Defibrillator Test (AC Power At 200 J)
These instructions describe how to test the defibrillation function when
powered only by AC power (no battery installed).
If all results are as described, the unit passes the test. Return to the main
Diagnostic Test menu by pressing .
If there is any failure, begin troubleshooting and repairing the unit as needed.
See "Troubleshooting" on page 3-1 and Table 3-9 "Operational Problems -
Defibrillation and Synchronized Cardioversion" on page 3-23.
1. Set up the test.
a. Turn defibrillator off and remove the battery. Connect the AC Power
cord.
b. Connect the defibrillator analyzer to the pads cable. Set the analyzer
to measure delivered energy. If needed, reset the analyzer’s display to
read 0.
c. Turn the defibrillator on. From the Diagnostic Menu, select the Defib
Meas Test and press .
2. Deliver a 200J shock.
a. Use the Energy Select control to select 200J.
b. Press to charge the defibrillator.
c. Press .
3. Check the analyzer readings.
Read the delivered energy indicated by the defibrillator analyzer. It
should be 200J ±15% (±30J).
4. Check the values displayed by the M4735A.
The results displayed by the M4735A should be as follows:
Available Energy: Not recorded - failure if >0.
ms to Charge: <
15000
Delivered Energy: Actual delivered energy ±7%
Impedance: 42 to 57 ohms
Peak Current: Ignore. Derived from same measurements as delivered
energy and impedance
Defib Errors: Not recorded - failure if any reported.
Shock Counter: Disregard.
