Chapter 5 Operating Instructions
5.1 Start Up and Setting the Ventilation Parameters
a. Turn on the ventilator:
To turn on the ventilator, press the ON/ OFF button (N) in Figure 1 for
one second. During that second the associated green LED will start
blinking at a high frequency. After 1 second the ventilator will turn on
but with no ventilation at this point. If the button is pressed and released
for less than a second, the ventilator will remain OFF.
Note
Do not connect the patient circuit to a patient before the ventilator is
turned on and three Solid Silhouettes figures (Figure 6) are displayed.
b. Start default ventilation:
Once the ventilator is turned on, 3 Solid Silhouettes start-up figures
(Shown in Figure 6) will be displayed on the screen representing Infant,
Child and Adult patient sizes. Each size comes with pre-set parameters
close to the patient's size to guide the user to select for instant start-up.
This eliminates the need for a potentially long set up before starting
ventilation.
Note
Start-up figures are used during start up only and are not active during
ventilation.
Healthcare providers navigate among the three start-up figures by
rotating the Control Selection Knob (M) and a square cursor will move
around the selected figure. Once the desired patient size is selected, the
user must confirm the selection by pressing the Control Selection Knob
(M) to start ventilation. If no selection occurs within 20 seconds, the
ventilator will start ventilation with child setting as its default start-up.
