fails.
Root cause: AcQMap catheter (ultrasound transducers / electrodes) contact or damage, a patient-cable / junction-box fault, or amplifier noise.
Localisation / reference fault
MediumSymptoms: Catheter or surface-patch localisation drifts, geometry distorts.
Root cause: Surface reference patches poorly applied, or a localisation-field / patch-box fault.
Workstation / software fault
MediumSymptoms: Application hangs, map export fails, will not start a case.
Root cause: Workstation PC or software fault.
Display / recording-system integration fault
LowSymptoms: No map to the EP recording system or the lab displays.
Root cause: Video / network output fault.

- ·Table hydraulic / mechanical inspection
- ·Annual electrical safety test and full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Poor mapping signal / geometry
- Confirm catheter contact and inspect the catheter for damage.
- Reseat the catheter at the junction box.
- Re-apply the surface reference patches on clean, dry skin.
- Check for EMI in the lab and the workstation grounding.
- Replace the catheter or cable as isolated.
Symptom: Software / workstation fault
- Restart the workstation.
- Confirm the case data and licensing.
- Reinstall or repair the software if it will not launch.
- Check the display and network outputs to the EP system.
- Contact Acutus support with the error.
