nsmitter Buttons The transmitter is equipped with the following two push buttons: at lfyou press both transmitter buttons simultaneously, a I mV cali- bration pulse is superimposed on the ECG at the MULTIVIEW WORKSTATION. The red sraflalert button allows the patient to initiate a serious alarm lone at the MULTI- VIEW WORKSTATION. You can silence this alarm by clicking on the Alarm Silence button at the MULTIVIEW WORKSTATION. In addition. the message STAFFALERT is dis- played in the patient’s waveform channel, The white retarding button allows you to initiate a recording. For a timed recording press this button less than 3 seconds: for a continuous recording, press it longer than 3 seconds. The two LEDs next to Ihe recording button blink once for a timed recording and three times for a contin- uous recording. About th Transmitter tatus Patterns The transmitter is equipped with four light indicators (LEDs). which show the transmitter’s operating status and any malfunction such as a lead-oft" condition, The following table describes the various LED patterns and their corresponding causes.

WVVOHAS‘AriGiv‘ (We [WV Oammi VEt nsmitter Operating Modes The transmitter functions in one oftwo operating modes, In "nor- mal’ mode, the transmitter is connected to the patient collecting data, which it relays to the MULTIVIEW WORKSTATION, ln ‘stafi" mode. the transmitter is not connected to a patient and you can diagnose its status. Normal Operating Mode When you first insert a battery into a transmitter. it performs a self-test and, ifit is completed successfully. all ofthe LEDs flash for a brieftnoment. However, ifan error is detected. the transmit» ter LEDs first flash all at once and Ihen alternate with an error- specific pattern (see page 2-6) An error message may also appear at the MULTIVIEW WORKSTATION. For a list ofpossible messages and suggestions on how to solve common error conditions. con- sult page 2—18. lfyou cannot correct the problem. take the trans- mitter out ofoperation and contact your Biomed. Should the transmitter detect a fatal error during, normal opera» tion, it resets itselfor shuts down while the LEDs display an error code (see page 26). Staff Mode This mode is used to troubleshoot the transmitter To activate the stafimode, press the red button for more than 3 seconds. The LEDs may identify the following possible error conditions: i. l‘: u. |_ a; .: .. :: NOTE: The statl‘mode lasts for30 seconds. afler which it returns to normal operating mode.

Slip the transmitter cover on with the sharp corners facing upward. To prevent water from entering the battery companment. wrap the transmitter in plastic ifit is to be worn in the shower. Also. cover the transmitter's programming port with the protective cap (see arrow) before exposing it to water to prevent any damage. NOTE: ”the transmitter is not likely to be used for some time. remove the battery. About the Transmitter emitter Setup ”a“ The Transmitter Setup menu (illustrated below) provides not only transmitter setup and status information but also allows you to customize the transmitter according to the patient’s needs. How- ever, thfie functions can only be configured for local telemetry channels (a local patient is one who is being monitored by the MULTIVIEW WORKSTATION where S/lle was admitted). sing the Transmitter Setup Menu 1. Click on the patient’s parameter area in CLUSTERVIEW to access the BEDVIEW window. 2. Click Setup. 3. Click on Telemetry P (if this button is not visible. the Telemetry option must first be unlocked by your Biomed). 4. Click on Transmmar Setup to display the Transmitter Setup menu.
