Domain button:

The level of accessibility for ventilator controls is determined by the domain selec-

tion. The user interface can be set up in one of three domains: basic, transport, and hospital. The basic
domain is a simplified screen for use in the long-term care or homecare setting. The transport domain
is specifically designed to assist during transport applications. The hospital and transport domains
provide full access to all ventilation and alarm settings, as well as to the special screens and menus. Full
access is recommended for use in acute care settings and for the initial setup of patients in long-term
care before switching to basic domain. Reference

Autolock button:

The Autolock function is enabled from the Utility screen. When Autolock is enabled,

the touch screen will automatically lock 40 seconds after the last button was touched. When this

screen, simply touch and hold the lock icon for 3 seconds.

Pressure bar:

The pressure bar appears on every screen. It indicates dynamic pressure in the patient

circuit with a green bar that rises and falls. The High and Low Pressure alarm settings are indicated with
red lines, and the peak pressure of the last breath is indicated with a green line.

Battery charge level display:

A battery icon is displayed in the upper right corner of the screen. This

icon indicates the percent of charge level remaining on the battery that is currently operating the ven-
tilator—either the Power Pac battery pack (blue icon) or the backup battery (red icon).

Messages and alerts display:

In standby condition, there are three start-up buttons that appear in

this area. They disappear when the ventilator is in ventilating condition. While in standby or while ven-
tilating, messages, including alarm alerts, are displayed in the message display area of the screen in
order of priority. Active alarms are displayed first followed by latched alarms that have not been
cleared by the user.

To clear alarm messages, press the

Audio Paused/Reset

button (located on the top of the panel). As each

alarm message is cleared, the alarm message with the next priority will appear in the message display area.
Continue pressing to clear all alarm messages. Press and hold for 3 seconds to clear all at once.
