CHARGE Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Charges the defibrillator to the selected
energy. In addition to the CHARGE button on the front panel, there is
one located on the apex paddle handle.

SHOCK Button

The front panel SHOCK button is only active when using OneStep
electrodes, hands-free therapy electrodes (see “R Series Accessories”
on page B-1 for a list), external autoclavable paddles, or internal
defibrillation paddles without a discharge button. The SHOCK button
illuminates when the device is charged and ready.

To discharge the defibrillator when using paddles (internal or external)
with discharge buttons, press and hold the SHOCK buttons on the
paddles.

ANALYZE Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Initiates ECG analysis to determine
whether or not a shockable rhythm is present.

LEAD Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Selects the ECG source for display and
printing. Pressing this button sequentially selects ECG signals derived
from each of the following lead configurations: I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF,
PADDLES, or PADS, P1, P2, and P3 (when using OneStep Pacing
electrodes, or OneStep Complete electrodes with OneStep Pacing
cable) for display. The PADS or PADDLES lead setting is automatically
selected when the defibrillator is turned to Manual mode with either
hands-free therapy electrodes or paddles attached to the OneStep
cable. Lead II or P3 (OneStep Pacing) is automatically selected when
the R Series is powered up in PACER mode. Pads or Paddles
monitoring is not available in PACER mode.

SIZE Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Selects the amplitude scale for the
displayed ECG waveform. Available sizes are 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 3
centimeters per millivolt (cm/mV).

ALARM SUSPEND
Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Activates, deactivates or audibly

suspends all alarm functions. A bell symbol (

) appears on the display

when alarms are enabled. When alarms are either audibly or
permanently disabled, an “X” appears across the bell (

) symbol.

RECORDER Button

Displays in Manual mode only. Starts or stops the stripchart recorder.
When the ECG lead is selected, you can switch the unit to diagnostic
ECG bandwidth (0.05 - 150Hz) by pressing and holding the
RECORDER button. Diagnostic bandwidth is maintained as long as the
RECORDER button is held down. When the RECORDER button is
released, the unit reverts to standard monitoring bandwidth.

PACER OUTPUT mA
(optional)

When pacing is selected, this control sets the amount of current
delivered. The selected current setting is indicated on the display.

PACER RATE ppm
(optional)

When pacing is selected, this control sets the rate (pulses per minute) at
which the pacemaker will operate. The selected pace rate setting is
indicated on the display.

4:1 Button
(optional)

This button is used to determine a patient’s underlying ECG rhythm.
While depressed, this button causes pacing stimuli to be delivered at ¼
of the indicated ppm setting. When the button is released, normal
pacing resumes.
