• Each machine has a front-panel LED indicator that alerts the user to a low-battery condition. • All Model 300 Series Pulse Oximeters perform a functional test at power-on, and diagnostics tests can be initiated. • All Mediaid oximetry sensors with RJ12 connectors are compatible with the Model 300 Series.
1.3 Modes of Monitoring All Models • All models in the Mediaid 300 Series are calibrated to measure the oxygen saturation (%SpO ) of functional hemoglobin. • A normal (steady) display indicates the oximeter has received at least three normal, intelligible pulses during the last 30-second period.
