Temperature Parameter Window
The parameter window displays the current temperature values with the unit of
measurement.
You can monitor a patient’s temperature at multiple sites. Both internal and
external temperature sensors may be used. The monitor calculates the
monitored temperature and displays its value on the screen.
The monitor is compatible with YSI series 400 probes listed in the enclosed
publication "Accessories – Dash 2000/3000".
The temperature cable is plugged into the TEMP cable connector on the
monitor. The temperature monitoring features are found in the Temperature
Parameter Menu.
WARNINGS
When the probe becomes disconnected, the temperature
monitoring function is disabled, but no alarm is submitted. In
order to ensure reliable patient monitoring, the proper
application of the probe and the connection must be checked at
regular intervals.
Do not route cables in a way that they may present a stumbling
hazard.
