Operating Instructions 9
Scenarios
The Trainer provides training scenarios that follow the American Heart Association (AHA)
recommended AED training scenarios. These scenarios are preconfigured and give an
AED Instructor a standard means of training and testing proficiency in AED use. Scenarios
1 to 10 may be selected with the Menu Mode Scenario menu or with the Remote Control.
Scenarios 1 to 8 conform to the AHA recommended training scenarios. Scenario 9 is the
same as AHA scenario 2 except with a one shock conversion. Scenario 10 is the same as
AHA scenario 7 except with a one shock conversion followed by refibrillation.
The Scenario menu may also be used to select a continuous Shockable rhythm (11) or a
continuous Non-shockable rhythm (12).
