AVOXimeter 4000 Operator's Manual

2 Description

The AVOXimeter 4000 (Figure 1) is a tabletop device for use at the bedside. It contains a test
chamber which performs all operations to measure the concentrations of reduced oxyhemoglobin
(HHb), oxyhemoglobin saturation (%0
(MetHb) of a whole blood sample after the operator inserts a test cuvette containing the sample
into the test chamber.
The concentration of total hemoglobin (tHb), the relative fractions of carboxyhemoglobin
(%COHb) and methemoglobin (%MetHb), and the oxygen content (0
then automatically calculated and reported.
Each AVOXimeter 4000 is calibrated at the factory. The AVOXimeter 4000 can be operated either
from its internal batteries or from the AC adapter. The batteries are charged whenever the AC
Adapter is connected.

Front Panel

The front panel (Figure 2) contains the test chamber, a keypad with the
menu keys, number keys, and a display panel. Operator instructions are shown on the display
panel, and the operator enters commands and information using the keypad.
When the test is completed, the results are shown on the display panel and stored in system
memory for current or future printing.
The display panel is illuminated to enhance visibility in low light conditions. The illumination can
be adjusted (or turned off) to conserve power during battery operation.
