3Testing and Maintenance
Concepts
This chapter provides a checklist of the testing and maintenance procedures for the monitor, the MMS
the Measurement Server Extensions and the FMS associated modules.
Preventive Maintenance refers specifically to the series of tests required to make sure the Instrument
measurement results are accurate. The measurements requiring these reported tests are NBP and
sidestream CO

. The accuracy and performance procedures are designed to be completed when
readings are in question or as specified.
Test Reporting
Authorized Philips personnel report test results back to Philips to add to the product development
database. Hospital personnel, however, do not need to report results. This table shows you what to
record on the service record after completing the tests in this chapter.
Where P = Pass, F = Fail and X/x are the measured values as defined in the tests described in this
chapter.
