Charge Time Test
The Charge Time test measures how long a defibrillator
takes to charge up to a specified energy level. Typically,
this test uses as a parameter the maximum energy level
available to the defibrillator. Table 7 lists the
measurements taken for this test. Custom parameters
available for the Charge Time tests are listed in Table 8.
Note
This test element supports the Auto Advance
Test Guide Setting.
