After powering on, the unit performs its Self Check procedure, which checks for preexisting
alarm conditions and the operation of the pneumatic system, internal communications, and
power system. After completing the Self Check, the ventilator begins to operate immediately,
and monitors the presence of alarms continuously.
During start-up, the ventilator’s alarms are disabled for 120 seconds to allow you to properly
adjust the patient circuit, pulse oximeter, and ventilator settings without distraction.
