Print Hardkey<br />

Freeze Hardkey<br />

Using the <strong>Dash</strong> <strong>2500</strong> <strong>Patient</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong>: Hardkeys<br />

The Print hardkey initiates recordings at the recorder/printer. You can use the<br />

Print hardkey to print to a central station if the record key printout in the setup<br />

recorder menu option is set to print at CS or if the recorder/printer is not<br />

connected to the <strong>Dash</strong> <strong>2500</strong> <strong>Patient</strong> <strong>Monitor</strong>. The recorder/printer provides<br />

thermal paper recordings of patient information such as waveforms and vital<br />

signs. Refer to the Recorder/Printer section of this manual for instructions on<br />

setting up the recorder/printer.<br />

How to record a timed printout of patient waveforms<br />

1. Ensure that paper is properly loaded into the recorder/printer.<br />

2. Quick-push the Print hardkey to start recording a timed printout of chosen<br />

waveforms on the screen.<br />

3. Quick-push the Print hardkey to stop recording chosen waveforms.<br />

How to record a continuous printout of patient<br />

waveforms<br />

1. Ensure that paper is properly loaded into the recorder/printer.<br />

2. Push-and-hold the Print hardkey to start a continuous recording of chosen<br />

waveforms on the screen.<br />

3. Quick-push the Print hardkey to stop recording chosen waveforms.<br />

NOTE: If the <strong>Monitor</strong> is in alarm mode, push-and-holding the Print<br />

hardkey terminates alarm mode and starts a continuous recording.<br />

No interruption of waveform recording occurs. If the <strong>Monitor</strong> is in<br />

timed mode, push-and-holding the Print hardkey terminates timed<br />

mode and starts a continuous recording. Interruption of waveform<br />

recording occurs because different waveforms can be selected.<br />

The Freeze hardkey captures up to 16.8 seconds of previous and future waveform<br />

data (separated by a caret) for all displayed waveforms. This data is captured and<br />

displayed at the same rate as the real-time waveform displayed in the waveform<br />

field. The following table lists all available waveform display sweep speeds and the<br />

number of seconds captured when the Freeze hardkey is pressed.<br />

Sweep Speed Total<br />

(Seconds)<br />

Previous/Future<br />

(Seconds)<br />

50.0 mm/s 4.2 2.1<br />

25.0 mm/s 8.4 4.2<br />

12.5 mm/s 16.8 8.4<br />

6.25 mm/s 16.8 8.4<br />
