WARNING
To reduce the risks associated with fire and explosion:
• Do not use in an explosive environment - monitor is not designed to be intrinsically safe.
To reduce the risks associated with medical device malfunction:
• Persons with heart pacemaker devices should never use this monitor.
To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage and fire:
• Use only the power supply provided by 3M and specified for the country of use.
• Do not position the monitor accessories or other equipment where unplugging the power supply is difficult.
• Always locate the power source (socket or outlet) near the equipment. The power supply plug serves as
the disconnect device.
• Do not modify or attempt to service the power supply or monitor; there are no user serviceable parts.
• Do not use the power supply if damaged;
• Replace power supply if damaged using only 3M supplied parts.
• Do not use the 3M™ Constant Monitors WSMONITOR1, WSMONITOR 2, WSMONITOR3 or their power
supplies outdoors in wet/humid environments.
• Do not use the Constant Monitors WSMONITOR1, WSMONITOR 2, WSMONITOR3 or their power supplies
outside of the operating conditions listed in this user’s guide.
• Always follow instructions for installation as stated in this user’s guide.
CAUTION
To reduce the risks associated with environmental contamination:
• Dispose of this monitor in accordance with all applicable local and government regulations.

Introduction
• Monitors can check up to two wrist strap systems and one work surface,
depending on the model.
• Compatible with most standard wrist straps.
• Easy to use: Simply plug in the wrist strap.
• Easy to install: Attach the monitor boxes to the bench with included hardware,
connect the mat and plug it in.
Damage to electronic devices is caused by static electricity from people.
Connecting people to ground directs static electricity away from devices.
Constant Monitors are designed to constantly test the connection of the person,
the wrist band and the coiled cord to help ensure that people remain grounded.
Constant Monitor WSMONITOR1 uses a solid state impedance design to
constantly test the connection integrity of the entire ground system including the
person, the wrist band and the coiled cord. Constant Monitors WSMONITOR2
and WSMONITOR3 also provide work surface monitoring. This system is fully
automatic and activates when a wrist strap is plugged into the unit. A green light
indicates connection and a red light indicates there is no connection. The unit is
powered and grounded by the AC adapter.

Operation
• Place a wrist band on your wrist and plug the coiled cord banana plug into
the monitor’s banana jack. The monitor will display a green light when a
functional wrist strap with good skin contact is connected to the unit.
• The unit will sound an alarm and display a red light if the wrist strap becomes
defective or if the person is not in contact with the band.
• Unplug the wrist strap coiled cord from the unit to stop the alarm.
• Monitor will alarm if the continuity from the monitor to the mat to ground is
lost.
Calibration / Verification
Adjustments or calibration are not required for the 3M™ Constant Monitors
WSMONITOR1, WSMONITOR2, WSMONITOR3. The TMTOOL unit
simulates a correctly functional person and wrist strap (Accept) and an open
circuit (Reject). The TMTOOL also simulates high resistance for verification of
your work surface.
