Chapter 1: Introduction
Notes
NOTE: The WW1090 rechargeable battery pack utilizes circuitry that optimizes the
charging of the batteries. New packs will require multiple charge / discharge
learning cycles before optimum performance is obtained.
NOTE: "SpO
averaging" means the number of pulse beats over which the SpO
2
averaged; "pulse averaging" means the number of seconds over which the pulse
value is averaged.
NOTE: Increasing or decreasing the averaging setting has no effect on the data update
rate.
NOTE: A Patient Simulator does not calibrate the monitor. The monitor does not require
calibration. A Patient Simulator provides a known SpO
monitor that allows the monitor's performance to be checked.
NOTE: A Patient Simulator cannot be used to assess the accuracy of a pulse oximeter and/
or sensor.
