Basic Operations
Turning Power On
Before you start to make measurements, check the
patient monitor, SMR and plug-in modules for any
mechanical damage and make sure that all external
cables, plug-ins and accessories are properly connected.
Plug the power cord into the AC power source. If you
run the patient monitor on battery power, ensure that the
battery is sufficiently charged.
Press the power on/off switch on the monitor’s front.
The start-up screens are displayed, and the technical
alarm lamp and alarm lamp are lit in blue and yellow
respectively. Then, the alarm lamp turns into red, and
turns off together with the technical alarm lamp after the
system gives a beep.
The monitor enters the main screen.
