The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is designed to prepare emergency responders to use the Heartstart FR2 AED. This Trainer
provides a variety of simulations, or training scripts, to help responders become familiar with the AED and allow them to
demonstrate the basic skills necessary to use the AED in an emergency.
NOTE: Before using the FR2 AED, the responder should have completed an appropriate responder training program, which may
include the use of the Laerdal AED Trainer 2. Having completed such a course, the responder should demonstrate a proficiency in
assessing the patient for lack of responsiveness, absence of breathing, and lack of circulation; cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR);
and knowledge of applicable medical protocols and procedures.

- The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 provides simulated shock delivery. It has no high-voltage capabilities, ensuring safety dur-
ing training. Important: Remember handling safety when using working defibrillators that give a high-voltage shock.
- The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is designed for use with the AED Little Anne and AED Resusci Anne manikins with
Laerdal Link Technology by giving responses to pad placement on the manikins. It can also be used with any other
manikin. Important: Realistic responses to pad placement feature is only available when used together with the AED Little
Anne or AED Resusci Anne manikins with Laerdal Link Technology.
- The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 can be used with an optional infrared remote control. The remote control gives the
instructor the ability to control the training scenarios.
- The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is pre-configured with 10 training scenarios that simulate realistic sudden cardiac arrest
episodes. See page 6 for scenario descriptions. These scenarios are compatible with training programs developed
by nationally and internationally recognized responder programs. Check with your local medical director and
Emergency Medical System for additional training requirements, protocols, and materials. In addition, three custom
scenarios can be created using the optional Scenario Builder PC software. (See accessories on page 5).
- The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 can be connected to the serial port of a PC (generally labeled "COM1"). The optional
PC software lets you configure custom training scenarios, set-up various protocol parameters and change language
output. Connection to a PC serial port requires a standard 1:1 9-pin D-sub serial cable.
