DefiMonitor XD
Operation Of The DefiMonitor XD
Switching On And Off
Switching PRIMEDIC™ DefiMonitor XD On
By pressing the On/Off button the device is switched on. Immediately after it has
been switched, the device runs an internal self-test to check the important functions
and signal equipment. After the auto-test has been passed, the device is ready for
operation in AUTO mode.
All buttons are then enabled, except the shock button.
The activation of defibrillation is enabled by the DefiMonitor in auto mode only after
the detection of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and/or pulse-free ventricular tachycardia
(VT).
A signal tone confirms that the device is ready for operation. Always check the func-
tioning of the speaker.
Switching PRIMEDIC™ DefiMonitor XD Off
The PRIMEDIC™ DefiMonitor can be switched off in many ways:
– By pressing the On/Standby button for about two seconds. At the same time,
there are three warning tones. This time is selected so that the device is not
switched off by mistake.
– If the device does not detect a signal for ten minutes or if no button is pressed, it
is switched off automatically.
If the device detects any defect, it switches off automatically to prevent any possible
injuries.
Choosing Operating Mode and Changing the Configuration
The device is configured by the factory.
Switch the device on as described before.
Certain parameters in the Setup Menu (displayed on the monitor) can be changed.
This configuration is stored and retained until a new change is carried out, whether
the device is off or the power supply is changed.
To activate the Setup Menu, press the Selection and Confirmation button
operation.
Use
– the

– the
button (downwards)
to navigate in the menu and to increase or to reduce a selected parameter and the
button (to select a parameter and confirm the changed value).
