Preparing to Take Measurements
The Temperature option has two temperature channels (T1 and T2). You must select and connect an
appropriate temperature probe for each channel used.
Selecting a Temperature Probe
Use only disposable or reusable YSI 400 compatible temperature probes. See "Ordering Accessories"
on page 8 for a list of ZOLL-approved temperature probes.
CAUTION!
Do not use YSI 700 series temperature probes. Doing so may result in an
inaccurate temperature measurement.
WARNING! The use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those
specified by ZOLL may result in increased emissions or decreased
immunity of the M Series.
Turning on the Monitor
To turn on the monitor:
• Turn the selector switch to MONITOR (ON for AED units).
Connecting the Temperature Probe
Using two temperature probes requires a 2-channel Y-adapter. See "Ordering Accessories" on page 8.
To connect the temperature probe:
1. Inspect the temperature probe and cable for wear, breakage or fraying. Replace if necessary.
2. Follow manufacturer’s directions for use and your hospital’s protocols on how to apply the
temperature probe to the patient.
3. If you are using a disposable temperature probe, connect the temperature probe to the
temperature cable.
4. If you are using two temperature probes, connect Y-adapter to temperature connector on the front
panel of the M Series unit (see Figure 1: on page 3).
5. Connect the temperature probe cable(s) to the temperature connector or Y-adapter.
6. Verify that neither the CHECK TEMP PROBE nor the REPLACE TEMP PROBE messages
display.
If desired, repeat steps 1 - 6 to connect a second temperature probe.
