Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
The test receptacle is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. In the
event of a fault in the EUT (when the test receptacle is powered on) which
causes a current imbalance in the hot and neutral lines of greater than 5 mA,
the interrupter triggers. Under this condition, the interrupter turns off the test
receptacle and all test connections, and the medTester prompts you to correct
the fault and continue.
Performance Waveforms
The medTester 5000C generates ECG waves and arrhythmias to test the
performance of patient monitors in those medTesters that have the
Waveform/Extended Testing Module installed. You can find information
about conducting waveform tests in Chapter 7, Performance Waves.
Specifications for waveforms and arrhythmias are:
