10 Getting started Welch Allyn Propaq Encore Vital Signs Monitor Input fuse Power input connector Defib sync connector The input fuse, which protects the Propaq Encore against power surges, is a 3-Ampere fuse, externally replaceable by qualified service personnel. See “Replacing the fuse” on page 92 for fuse replacement instructions. This receptacle accepts the Welch Allyn ac power adapter, which must be used for ac mains operation and battery charging. The Propaq Encore is also designed to operate with other 12-28 volt, dc-only power sources, such as a vehicle battery system. This connector allows connection with a LIFEPAK 5 or LIFEPAK 6s defibrillator for synchronized cardioversion. See “Real-time ECG analog/defib sync” on page 101. Real-time ECG output connector Battery charging light This connector provides a real-time analog ECG signal output. This green light turns on when a power source (ac power adapter or external dc source) is connected and the battery is charging. Although the monitor may be turned off, battery charging continues when an external power source is connected. Connector for Acuity or Modem-Propaq Alarm lights ALARM light ALARM(S) OFF light This connector allows either direct connection to an Acuity System, or connection to an external modem for telecommunication to an Acuity System. For more information about the Acuity System, see “Acuity Central Monitoring system” on page 85. For more information about the Modem-Propaq, refer to Modem-Propaq Reference Guide. Alarms and limits are described in detail beginning on “Alarms and limits” on page 69. When an alarm limit is violated, the red ALARM light turns on. When any alarm limit is turned off, the yellow ALARM(S) OFF light turns on.
Reference Guide Getting started 11 Power-up screen WELCH ALLYN MODEL PROPAQ 204 DIAGNOSTICS IN PROGRESS When you first turn on the monitor, the power-up screen displays information about the Propaq Encore and the monitor runs diagnostic tests to ensure proper functioning. BATTERY: 8.3 VOLTS SOFTWARE VERSION 2.50.00 (c) WELCH ALLYN PROTOCOL INC. 1988-2007 A few seconds later, the top two lines of the screen are replaced with text indicating the current patient mode (adult, pediatric, or neonatal). PEDIATRIC MODE DIAGNOSTICS IN PROGRESS BATTERY: 8.3 VOLTS SOFTWARE VERSION 2.50.00 (c) WELCH ALLYN PROTOCOL INC. 1988-2007 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. 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. 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. 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 “Monitor setup” on page 20 to change the patient mode.) 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. 3. Verify the battery voltage is sufficient for monitoring. If it is less than 7.4 V, connect to a power adapter (see “Power adapter intended use” 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).
