OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Monitor Screen
The Monitor screen (Fig. 12) provides the
o p e r a t o r
w i t h
V I T A L E R T
2 0 0 0
measurements, waveforms and alarms. The
Monitor screen is invoked automatically on
power-up, following diagnostics.
The information on the Monitor screen is
organized into six areas: the ECG display,
the P1 invasive blood pressure display, the
P2 invasive blood pressure display, the T1
temperature display, the T2 temperature
display, and the alarms display.
If only one pressure channel is being used,
the VITALERT 2000 expands the ECG
section on the Monitor screen to include two
passes of the ECG waveform. If neither
pressure channel is used, the VITALERT
2000 cascades the ECG waveform to include
three passes on the Monitor screen.
The
VITALERT
2000
knows
if
a
measurement is not being received by the
absence of its sensor signal. If a sensor
signal is received at initialization, then
ceases, the VITALERT 2000 registers a
disconnect,
which
is
indicated
as
an
Advisory message at the bottom of the
screen. However, if the ECG cable is not
connected at power-up, the VITALERT
2000 will also register a disconnect.
ECG Display
The ECG display of the VITALERT 2000,
located at the top of the monitor screen,
includes: the ECG waveform, the heart rate,
heart rate alarm limits, the flashing heart,
and the selected ECG lead. A description of
each section is given below.
