PRINTER/CHARGER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

SETTING UP

1.
Plug the power cord into the black receptacle in the rear of the
Printer/Charger. Then connect the power cord to a receptacle of
appropriate voltage, frequency and plug type. The orange power
indicator on the front panel will become illuminated, and a two-
tone beep will occur.
2.
Leave the power switch of the PneumoCheck spirometer in the
ON position after a test to print a report. Turning the Pneumo-
Check OFF will clear the memory of all data.
3.
ONLY the results from the BEST test will be printed.
4.
If individual prints of each test are desired (e.g. for inhalation
challenges, evaluations for Social Security Disability, etc.):
Print the very first maneuver.

Turn the PneumoCheck OFF and then back ON to clear
l
memory before performing the next maneuver.
Repeat above two steps for each maneuver.

SETTING REPORT FORMAT OPTIONS

On the underside of the Printer/Charger is a set of four option
switches. With these switches you can specify report format as
follows:

PREDICTED NORMALS

Four sets of predicted normal values are provided for comparing
patient results. The standard factory setting is Knudson, 1983. Use
option switches one and two to change this setting. For more
information on predicteds see Appendix C (p. 51).
