RESET / RESET 1
A RESET or a RESET 1 alarm occurs if the ventilator restarts following a condition other than being
shut down by pressing the On/Standby button.
The ventilator runs an ongoing set of self-tests to verify that it is operating correctly. If the ventilator
detects a condition that makes safe ventilator operation uncertain, it reinitializes itself to allow the
more sophisticated Power On Self Tests (POST) to be performed. If the POST does not detect any
further problems, the ventilator will resume operation and a RESET or a RESET 1 alarm is posted. If
the POST detects a problem that could cause continued operation to be unsafe, a ventilator INOP will
occur.
Conditions that could cause a RESET or a RESET 1 alarm:
• Operating the ventilator on the internal battery until it is fully depleted.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
• Other transient causes.
When a RESET or a RESET 1 alarm is generated:
• An error code is written to the Event Trace indicating the type of problem detected.
• The ventilator resets itself and performs the Power On Self Tests (POST).
• If no further problems are detected, the ventilator resumes operation.
• The RESET or RESET 1 message is flashed in the display window.
• The audible alarm is sounded.
To reset the RESET or a RESET 1 alarm:
1) Push the Silence / Reset button twice
.
This alarm is not available in NPPV mode.
NOTE
When a RESET or RESET 1 alarm has occurred, check the Event Trace for more information about
the problem. See Appendix E - Event Trace for more information about events.
Repeated occurrences of the RESET or RESET 1 alarm may indicate a problem with the ventilator’s
hardware. Please immediately contact a certified Pulmonetic Systems’ service technician.
