Getting Started
Once you understand the basic operation principles, you can get ready for monitoring. We also
recommend working through the E-Learning Education Programs for self-training before using the
monitor (available at the Philips Learning Center, english only).
Inspecting the Monitor
WARNING
If the monitor or mounting hardware is mechanically damaged, or if it is not working properly, do not
use it for any monitoring procedure on a patient. Contact your service personnel.
1 Before you start to make measurements, carry out the following checks on the monitor including
all connected MMSs, modules, or MMS extensions.
– Check for any mechanical damage.
– Check all the external cables, plug-ins and accessories.
2 Plug the power cord into the AC power source.
3 Check all the functions of the instrument that you need to monitor the patient, and ensure that the
instrument is in good working order.
Setting up the Modules
1 Decide which measurements you want to make.
2 Connect the required modules, MMSs, or MMS extensions.
3 Check that you have the correct patient cables and transducers plugged in. The connectors are
color-coded to the patient cables and transducers for easy identification.
Switching On
Press the power on/standby switch on the monitor for one second. The monitor performs a self test
during which all lamps will light up and a tone will be sounded, and is then ready to use. If you see a
message such as
CO₂ Sens Warmup wait until it disappears before starting to monitor that
measurement.
