Trending Enabled
When set to “Yes”, the M Series unit will print and display trend reports as long as the
appropriate hardware is installed. Defaults to “No” for units not equipped with the appropriate
hardware.
AED Defib Ready Hold Time (AED Semi-Automatic
Mode)
Sets the number of seconds the unit sounds a charge ready tone, indicating that the defibrillator
is charged and ready to use. The charge ready tone stops when you discharge the defibrillator or
when the hold time for the charge ready tone has elapsed. You can set the hold time for the
charge ready tone to 15 seconds or 60 seconds. The default is 15 seconds.
Battery Type Used
Allows the user to select between the PD 4410 battery (default) and the newer XL battery. To
maximize battery life, it is important that the setting reflect the actual battery in use. Each
battery type has a different threshold for “low battery” and “shutdown”, and has a different
Amp-hour rating.
WARNINGS:
If an XL battery is installed in an M Series, the user must ensure that the “BATTERY TYPE
USED” is set to “XL Battery.” Otherwise, the M Series may abnormally terminate battery
charging prior to completion when charging a depleted or nearly depleted XL battery. If
battery charging is abnormally terminated, the M Series battery will toggle the “CHARGER
ON” light between amber and green, and, when M Series power is applied, it will display the
message “BATT. OVERCHARGE” on the screen for approximately 30 seconds.
Note that if battery charging is abnormally terminated because the “BATTERY TYPE USED”
has been incorrectly set to “PD 4410”, the XL battery can still be charged to completion by
cycling M Series power from “off” to “on” and then back to “off” to clear this condition.
Incorrectly setting “BATTERY TYPE USED” to “PD 4410” when an XL battery is installed
will cause the “LOW BATTERY” warning message to be displayed on the M Series screen
prematurely.
Incorrectly setting the selection to “XL battery” when a PD 4410 battery is installed will
inappropriately delay issuance of the “LOW BATTERY” warning and severely limit the
number of defibrillation shocks which can be delivered between the onset of the “LOW
BATTERY” warning message and the M Series shutdown.
