This chapter describes the METRON PS-416M Patient Simulator’s features and specifications. 1.1 PS-416M Features METRON’s PS-416M is a high performance simulator designed to simplify patient monitor testing, and is designed to be used by trained service techni- cians. It simulates electrocardiogram, respiration, dynamic blood pressure and static temperature.

3. Operating PS-416M This chapter explains the PS-416M operating controls and terminals. 3.1 Control Switches and Termi- nals Front Panel Power Switch Turns the power on and off. LCD Display Keys Sets LCD display waveform values. Use the right key to enter units, and the left key to enter tens.
Display and Keyboard The PS-416M has a two-digit display. To the left of the LCD display is a listing of available waveforms and two-digit codes. Access a waveform by displaying its corresponding two-digit code. Use the two keys below the LCD display to enter units and tens (the right key is for units;...

Battery Eliminator METRON’s AC Adapter plug-in power supply transformer allows you to use the PS-416M anywhere a standard electrical outlet is available. To attach the AC Adapter insert the adapter’s small connector into the micro jack labeled “Batt. Elim. 9V DC” on the right rear of the unit. Plug the large connector into the nearest standard electrical outlet.
Press Enter and check that the display flashes once. 2. Measure the current consumption from the power supply. Requirement: 19mA 2mA. ± 3. Measure the operating voltage in PS-416M with the multimeter. The fol- lowing values are acceptable: Testpoints Value Maximum Deviation TP10 - TP4 ±...

15. Measure and note the voltage between TP14 and TP16 (typ. <1mV). Set the display at 1 and press Enter. Measure the voltage once more and adjust P5 until the difference between the voltages is 120mV 200 V. ± 16. Repeat the previous instruction, only this time with the Sensitivity switch set to position 5.

The unit is operated from a control panel, and generates simulated signals for testing ECGs and patient monitors. The signals are sent from the PS-416M via contacts situated on the front and top of the unit. The status of the signals is then displayed on an LCD panel.
Page 22
Ports E0 to E4 are connected to the switches on the control panel. These are read 50 times per second. If a switch changes its status from off to on, the program in the processor will execute the function that was linked to the operation.
Output A7 on the processor is connected to the amplifier chain so that a short impulse here will simulate a pace-impulse at the ECG output. Re- sistors R36, R37, R38 and R39 set the level for the pace-impulse. 6. Respiration The other A/D channel in IC8 (Channel B) is used to generate the respi- ration signal.
