      • APEX Paddle. The APEX paddle test performs two (2) leakage measurements. One with closed ground; the other with open ground. Both measurements are taken under normal polarity and closed neutral conditions. Before these tests execute, this message displays:
      • Sternum Paddle. The sternum paddle test is similar to the APEX paddle test. Two (2) leakage measurements are taken, again with closed ground and with open ground. Both measurements are taken under normal polarity and closed neutral conditions. Before these tests execute, this message displays:
      • Energy Tests. Energy tests execute in the low range and again in the high range. Low Range is defined as 0-50 joules, and High Range is greater than 50 joules. Defibrillator autosequences are set at the factory so that low range energy step tests execute before high range energy step tests. You can customize your defibrillator testing so that this order is reversed. Prior to executing these tests, this message appears in the medTester€5000C display:
      • MAX Energy Test. This test measures the maximum length of time the EUT requires to charge to its maximum energy level. The test also measures the actual energy level. To perform this test do the following:
      • Cardioversion Test. If this test is turned on in the custom menu, you can perform the test:
