Temperature Test
Performance Verification Testing
3-24 Efficia CM Series Service Guide
To test the ECG output:
Temperature Test
To perform this test, you need a patient simulator (with 0.1
o
C or 0.2
o
F). Perform the
following test for each temperature connector in use.
To test the performance of the temperature measurement:
Cardiac Output Test (C.O.)
This test checks the performance of the C.O. module.
To perform this test, Philips recommends that you use the following equipment or its
equivalent:
• Fluke PS420, M1012-61601, CD 2462364 or similar
Step
1
Connect the patient simulator to the ECG connector on the monitor and
the defibrillator to the ECG output on the monitor.
2
Set the patient simulator to the following configuration:
• HR = 100 bpm
• ECG sinus rhythm
3
Turn on the defibrillator in simulation mode.
4
Verify that the ECG signal is displayed.
5
If you do not get the expected results, see “ECG/Respiration Measurement
Problems” on page 4-9.
Note — Philips employees record this value as EO:P or EO:F.
Step
1
Connect the patient simulator to the temperature connector on the
monitor or measurement server extension.
2
Configure the patient simulator to 40
o
C (100
o
F).
3
Wait for the monitor to display the static temperature value.
The value should be 40
o
C ± 0.2
o
C (100
o
F ± 0.4
o
F).
4
If the value is not within tolerance, see “Temperature Measurement
Problems” on page 4-7.
Note — Philips employees record this value as T(1 or 2):P or T(1 or 2:F)
