Propaq M Product Functions
ECG Monitoring
The patient’s ECG is monitored by connecting the patient to the unit via a 3-, 5-, or 12-lead
patient cable. The ECG waveform is presented on the display along with the following
information:
• averaged heart rate, derived by measuring R to R intervals
• lead selection - I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6 (with ECG cable).
• ECG size - 0.125, 0.25, 0.50, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 cm/mV, AUTO
• status messages
The ECG bandwidth is user selectable.
Batteries
Propaq M models use an easily replaced rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack (the SurePower
II Battery Pack). A new, fully charged battery pack typically delivers more than 8 hours of ECG
monitoring. Use of other functions (such as higher screen brightness or shorter NIBP intervals)
reduces this time.
When a LOW BATTERY icon appears on the display and the unit emits three beeps in
conjunction with the displayed battery icon, the battery must be replaced and recharged.
You can charge the battery by either of the following methods:
• Internal charging — plug the Propaq M into an auxiliary power adapter to automatically
begin charging the installed battery pack. The front panel battery indicator operates as
follows:
Note: Upon power up, it takes approximately 45 seconds for the LEDs on the battery to
accurately display run time.
• External charging — use the ZOLL SurePower Battery Charger with the Propaq M/MD
Charger Adaptor to charge the battery pack and test the battery’s capacity. For details, refer
to the SurePower II Battery Pack Guide.
The Recalibration LED icon ( ) lights for approximately 10 seconds (after you press and
release the Display button) if the battery needs to be calibrated. If the Recalibration LED lights,
the runtime indicator will not display run time for that battery. For best performance of the
battery, you should recalibrate the battery as soon as possible.
To manually recalibrate the SurePower II Battery Pack, you can insert the battery into the
SurePower Charger Station and perform a Manual Test (for more information, see the ZOLL
SurePower Charger Station Operator’s Guide).
