24 Functional verification Welch Allyn Propaq CS Vital Signs Monitor
8. Move the wire and scope probe from the ECG pin of the ECG X1000 connector to the
DEFIB SYNC connector pin shown in the figure below or use Defib Sync Output
cable, 008-0237-00. Leave the scope’s ground clip where it is.

9. Change the vertical sensitivity of the scope to 1 Volt/division.
10. Check that the scope displays a 5 V p-p pulse with a 100 ±5 ms width.
11. Disconnect the scope probe and ground clip and remove the wires from the
connectors.
12. Using either a LIFEPAK 5 or LIFEPAK 6s and appropriate Welch Allyn adapter, set up
the monitor and defibrillator according to instructions provided in the Defib Sync
User’s Guide.
13. Check the monitor display for sync markers on the ECG waveform.
14. Disconnect the defibrillator from the monitor.
15. Disconnect the ECG cable from the monitor. (Disconnecting an active channel
initiates an equipment alarm; press any key to acknowledge the discontinuance of
ECG monitoring.)
IBP channel
The following procedure verifies the operation of the invasive blood pressure channels.
Some models of the monitor have no IBP channels; skip this procedure if your monitor
does not support IBP. If your monitor has multiple IBP channels, repeat the verification
procedure for each channel.
Note
Some amount of mains noise may also be present in the signal.
Note
If the patient simulator does not also provide an appropriate ECG signal, the heart
rate value will be displayed as “– – –” and an alarm violation will occur.

Caution Many blood pressure simulators are not intended to be used as
calibration standards. Use only the blood pressure simulators specified in
“Required equipment” on page 14.
Note
If you are using the Fluke (Dynatech/Nevada) model 213A, 215A, or 217A patient
simulator, do not simultaneously monitor ECG and invasive blood pressure (IBP)
unless the modification to the simulator is performed as described in “Fluke
patient simulator modification” on page 137. If you do not wish to modify your
simulator, use ECG and IBP independently.
