About the configuration worksheet
The first step in customizing a monitor configuration is to complete a configuration
worksheet. This defines the settings to be stored in the monitor.
Print the worksheet (
to
of this document) and supply the values for
any settings you want to change. When the worksheet is complete, give it to the person
designated to create the new configuration file.
About defaults
The settings defined for the monitor when it first arrives from the factory are called
‘factory defaults’. Factory defaults include settings for most parameters and also define
whether certain monitor features are enabled or disabled.
An example of a default setting:
The default volume of the alarm tone is Medium. To change the default volume level
to Low, select Low in the configuration file. (Like many other monitor settings, the
volume of the alarm tone can also be changed by the clinician while the monitor is in
use. The configuration simply defines what the setting will be when the monitor
power is turned on.)
An example of enabled and disabled features:
The monitor behavior Pacer Indicator On Default has a default value of No, so the
monitor does not, by default, include pacemaker indicators in an ECG waveform
display. To change the default behavior so that the monitor does show pacemaker
indicators in an ECG waveform display, change the value to Yes in the custom
configuration.
The configuration file did not install on the monitor. Verify all connections between
monitor, cradle, and PC and try again. If problems continue, contact Welch Allyn
customer service.

Message
WARNING You must read and understand the warning statements in
on page 131 before any configuration file is
created based on a worksheet.
Note
A worksheet is not required. The worksheet makes it possible for key clinical staff
to preview and approve the configuration, and it makes it easier to create the
configuration file.
