Operator & Service Manual
The SAROS User Control Panel displays important operating information. This section will help you understand this operating
information.
Normal Mode provides all LED indications with full brightness, full audio indicator sound and LCD backlight. The system
always starts up in Normal Mode. Normal Mode can be changed to Tactical Mode by depressing the Utility Button and then the
Decrease button to change from TACT=ON to TACT=OFF. Normal Mode is indicated by an "N" on the LCD.
Tactical Mode is provided for operation where noise and light may compromise a situation. In these situations, the LED indica-
tors will be off and the audio indicator sound is reduced. Tactical Mode can be changed to Normal Mode by depressing the Utility
Button and then the Decrease button to change from TACT=ON to TACT=OFF. Tactical Mode is indicated by a "T" on the LCD.
Green, Yellow, and Red Indicators on the front panel indicate the operating condition of the device. For additional information
on these indicators see the Alerts, Alarms and Troubleshooting Table in this manual.
ON/OFF (Standby) Button -Green Indicator: This button powers the device ON or powers it OFF. The Green Indi-
cator is illuminated when the device is powered ON and operating in the Normal Mode and off when operating in
Tactical Mode.
Increase or Decrease Flow Setting Button: Use these buttons to set the flow or to make selections in the Utility
Menu.
Delivery Mode Button and Indicator (Blue): The SAROS contains a button to toggle between Continuous Flow
and Pulse Flow mode. The Pulse Flow mode activates autoSAT Technology – as breath rate changes, the system
adjusts to provide a consistent bolus size. The Pulse Flow Mode allows a significant increase in operating time
when powered by a Battery. When the Pulse Flow Mode is activated, the blue Flow Mode Indicator illuminates
and a pulse of oxygen is delivered with each inspiratory effort. When the pulse of oxygen is delivered, the flow
mode indicator turns off.
ALERT (Yellow) Indicator - Low and Medium Priority Alerts: In Normal Mode, when illuminated, this indicates
a low priority awareness condition or Caution. Continue to use your system and refer to the Alerts, Alarms, and
Troubleshooting Table for the proper response. A flashing yellow indicates a medium priority alert. A prompt
response is necessary. In Tactical Mode, a blinking star "*" indicates an alert.
ALARM (Red) Indicator – High Priority Alarms: In Normal Mode, when illuminated, this indicates a high prior-
ity alarm condition. An immediate response is necessary. Refer to the Alerts, Alarms, and Troubleshooting Table
and contact a qualified service technician. In Tactical Mode, a blinking star "*" indicates an alert.
Buzzer: An audible alarm (or buzzer) is used to alert you to the operating condition of the device, either a warning
or failure, and to confirm a valid key press by the user.
Flow Setting Indicator: This is the main focus on your control panel. A clinician will correctly set the prescribed
flow for either the CX - Continuous Flow Mode at X LPM (1, 2 or 3) and/or the PXXX - Pulse Flow Mode XXX
ml (16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96) settings. Each time the device is turned ON, it will operate at C3 (3 LPM) continuous
flow in the Normal Display Mode.
Battery Status Gauge: This indicator displays the charge remaining in the Battery. When the Battery is fully
charged all 5 gray bars are illuminated. Each gray bar represents approximately 20% of the total Battery charge.
When the Battery is being charged, the charge indicator bars will waterfall. If the Battery is not installed, or if it is
improperly installed, the Battery Status Gauge will not be illuminated and Time on Battery is not displayed.
External Power is Present Indicator: When the SAROS is properly plugged in and is using the AC or 24 VDC
Cable, this indicator will illuminate on the User Control Panel in Normal Mode.
