2.5 Batteries
This monitor is designed to operate on battery (sealed lead-acid or Lithium Ion battery) power
during intra-hospital patient transfer or whenever the power supply is interrupted. The battery is
charged automatically when the monitor is connected to AC power, no matter the monitor is
powered on or not. Whenever the AC power is interrupted during patient monitoring, the patient
monitor will automatically run power from the internal batteries.
Sealed acid batteries and Lithium Ion batteries are differentiated by their contacts, as shown
below.
The battery symbol displayed on the main screen tells the status of the battery.
The battery is installed in the battery slot.
The solid part indicates its capacity.
No battery is installed in the battery slot.
Besides, the battery indicator also indicates the status of the battery.
ON: The battery is being charged or the battery is fully charged.
OFF: No battery is installed. If the battery is installed but the monitor is not
connected to AC power and not turned on, the indicator will also be off.
Flashes: The monitor is powered by the internal battery.
The capacity of the internal battery is limited. When the battery capacity is too low, a high level
alarm is triggered and the “Battery too low” message is given in the technical alarms area. At this
moment, the AC power shall be applied to the monitor.
