    What does it mean if the emergency button was pressed on Medoc PATHWAY Medical Equipment?
    • C
      Christopher BryantAug 25, 2025
      If the system detected that the emergency button has been pressed, or the hardware safety mechanism has been triggered: 1. Release the emergency button and/or the Emergency button on the extended cable. 2. Run a system Self-Test. * If the Self-Test completes without any further errors the system can return to normal operation. * If the Self-Test cannot be complete, restart the system and retry. If the Self-Test continues to fail, there is no other solution.

    What to do if Medoc PATHWAY Medical Equipment says water temperature is too high?
    • C
      Clifford GonzalezAug 27, 2025
      If the water temperature is too high: 1. Check that the PATHWAY is turned ON and communication is established. 2. Check that the Thermodes are properly connected. 3. Check the water level and fill the Cooling Unit reservoir if necessary. 4. Make sure the coolant temperature in the Cooling Unit is below 15°C. Press in the Emergency button and allow the temperature to cool if needed.
