System Functions
1.3.13.3 Baby Mode
The heat control processor functions identically in Baby and Manual Modes. The user input to the system in
Baby Mode is the desired skin temperature. The system measures actual skin temperature via the patient
probe. The signal is an input to the Control Board converted to a digital signal read by the main application
processor. The processor utilizes a proprietary, patented heat control algorithm to determine the optimum
heater output power. This output power is passed to the heat control processor.
