2048723-002C CARESCAPE V100 Vital Signs Monitor 4-21
Maintenance: Calibration procedures and tests
1. Turn on the verifier device, using either a 9-volt battery or the power supply.
Make sure the red LED is illuminated.
2. Allow device approximately 5 minutes for warm-up and stabilization time.
3. Allow certified master and the instrument to be tested to acclimate in the
same ambient temperature for at least 10 minutes.
4. For all instruments, make sure the lens at the tip of the probe is clean. To
clean, use an alcohol prep or a swab dipped in alcohol, followed by a damp
wipe with water to remove any residue.
5. Alternately insert the reference instrument and the instrument being verified
into the aperture opening, comparing the readings.
6. Record and verify the difference between the temperature reading of the
CM and the instrument being verified is ±0.2°C (0.4°F).
If the readings differ by more than the acceptable field limits, repeat this
procedure. If the readings still differ by more than the acceptable limits, the
device fails.
7. Confirm test results are recorded on the “Test results form” on page 4-29.
