Option Settings

The LIFEPAK 9A defibrillator/monitor includes software which allows the user to initiate self-tests, change settings and power-on defaults such as languages, and examine system data. Access for all of these options is gained through the top-level Test Menu which then allows access to the Setup Menu or Info Menu. All menus and options are described below.

Test Menu

The Test Menu is the top-level menu which allows access to the self-tests and the two other menus, the Setup Menu and the Info Menu. To access the Test Menu, do the following:

1. Make sure the defibrillator/monitor power is off. Simultaneously press and hold LEAD SELECT and SYNC, then press ON.

2. Continue holding LEAD SELECT and SYNC until the message SELECTED TEST: and a list of tests are displayed as shown in Figure 2–3. This information is the Test Menu.

The Test Menu allows access to the four self-tests (KEYPAD, DEFIB, DISPLAY, and RECORDER), the Info Menu (INFO), and the Setup Menu (SETUP). The self-tests are executed as part of the Performance Inspection Procedure and the Test and Calibration Procedure and are described in detail in Section 3. The Info Menu and the Setup Menu are described in the following paragraphs.

To exit the Test Menu and return to normal operation, press V ECG SIZE to scroll down to EXIT, then press SYNC.
