Operator's Manual.
Code-Ready System
The R Series defibrillator's Code-Ready system tests the defibrillator whenever the unit is
turned on, periodically during operation, whenever manual testing is initiated by the operator,
and automatically, at pre-configured intervals.
The code readiness indicator on the front panel shows the result of the most recent readiness
check. Also, OneStep Pacing, CPR or Complete electrodes provide an interface that
communicates the electrode's expiration date and condition to the defibrillator.
The Defib Test Log stores the results for as many as 1000 defibrillator tests in internal memory.
Each log entry shows the time and date of the defibrillator test. The Defib Test Log can be
printed on the stripchart or transferred to a personal computer for printing and archiving.
Safety Considerations
All operators should review these safety considerations before using the R Series.
R Series products are high-energy defibrillators capable of delivering 200 joules. To completely
deactivate the unit, turn the Mode Selector to OFF.
To manually disarm a charged (or charging) defibrillator, do one of the following:
In AED mode, Turn the Mode Selector to OFF.
•
In Manual mode, turn the Mode Selector to OFF or PACER, or change the selected
•
defibrillator energy.
For safety, in Manual mode, the R Series unit automatically disarms if left charged for more
than either 60 or 120 seconds (user configurable) if the SHOCK button is not pressed; in AED
mode, the R Series unit automatically disarms if left charged for more than 30 seconds.
