Setup Procedures: Loading Strip Chart Recorder Paper
Loading Strip Chart Recorder Paper
CAUTIONS
LOADING PAPER—The instructions for loading paper into the
120 Series Monitor are different than the instructions for loading
paper into other Corometrics monitors. Improper loading can
cause paper jams. Follow the instructions carefully.
PAPER TYPE—Do not use non-Corometrics paper or paper
designed for use with other Corometrics monitors. Using the
wrong paper may produce inferior print quality; could result in
permanent damage to the recorder’s print head; and may void your
warranty. Refer to “Chapter 14, Replacement Parts” for parts
information.
STORAGE/TRANSPORT—Paper should be installed in the
monitor’s strip chart recorder at all times. This reduces particle
build-up on the printhead and facilitates opening the recorder
door.
To protect against paper jams, the 120 Series recorder contains a paper-loading
sensor which detects if the paper has been incorrectly loaded. When the recorder
detects a paper-load–error condition:
the recorder will not print;
the Record indicator flashes on and off every second;
three short chimes sound every three seconds at a fixed volume of 6; and
the message
PAPER INCORRECTLY LOADED, RELOAD WITH BLACK
SQUARES DOWN
is displayed overlaying any waveform in the maternal
waveform area.
You may temporarily silence a paper-load–error condition by pressing the
Alarm
Silence
pushbutton. The audio alarm will be re-issued if the paper-load–error
condition continues after the specified silence period (re-alarm time). The re-alarm
time is adjustable from the Master Alarm Setup screen. Refer to page 5-18 in this
section.
The 120 Series Monitor also alerts you when paper is running low and when the
recorder is completely out of paper.
