Using the 9847 Pulse Oximeter
• The %SpO
2
and pulse rate
displays will sequence as follows.
1. “
888 888
”.
2. The current time (if set) or “
00 00
” if the time is not set.
3. Display 3 software revision numbers; oximetry/display software rev #, then CO
2
memory software rev #, then sound module software rev. # approx 1 second each.
4. Any sensor connections issues:
– if a sensor is not connected the display will revert to blank, or
– if a sensor is connected but is not detecting an adequate signal, a single dash (
-
) will appear in
the middle position of both displays, or
– if entering setup mode, the device will display “
ALr
” and “
dFt
”.
The CO
2
bar graph sequence is:
• each segment illuminates once,
• remains blank (until CO
2
sensor is connected to the device), or
• only the bottom segment illuminates when ready for use if CO
2
sensor is connected to the device.
• The yellow audible alarm disabled indicator is lit until initialization is complete
and a CO
2
or pulse oximeter sensor is connected.
NOTE:
The audible alarm disabled indication cannot be turned off until a sensor
is plugged in.
NOTE:
When 9847 is turned on and the alarms are disabled, the yellow audible alarm disabled
indicator will remain illuminated.
Pulse Oximeter Startup
Apply the pulse oximeter sensor to the patient as directed in the sensor Instructions for Use. Verify
operation by:
• the pulse quality indicator
is blinking green,
• the pulse rate
and SpO
2
(%SpO
2
) displays are showing values, and
• the pulse quality indicator blinking is correlated to the pulse rate for at least 10 seconds.
If the pulse quality indicator LED is blinking red or yellow or is blinking inconsistently, reposition the
sensor or replace the sensor.
