Remaining battery life can be observed as the Pulse
Indicator Lights illuminate with each breath (Figure 5).

If the Green Pulse Indicator Light illuminates with each
breath, the batteries have sufficient power (8 or more
hours).
If the Red Pulse Indicator Light illuminates with each
breath, the batteries have between 4-8 hours of battery
life remaining.
If the Red Indicator Light illuminates continuously, the
batteries must be changed. The unit can be used on
the continuous flow "CF" setting if no batteries are
immediately available.
NOTE-Turn the Rotary Selector to the OFF setting
prior to changing batteries.
NOTE-The oxygen cylinder will not last as long in
continuous flow mode as it would in PulseDose mode.
The contents gauge indicates the approximate amount
of oxygen left in the tank. It reads 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and
full. It also has a red area to emphasize when the tank
needs to be changed (Figure 6).

1. Install known good batteries.
2. Connect the unit to a pressurized oxygen cylinder
as described in Section III-A and connect a nasal
cannula.
3. Open the tank valve and verify that the PD1000
contents gauge indicates that there is a full tank.
4. Verify that there are no leaks around the tank seal
between the PD1000 and the oxygen tank.
5. Select any flow rate and simulate an inhalation
through the nasal cannula while verifying that a
"pulse" or bolus of oxygen is delivered with each
simulated breath.
6. Position the Rotary Selector to the "CF" position
and verify that the Continuous Flow Mode of
operation is functioning.
7. Verify that the top and bottom covers are not
cracked or broken.
8. Verify that the label can be read and is not
damaged.
9. Turn the Rotary Selector to the "OFF" position,
dose the tank valve, and remove PD1000 from
cylinder.
