Well done, Mate. We're getting there!

But not "restricted", I notice. Not that I'm objecting (but others have been known to before).

They are all in the public domain.
I didn't bother adding Alaris as their pages are all password protected.

Thanks Huw for this. Yes long awaited resource.

LAIQ

One of the free SM resources i've ever seen.

Thanks Huw.

Thanks Huw.

thanks Huw

I have word that they may have been, er ... hacked!

Meanwhile, please allow me to cut and paste this comment (which was made in response to a cheerful offer to upload a particular manual right here on the forum) into its "proper place":-

Who have service manual of Aloka SSD-3500SX ultrasound, my e-mail is minhvu_kc@yahoo.com
thank

Welcome to the forum, Phuan.

It looks like you're after manuals, then.

You may have some luck with Aloka manuals by contacting MIUS ... not so sure about .pdf's, though.

See also your Messages.

thank's Huw....very useful information for me...

Please do not make a post looking for manuals in this thread.

Start a NEW TOPIC instead.

Thanks Huw

Sadly, it looks like there's some weirdness going on, Huw.

I've yet to successfully download any .pdf from Medi-server, the NBN link doesn't call up the manuals page any more, and the manuals also seem to have disappeared from the Ardus site.

OK ... it was good while it lasted!

Thankfully, Reza's site still delivers the goods!

Yes, it's unfortunate.
Perhaps they got more traffic than they expected.

I will remove the links.

Of course my skeptical mind can't help but wonder if they have been "got at" in some way. Stranger things have been known, after all.

I'm hoping that someone was able to download them all whilst they were on offer, and squirrel them all away!

Or at least that a few people were able to make good use of some of them (as I am assured was the case).

I did download a couple myself, but not all, unfortunately. But (as I have mentioned before) hope to turn my attention to this issue once I get around to it.

But I can't fathom why Medi-server didn't (yet?) get off the ground, though. There's something weird going on there, for sure. So much initial enthusiasm, then ... nothing (or so it would seem).

Thanks Huw, is a very useful information

Thanx Huw. Much appreciated and very useful..

Ardus is back ... but they're only users manuals, unfortunately.

few Manuals are available at following link

Thank you for the information Huw, very helpful.

Here's another resource...although mainly user manuals...other useful stuff on the site too.

http://frankshospitalworkshop.com/equipment.html

Thank you very much.Is is very valuable

Has anyone downloaded any manual from www.BlueBiomed.com SUCCESSFULLY? It seems all the manuals are temporarily unavailable!!!

I agree. I have never downloaded any manual from BlueBiomed.

BluBiomed has mistake in download

We can only wonder what happened to BlueBiomed ... I only wish I had downloaded all of his stuff when it was possible to do so!

Hello Huw,
This is a great job. Can you please help me with the user and service manuals for the Datascope passport patient monitor? I would be glad to hear from you. Please mail me at anomahmichael@yahoo.com
Thanks
Mike

Hi does anyone have service manual for Acoma arco sphere skull unit and Phillips Optimus 50/65/80 manuals,I have a large number of other manuals to swap info thanks.
russ

Please does anyone have Technical Manuals for a siemens mobilette mobile x-ray for a UK charity working with a faith-based hospital in Ghana?

If so please can you get in touch

Many thanks

Peter

Hello Peter,

Please inbox me the details. I work with Mediwise Int'l, the official rep of Siemens in Ghana.

Akofa.

thanks Huw

I have been sending service manuals to frankshospitalworkshop and the response time for these manuals to be made available is excellent, please cc any manuals that you are forwarding to frank and help others at the same time.

I added that link to the first post - thanks Neil.

Huw, what I am saying is for people to cc their files to frank to his gmail account,

Yes, I can see that

Has Frank posted any of those recently donated manuals on his site yet, Neil?

all of them

That's good news.

OK guys ... let's get all those manuals uploaded to Frank's site!

If the uploading routine looks like too much hassle, you can always do as Neil suggests and simply send a copy to Frank's email address when sending to someone else. Not much work involved there!

Some sort of restrictions at your end, I wonder?

Hi Geof, I have seen new manuals in Frank site but some manuals who Datex and Drager can't open it.
Hugo

Yes ... it looks like there are "404 - Not Found" errors when some manuals are called.

I can only suggest an email to Frank, letting him know whenever such an error is found.

I have emailed Frank and hopefully this is only a minor problem and can be resolved soon.

if still have problem, i suggest that you share them in 4shared.com

Frank has informed me that there may be some problems with the links, let me know which manuals you cannot access and I will inform him, Thanking you in advance.

Forget BlueBiomed ... it was yet another site that promised much, but (for some reason) became unworkable within a short period of time. I notice that 'registration' is now required.

Hopefully, Frank's site will be able to continue.

And don't forget to CC to Frank and other resources when sending manuals to other techs if they are not already available.

thank you

They have changed the web-site address to: http://apps.gehealthcare.com/servlet/ClientServlet

Naughty buggers......
Here I was looking for a case manual and they went changing the login without lettin EBME know...


the new landing page looks like some amateur went doing some html... It looks like sheet...

Summer Job intern? Probably some Microsoft Certified drone.

Hi Neil,

I am working with Hamilton Rafael ventilator, can you help me with the service manual .

Thanks

Carlito

Sorry, we don't have Hamilton here

anyone has tips on "care and maintenance" of sp02? I need to educate my endusers on this as many of our spo02 are defective due to mishandling. need help:
please email to me:

khalil@medivest.com.my

It is easier for people to reply if you could be more specific and add the model numbers

ok i found it in franks web
it was babylog 8000. Is there any other web site like franks that we can download service manuals

If you find one, Serdar, please be sure to upload to Frank's site as well, so manuals become available to anyone who has need of them.

What we are trying to do here is share the wealth!

Meanwhile, you may not be aware of it yet, but a number of other manual hosting sites have now retired for some strange reason. So, if your people are able to accept uploads, and host .pdf manuals, making them generally available to the biomed community, then please go ahead and make that clear.

Like the internet itself, the more manual library repositories there are out there, the more likely any one of them shall remain available at any given time.

To be frank (could that be a pun, folks?), I suspect that some of the sites previously offering manuals have been "encouraged to desist" by one or other of the Big Players. But (as I say), just like downloading MP3 files, if every biomed is doing it ... then what can "they" do?

Who knows, ultimately all manufacturers will make their own .pdf libraries available (easily accessible, and free of charge) ... just as some* of them already do. Perhaps we can "encourage" that sea-change by continuing to bang-on about it right here!

* Welch Allyn, for example (and there are a couple of others).

Joe Leiers site

Thank you very much for the resources. It has been helping me a lot on my job. Please keep up the good job....

Two years on, I see that Ardus is still good to go for Users Manuals.

Still no joy with the Blue Dude, though. I can't work out what's going on there.
