Enable Pacer Detection

Allows you to specify whether the unit should detect pacemaker signals from a patient with an
implantable pacemaker and indicate those signals on the display. When set to Yes, a pacemaker
marker is displayed on the ECG trace whenever the unit detects implanted pacer stimuli.

You can override this setting during normal operations. This parameter simply indicates the
default setting at power-on.

Gain On Power-Up

Sets the default SIZE of the displayed ECG signal (AGC, 0.5 cm/mV, 1 cm/mV, 1.5 cm/mV,
and 2 cm/mV) when the device is powered-up.

Retain SYNC after Defib

Sets the unit to remain in SYNC mode after a synchronized cardioversion shock. The unit will
remain in SYNC mode until the SYNC button is pressed again or the unit is switched out of
Defib mode.

Auto Generate Strips

Sets the strip chart recorder to automatically begin printing after a defibrillator discharge or
whenever alarms are triggered while in manual mode. (Unit must be equipped with the optional
strip chart recorder feature.)

Print 3 Leads When Leads Sel

When enabled, the strip chart recorder will automatically print three (3) simultaneous leads of
the patient ECG when Leads are selected and a five (5) lead or 12-lead ECG cable is in use.

Note:

This option is temporarily suspended during CPR monitoring.

Report Memory Card Errors

Allows the user to disable memory card error messages and voice prompts.

If this option is set to “No”, the unit suppresses all error messages (i.e., “INSERT CARD”,
“REPLACE CARD”, “CARD FULL”, and “CARD LOW < n MINUTES”) related to the use of
the memory card.

Auto Analyze on Power Up (AED Semi-Automatic Mode)

When set to “Yes”, the unit will automatically begin an ECG rhythm analysis as soon as the
device is turned on and pads are properly connected. An “ANALYZING ECG” message will be
displayed for 5 seconds and a “STAND CLEAR” message is displayed and announced
indicating the start of the analysis. If the Auto Analyze option is enabled, the analysis will be
the first of a stacked shock sequence.

Note:

The unit must be turned off for 10 seconds or more for the analysis to auto -start when
the device is turned on.

Extra CPR Interval Before 1st Analysis

This parameter pertains only to Auto Defib mode in AED units.

When this parameter is set to No (default), and the unit detects a pad connection upon power-
on, it displays the “PRESS ANALYZE” prompt. If the unit is powered on with no pads
connected, the unit displays the “ATTACH PADS” prompt until pads are connected. Once pads
are connected, the “PRESS ANALYZE” prompt is displayed.

When this parameter is set to Yes, the unit displays alternating prompts “CHECK PULSE” and
“IF NO PULSE, PERFORM CPR” for the configured Extra CPR Interval at power-on. At the
end of the CPR period, if the unit does not detect a pads connection, it displays the prompt
“ATTACH PADS” until pads are connected. If a pads connection is detected, and the system is
configured to Auto Analyze On Power Up, the unit automatically starts an ECG analysis. If the
