7.6 Oximeter
You can connect the recommended oximetry device to the ventilator to monitor SpO
2
and heart
rate levels. When an oximeter is connected, the Patient Accessory panel appears on the Standby
and Monitor screens. A heart icon will indicate that the oximeter is connected and show the data
status. When the device has Detailed View turned on, the panel also displays the current SpO
2
and
Heart Rate readings. If bad data is being read from the oximeter, dashes appear next to the SpO
2
and Heart Rate indicators.
Note: Use only the oximetry device available from Philips Respironics.
7.7 Philips Respironics DirectView Software
You can use the Philips Respironics DirectView software to download the prescription data from
the SD card to a computer. DirectView can be used by clinicians to receive and report stored data
from the SD card. DirectView does not perform any automatic scoring or diagnosing of a patient’s
therapy data.
7.8 Philips Respironics Encore Software
You can use the Philips Respironics Encore software to download prescription data from the SD card
to a computer. Encore can be used by clinicians to receive and report stored data from the SD card.
7.9 Carrying Case
A carrying case is available for transporting your ventilator. When traveling, the carrying case is for carry-
on luggage only. The carrying case will not protect the system if it is put through checked baggage.
7.10 External Battery
An external 12 VDC lead acid battery can be connected to the ventilator through the Philips
Respironics external battery cable. The external battery is intended to provide power in locations
where AC power is not easily accessible. See the instructions for use that come with the external
battery cable and battery for additional information. The availability of an external battery is not
meant to suggest that this product can be used as a transport ventilator.
