SQL Air Pulse Generator
SQL Air Pulse Generator
The air pulse generator creates air pulses that are transmitted to the chest via
the connecting hose and garment. Its Soft Start
®
technology reduces “squeeze
effect” and “vest creep” on start-up.
CAUTION: Do not start the generator until the hose and SmartVest garment are
attached to the air pulse generator, as this may cause damage to the unit.
The generator is designed to operate in either the upright or horizontal position.
Anytime the generator is stopped or paused and the orientation of the device
changes, the display will automatically appear in the proper position.
Powering the Generator
There are three elements that effect the power to the generator: the power
cord, the on/off switch, and the sleep mode.
• Power Cord - Connect the supplied power cord to an electrical outlet to
power the generator. The system will not function, however, until the on/off
switch is turned to on.
• On/Off Switch - Use the power switch to turn the generator on or off.
• Sleep Mode - To conserve energy, the system enters sleep mode
automatically after 15 minutes of inactivity. The display and fan are off
during this time, but the light remains lit. To awaken the system from sleep
mode, press any button on the control panel.
NOTE: Contact Electromed or your service representative for an international
power cord.
NOTE: All treatment protocols are retained when the power cord is removed or
the power switch is shut off.
