The Parts of the Monitor
The N-200 monitor can be used with any model NELLCOR pulse sensor. The monitor
should be run only on AC electrical powerby plugging the hospital-grade power cord
into a standard, grounded wall outlet (3 slots). In caseof power failure, the monitor may
be run on its internal battery for up to 90 minutes. The internal batteryis recharged
when the monitor is connected to AC power. It takes 14hours to recharge fully after
operatingon battery power.
The N-200 monitor must be used with one of the following patient modules:
• N-200 patient module with ECG
• N-200 mini patient module
The momtor will not work with any other kind of patient module or without one. Do
not attempt to connect a pulse sensor to any connector on the monitor's rear panel. The
N-200 patient module with ECG may be connected to ECG leads connected to the
patient; N-200 mini patient module cannot. (If you wish to use an ECG signal with the
N-200 mini patient module, an ECG lead from a bedside ECG monitor must be
connected to the ECG IN/OUT connector on the backof the N-200 monitor.)
No matter which patient module is used, the monitor will sound an audible alarm and
flash a light when the oxygen levels (detected by light absorption) fall below or go
above the alarm settings. The monitor will also alarm if the pulse rate goes above or
falls below the alarm settings.
Besides the alarm functions, the N-200 monitor saves 12 hours of trend information.
This information can be printed on a printer having a serial input.
