Power-up screen
1.
If the Propaq Encore has been used for a previous patient, switch the monitor off,
then on again. The monitor will turn on in the powerup patient mode with the
associated settings.
2.
Verify the monitor is in the correct patient mode according to the patient’s age. If the
patient mode is not correct, change it. (See
on page 20 to change
the patient mode.)
3.
Verify the battery voltage is sufficient for monitoring. If it is less than 7.4 V, connect to
a power adapter (see
on page 89 for information about
the power adapter).
Power-up equipment alert: program fault, settings lost
If a PROGRAM FAULT: SETTINGS LOST, TIME/DAY RESET equipment alert appears when
you turn on the monitor, the monitor cannot recall the programmed custom settings and
current time and date. This can occur if the battery is drained or after new software has
been installed.
If this occurs, the monitor provides a special sequence of display windows to help you
regain use of your monitor as quickly as possible. Do the following:
1.
Connect an ac power adapter to recharge the battery (if the battery is drained).
WARNING Before you use a Propaq on a new patient, always turn off the Propaq
for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend
values, alarm limit settings, and NIBP cuff inflation target.
Note
Verify that the powerup tone is produced. If the monitor has SpO
2
, verify two
tones are produced to make sure that both speakers are working.
WARNING Always check the patient mode when monitoring a new patient. The
patient mode determines default alarm limits, maximum cuff inflation pressure,
and internal algorithm settings.
