Operating Messages
The unit uses both audio and visual prompts to present critical information to operators. The
following information describes the unit default configuration. If your device has been custom
configured, some of the information may be different.
There are 10 voice prompts used in AED mode. Most of these prompts are accompanied by a
message displayed on the monitor. The voice prompts are given only once, but the monitor
continues to display the message until new action is taken by the operator or the device status
changes.
The unit will alternately display two different messages in the same field of the display when
two conditions are detected at the same time. For example, a LOW BATTERY message may
alternately display on the same line of the monitor as the CHECK PADS message.
