Propaq LT monitor
To start Propaq LT monitor communication with the Acuity System and connect the
patient to the monitor
1. Use a Propaq LT monitor that is designated for use within the Acuity System network
in which the patient will be monitored.
2. Turn on the monitor.
3. In the top right area of the Propaq LT monitor screen, verify that the battery icon is
green, which indicates that the battery is fully charged.
If it is not green, monitor the patient with another (fully charged) monitor.
4. Attach the lead wires to the electrodes.
5. Apply the electrodes to the patient.
6. Attach the cables to the monitor last, to optimize waveform interpretation during the
initial Acuity System learning phase.
7. Look for a steady green light at the top of the monitor to confirm that the monitor is
communicating with the Acuity System.
If the monitor is not communicating with the Acuity System, use another monitor.
