General Information
Control Modes
The OmniBed
has two control modes when used as either an
incubator or a warmer. With the compartment closed, the
OmniBed
controls the inside temperature comparing air
temperature readings from the probe on the compartment wall
to a setting you enter using the control panel (air mode) or
from a probe attached to the baby’s skin (baby mode). With
the canopy raised, the OmniBed
controls radiant heater output
from a heater power percentage setting that you enter using
the control panel (manual mode) or by using temperature
readings from a probe attached to the baby’s skin (baby
mode).
Controls and Displays
The controls and displays, located at the top of the uprights at
the head of the bed, can be divided into two areas: on the left
are the buttons and numeric temperature displays that control
the temperature regulation of the infant, on the right are the
graphics display screen and control knob that control all the
accessory options.Temperatures can be shown in Celsius or
Fahrenheit degrees: the default setting is Celsius.
Temperature Regulation
At start up, the OmniBed prompts you to select one of the
control modes. If the unit was used in the last 2 hours, it will
ask if you would like to retain the settings you used previously.
If you are using the OmniBed as an incubator (canopy closed)-
you select baby or air mode. If you are using the OmniBed as
a warmer (canopy open)- you select baby or manual mode.
If you start with the canopy open, or open the bed during the
first minutes after start up, and you do not select a control
mode, the graphics screen will show the “Warm Up Mode”
message and the radiant heater will automatically run at 100%
power. When ten minutes has elapsed and you still have not
selected a control mode, the graphics display will show the
“Preheat Zone” message and the radiant heater will then run at
the preheat level; the default preheat level setting is 25%
power.
