Pulse Oximetry Functional Tests - Nellcor OXIMAX N-600X Series Service Manual

Operation with a Live Subject
Patient monitoring involves connecting the Durasensor™ DS-100A pulse oximetry
sensor to a live subject for a qualitative test.
To test using a live subject:
1. Ensure the oximeter is connected to an AC power source.
2. Connect a DOC-10 pulse oximetry cable to the oximeter SpO
3. Connect the DS-100A pulse oximetry sensor to the DOC-10 pulse oximetry cable.
4. Attach the sensor to a live subject as recommended in the OxiMax pulse oximetry
sensor's Directions For Use.
5. Press the ON/STANDBY button to turn the oximeter on and verify the oximeter is

30 seconds. Verify the oxygen saturation and pulse rate values are reasonable for
the subject.
