Operating Modes and Defaults
Operating Modes and Defaults
The Model 7500FO features Setup mode, Factory Defaults, User-Defined Defaults and Patient
Security modes.
NOTE:
Patient Security mode overrides any default settings.
Setup Mode, Viewing Limits and Setting Time
In Setup mode, users can adjust alarm limits and volumes, set clock and calendar information and
clear the device’s memory. Pressing the Limits button activates Setup mode, and all adjustments
can be made using the Plus (+) or Minus (-) buttons. Setup mode is available when the device is
operating, or during the startup/initialization process. Time is set by adjusting each of the last five
options in setup mode: year, month, day, hour and minute.
Setup mode is not available in Patient Security mode. In Patient Security mode, pressing the
Limits button scrolls through the limits on the displays, allowing the operator to view the current
limits. Pressing and holding the Plus (+) button also reviews the limits, regardless of operating
mode.
Factory Defaults
In Factory Defaults, all adjustable parameters are set as indicated in the table below. This is the
Model 7500FO’s default operating setting.
The Model 7500FO is shipped with factory defaults active. To revert to factory default alarm limits
from the user-defined default alarm limits, simultaneously press the alarm silence and minus (-)
buttons.
NOTE:
User-Defined Default values are lost when Factory Defaults are set active.
Default alarm and volume settings are automatically selected for every operating session in which
the parameters were not recalled or changed within the setup menu.
