Fault analysis
Overview
The symptoms and solutions in this chapter represent only a few of the
faults that you may encounter and are not intended to cover every
possible problem that may occur.
A systematic approach to the diagnosis of problems as well as a general
understanding of the architecture, both hardware and software, of the
patient monitor are essential to ensure successful troubleshooting of a
device. GE recommends formal service training before repairs are
attempted. These troubleshooting procedures combined with training
provide the service technician with skills necessary to service and repair
a patient monitor in the event of a malfunction.
