Ventilator Memory Logs:

ensic_Logs
This folder will contain several files and is created when the forensic
memory is read from the ventilator. This folder is only present after the read
forensic memory is executed. The files document device settings and
conditions as well as all alarms active on the device at the time of each
entry. Device logging is cyclic, meaning once the forensic memory is full on
the device, it will continue to log overwriting the oldest data first. The log
does not discriminate against alarms generated by use of RCS vs. those
generated on the device while it is in use and all time is formatted in UTC
time. The log may contain alarms that were not present on the display when
used with RCS, which is expected behavior. When communicating with the
SPM, communication is broken with the EMV. The opposite is also true.
Therefore, it is common and expected to have communication alarms
present in forensic memory after conducting tests with RCS.

tilator\ServiceActions
Text file, uses the EMV Model & Serial Number (Ex. VCDB123456) as the
file name. Contains all of the information displayed in the application
window during testing & calibration. Records Pass/Fail criteria. Typically
used to diagnose issues with process or review specific failure criteria post-
test.

Contains detailed log of transactions between the application and the
device. Record of commands sent and received. Typically used to diagnose
issues with PC or drivers.

tilator\EMV Model & SN\
Contains .cvs files for each discrete test. Tests typically have 2 files
associated with them, a “VV” and a “DB” file. The “VV” file is a condensed,
more readable format. The “DB” file, while less readable contains
information in a database format. Typically, “VV” files are used to assess the
calibration applied to the device and assist in understanding device/Test
station behavior.
