Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout Performing a Functional Checkout Initial Conditions Turn on the transmitter, the receiver, and the monitor attached to the receiver. + Figure 4-13. Applying Power Testing the Radio Frequency 1. Check the status of the Signal indicator on the receiver: u Continuous Green: indicates the transmitter is active and the batteries have adequate capacity. u Flashing Green: indicates the signal strength is weak or marginal. 2.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout Testing the Ultrasound Functions ,03257$17 TRANSDUCER TYPE—Use only Corometrics 5700 Series Ultrasound Transducers with the Model 340 Telemetry System. 1. Plug an ultrasound transducer into the Ultrasound connector on the transmitter. Figure 4-14. Connecting an Ultrasound Transducer 2. Verify the following: u Models 115, 145: The corresponding FHR display reads 0 BPM.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout 4. Plug the headset into the transmitter’s headset connector . Figure 4-15. Connecting the Headset 5. Rub the face of the ultrasound transducer. Verify that you can hear ultrasound audio tones from both sides of the headset.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout Testing the ECG Functions 127( Not all monitors have a legplate tester. Refer to your monitor’s operator’s manual for complete information. 1. Slide the legplate into the monitor’s Legplate Tester jack and hold firmly in place. (The legplate tester uses an internal ECG simulator circuit for testing cable/legplate assemblies. The tester simulates a signal of 120 BPM ± 1 BPM.) 2. Plug the other end into the ECG connector on the transmitter.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout Testing the UA Functions 1. Place the receiver’s UA Mode Selector switch in the TOCO position. ,03257$17 TRIMLINE TOCOTRANSDUCERS—If the monitor is on when you connect or re-connect a Trimline Tocotransducer to the UA connector, you must wait at least 10 seconds before pressing the UA Reference button. If the monitor is off, you must wait at least 10 seconds from the time the monitor is powered on. 2.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout 3. Press the monitor’s UA Reference button to set the UA value to 10 relative units. Verify the following on the monitor: u If the monitor has a UA display: the display reads 10 relative units. u If the monitor does not have a UA display: turn on the strip chart recorder and check that the UA REF message and TOCO mode annotation both print on the paper. 4.
Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout Testing the Remote Event Marker Function 1. Plug the Remote Event Marker into the transmitter’s Remote Marks connector. 2. Turn on the monitor’s strip chart recorder. 3. Press the Remote Event Marker’s pushbutton for at least one second.
