6.1 Switching On the Monitor
WARNING
1 Check if all the metal parts are linked to the protective earth cord and the cord is in good
condition before switching on the monitor.
2 If any sign of damage is detected, or the monitor displays some error messages, do not use
it on any patient. Contact biomedical engineer in the hospital or our service engineer
immediately.
3 Check all the functions to make sure that the monitor is in good condition.
Press the POWER switch on the right panel to switch on the monitor. The power indicator lights up
and a start-up music will be heard. You can operate the monitor after the main interface appears.
You can choose to switch the start-up music on or off,
1 Select the main menu key on the main interface.
2 Select General > Start-up Music.
3 Select ON (default) or OFF.
4 Select OK.
6.2 Checking the Recorder Paper
The monitor provides the print self-check function to check if the recorder paper is correctly loaded
and set.
The recorder prints a baseline and paper settings after start-up (if Print Self-Check is ON).
Check if the paper settings match the paper being used (in the circled area below, P should
correspond to F9-P, and G to F9-G), and then observe the starts and ends of the printed baselines
(illustrated with the arrow). The starts and ends should be printed exactly on the edges of the pane if
the recorder paper is correctly loaded and set. If they do not comply with the edges, reload paper or
ask the service engineer to check the paper settings of the monitor.
