Kendall SCD 700 Series
Start-up
• Press the Power On/Standby button to begin normal operation. If using leg sleeves, no further user intervention
is required unless there is a fault condition detected or if therapy must be discontinued.
• The Controller will beep, flash all the LED’s and illuminate the display screen. Quick internal device checks are
performed, which may be audible to the user.
• The pump will begin to operate as part of the Garment Selection and Verification procedure.
• Detection of inoperative LED’s, display screen and the audible alarm function at start-up is the user’s responsibility.
Garment Selection and Verification
After startup, the Garment Configuration procedure allows the user to select when foot compression is required at
either of the two Controller ports:
• On the display, the Port A Leg and Port B Leg images blink to indicate the default garment configuration (leg
compression).
• Pressing either the A or B Button will cause the corresponding port’s leg image to shift to a foot image to signify
foot compression. The buttons must be pressed for each port that is connected to a foot cuff to turn on the cor-
responding foot image(s).
Note: Leg sleeve compression is the default configuration when the Controller is first powered on. Therefore, the A
and B Button(s) do not have to be pressed to begin compression therapy when leg sleeves are being used.
The A and B buttons need to be pressed only when foot compression is to be used.
NOTE:
If a garment is attached anytime after the Garment Detection procedure has started, the system must be
restarted to ensure that the proper therapy will be applied to the limb(s).
Also after startup, the Controller immediately begins conducting the Garment Selection and Verification procedure at
each port to determine if the garments have been properly attached to the controller:
• If necessary, prior to the completion of Garment Selection and Verification, the A and B Button(s) may be pressed
again to shift the garment image from the foot to the leg.
• During this phase, the compressor and valves are operating and air is delivered out the Controller ports to detect
the number and type(s) of garment(s) connected [Leg Sleeve(s) and/or Foot Cuff(s)].
• If the Controller senses a properly attached garment and the type of garment detected matches the User-selected
garment (or the default) configuration, then the corresponding image of a Leg Sleeve or Foot Cuff for both the A
or B side will be displayed on the screen.
• If the Controller senses a properly attached garment but the type of garment detected does not match the User-
selected garment (or the default) configuration, then a Garment Mismatch alarm is triggered. Garment Mismatch
errors can be corrected by pushing the corresponding A and B buttons to change the User-selected garment type
(Leg or Foot). In the example below, the screen shows Foot Cuffs and indicates the user must press both A and B
buttons (FIGURE 1).
