LIFEPAK 500 automated external defibrillator Modes of Operation
5-8
User Test Mode
In User Test Mode, the LIFEPAK 500 AED can perform low energy test
discharges with an external test load. The External Test Load Test checks the
AED charging circuits and the operator’s response during a typical ECG analysis
and charging cycle. During this test, the AED charges for a low energy test
shock. The usual messages and audio prompts are provided. For more
information about the External Test Load Test, click on Auto Tests to jump to the
LIFEPAK 500 Operating Instructions.
CAUTION!
Possible battery depletion. Do not leave the LIFEPAK 500 (with s/w 4.0)
connected to a simulator or test load overnight. At the time of the daily
Auto Test, the AED will remain on and drain the battery until manually
turned off or until the battery is depleted. Always disconnect the AED from
the simulator when not in use.
