Operator’s Manual Addendum
Update to graphics
This section updates Operator’s Manual section 6 to reflect these enhancements to
graphics displays:
• The PLOT 1 and PLOT 2 buttons now display drop-down menus of available
selections with the current selection highlighted.
• If a pressure-time waveform is selected and the spontaneous type is TC or PA, a
new SHADOW TRACE button is displayed. The SHADOW TRACE button
allows you to enable or disable the graphic display of carinal pressure or lung
pressure when TC or PA is active.
• The pressure-time curve now shows an estimate of carinal pressure (PCARI) or
lung pressure (PLUNG) as a shaded area within the waveform when the
spontaneous breath type is TC or PA, respectively.
NOTE:
The graphic display of carinal or lung pressure is an estimate, not an actual
measurement.
Printing graphics
Frozen graphics can now be printed. When graphics are frozen on the screen and
the selected device for RS-232 serial port 1 is a printer, a PRINT button now
appears in the upper left corner of the screen. Follow these steps to print frozen
graphics:
1. Touch the PRINT button. The flashing message PRINTING replaces the PLOT
SETUP, UNFREEZE, and PRINT buttons. You may stop printing by touching
the CANCEL button.
2. Once all graphics data has been sent to the printer, the PLOT SETUP,
UNFREEZE, and PRINT buttons reappear.
NOTE:
To print graphics, RS-232 serial port 1 must be configured with PRINTER as the
selected device.
