Operator Manual
The SAROS User Control Panel displays important operating information. This section will help you understand this operating information.
The SAROS has two modes: Normal and Tactical. To switch between these modes, depress Utility Button, and then the Decrease Button to
switch between TACT=ON and TACT=OFF.
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 is indicated by TACT=OFF.
Tactical Mode is provided for operation where noise and light may compromise a situation. In these situations, the LED indicators will be
off. Tactical Mode is indicated by TACT=ON.
Green and Yellow 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) and Power Indicator (Green): This button powers the device ON or powers it OFF. The Power Indicator
is illuminated when the device is powered ON and operating in the Normal Mode and off when operating in Tactical Mode.
If Power Indicator is blinking, there may be an issue with the power source. Check Alarm Section for more details.
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: In Normal Mode, when illuminated, this indicates a low priority awareness condition or Cau-
tion. Continue to use your system and refer to the Alerts, Alarms, and Troubleshooting Table for the proper response.

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
