The IACS is a fully networked solution that offers
patient monitoring, therapy, and IT applications at
the point of care.
Dräger developed the IACS to solve problems
common in the acute care environment. As a result,
the IACS provides standardized user interfaces,
improves workplace ergonomics and flexibility, and
centralizes patient data at the point of care. The
IACS also provides the ability to backfill information
automatically after patient transport. An M540 on
wireless transport transmits the data to the ICS
(Infinity CentralStation) during transport.
The central component of the IACS is the Cockpit.
This medical-grade workstation provides
centralized viewing and control of Infinity
monitoring systems and IT applications at the point
of care. The Cockpit is available in the following
sizes:
DisplayScreen width
nd
C500 (2
C700 (2
generation)17-inch (43.2 cm)
nd
generation)20-inch (50.8 cm)
Both offer a large viewing angle, extended screen
layout capabilities, and a fan-less design.
The common Dräger-standardized user interface
offers intuitive operation via a touchscreen and a
rotary knob. A 360-degree alarm bar alerts the user
to the alarm conditions of a patient.

Operating concept
M540 and Cockpit communication
Communication between the M540 and the Cockpit
starts as soon as the M540 is docked in the M500
(see page 93). The M540 acquires physiological
signals from the patient and relays them to the
Cockpit for display. The Cockpit then makes the
patient data available to the Infinity network.
When the M540 is docked, the Cockpit assumes
the annunciation of all acoustic alarm signals.
However, alarms are always reported optically at
the Cockpit and at the M540. When the M540 is
undocked for transport, it provides acoustic alarm
signals. In addition, the ICS can assume the
annunciation of acoustic alarm signals for an M540
on wireless transport.
NOTE
For alarms to also sound at the M540 when it is
docked, select the alarm volume at the M540
manually. For information, refer to the M540
instructions for use.
The only exceptions are Cockpit-specific alarm
messages such as External device disconnected
for which the M540 does not report any acoustic
and optical alarm signals.
When the M540 is docked, any changes to the
patient setup such as alarm limits made on the
Cockpit are automatically transferred to the M540
(and vice versa).
Docking the M540
As soon as the user docks the M540 in the M500,
the following happens at the Cockpit:
– The message Connecting to M540 appears in
the center of the Cockpit screen.
– The Cockpit makes the data of the M540
available to the Infinity network.
NOTE
If the user docks an M540 with a patient category
that differs from the one selected on the Cockpit,
the patient category setting of the Cockpit
changes to match the one of the M540.
Docking to the same Cockpit
If the user undocks an M540 from a Cockpit and
later docks the M540 to the same Cockpit, the data
collection continues seamlessly. The Cockpit
automatically retrieves any data the M540 collected
while on patient transport and merges it with the
data set for that patient.
NOTE
If the M540 cannot communicate with the Cockpit,
the Cockpit sounds an alarm. In addition, an
alarm indicating a loss of communication is
broadcast over the network to the Infinity
CentralStation (ICS) provided the patient is
admitted there. The M540 continues to monitor
the patient.
46Instructions for use – Infinity Acute Care System – Monitoring Applications VG6.n
Page 47
Operating concept
Docking to a different Cockpit
CAUTION
Before connecting the M540 to a different
Cockpit, make sure that the units of measure align
between the two devices. Differing units of
measure could result in loss of data or a patient
discharge.
If the user undocks an M540 from a Cockpit and
later docks the M540 to a different Cockpit, the
original data are automatically retrieved over the
network by the new Cockpit. The new Cockpit then
automatically merges this data with any data the
M540 collected while on patient transport. The
original Cockpit automatically discharges the
patient once all patient data are transferred.
When moving the M540 between Cockpits in
different monitoring units, the time stamps may
differ occasionally between the Cockpit and the
M540.
If not all patient data was transferred, the message
Transfer of Data Incomplete appears in the
header bar of the new Cockpit. In this case, the
original Cockpit does not discharge the patient.
Undocking the M540
When the user undocks the M540, the following
happens:
– The message Disconnected from M540
appears in the center of the Cockpit screen.
– When the M540 is not in wireless mode, a
message appears at the ICS that the bed is
disconnected. When the wireless option for an
M540 is activated and configured properly, the
ICS displays the wireless symbol.
– Data are no longer trended at the Cockpit.
– With each docking or undocking of an M540,
there is a short transition period. One minute of
trend data collected during this transition period
may not be displayed at an ICS equipped with
software version VG1. However, this trend data
can be reviewed at the Cockpit.
– Several buttons remain active on the main
menu bar of the Cockpit:
– Alarms... for accessing the alarm history.
– Trends/ Data... for accessing the trend
data.
– Start/Standby... for accessing the Start tab
from where the user can initiate a patient
discharge.
– The current patient data from the Cockpit are no
longer available to the Infinity network.
However, when the wireless option for an M540
is activated and configured properly, it
continues to make the data available to the
Infinity network.
– Parameter values acquired using the device
connectivity option are no longer available to
the Infinity network.
Instructions for use – Infinity Acute Care System – Monitoring Applications VG6.n47

Operating concept
Communicating with the Infinity network
When the M540 is docked on the M500 and the
IACS is connected to the network, the patient data
are available on the Infinity network. When the
setting, Enable Central Station is activated, the
Cockpit provides additional messages and alarm
tones for central monitoring. For more information,
see page 46.
Communicating with the Infinity network has the
following benefits:
– Patient data are sent across the Infinity network
to connected devices.
– The alarm status of the patient is reported to the
Infinity network and its connected devices. If
multiple alarm conditions are present, the alarm
with the highest alarm priority is reported.
– The patient can be admitted at the ICS for
central monitoring. The IACS is fully compatible
with ICS software VG8.12 or higher.
WARNING
When the M540 is connected to the Infinity
network, make sure that the ICS is equipped
with software version VF8.10 or a later version. On earlier versions of the ICS, gaps in
the waveform may be displayed in the Full Disclosure application of the ICS after docking or
undocking a wireless M540.
– You can view the Cockpit from other Infinity
monitors within the same monitoring unit using
the remote view function (see page 53).
– From the Cockpit you can view other bedside
monitors (including other Cockpits) in the same
monitoring unit using the remote view function
(see page 51).
NOTE
Two IACS monitoring devices in the same
monitoring unit on the network, may result in a
perceived time drift of a maximum of 80 seconds
between each other.
Loss of connection to the network
When the Cockpit loses connection to the Infinity
network and the feature Offline detection is
activated (see page 476), the following happens:
– A single notification alarm of low alarm priority
sounds once within 25 seconds of the offline
condition until the communication with the
network is restored or the alarm is
acknowledged. The alarm tone sounds even if
alarms are paused or the alarm volume has
been deactivated.
– The alarm volume is automatically adjusted to
100% until the network connection is restored.
Once the Cockpit re-establishes
communication with the network, the previous
alarm volume is restored.
– The message Offline appears on cyan
background in the network message area of the
Cockpit until the connection to the network is
restored.
When the wireless option is activated and
configured properly, the M540 switches to wireless
transport mode automatically within ten seconds of
being undocked from the M500 (see “Undocking
the M540“ on page 47). For detailed information on
how an M540 behaves on wireless transport, refer
to the instructions for use Infinity Acute Care
System – Infinity M540.
M540 in standalone mode
When the wireless option is activated and
configured, a standalone M540 communicates
wirelessly with the Infinity network when undocked.
When docked, a wireless M540 transitions back to
a wired connection, and the wireless symbol is
replaced by the network symbol .
For detailed information on how the M540 behaves
in standalone mode, see the Instructions for use
entitled Infinity Acute Care System – Infinity M540.

Using remote view functions
From the Remote view dialog, the user can
perform the following functions:
– Select the Disconnect button (A) to exit the
remote view.
– Select the Audio Pause button (B) to pause
acoustic alarm signals at the remote device.
– Select the Continuous Recording (C) or
Timed Recording (D) buttons to request a
recording of the remote device. The recordings
are printed on the recorder that is assigned to
the Cockpit.
Central monitoring
When a Cockpit communicates with the Infinity
network, the user can admit the patient at the ICS
for central monitoring. A Cockpit patient is
represented on the ICS with a viewport and a bed
view. A viewport consists of the top Cockpit
waveform and the associated parameter field. The
ICS also provides a bed view which is a window
displaying the content of the Cockpit in greater
detail. When the Cockpit is communicating with the
ICS, the waveforms and parameter fields are
assigned to the bed view based on the parameter
priority order.
NOTE
Due to potential time drifts between the IACS and
the ICS, when an alarm is generated from the
IACS, the waveform displayed on the ICS event
disclosure may not align with the timestamp of the
event. Place the cursor at the timestamp of the
event and then go to the ICS's Full Disclosure for
a more complete view of the waveforms.
Network communication interruptions
When the Cockpit loses communication with the
ICS, the following happens at the Cockpit when the
Enable Central Station setting is activated (see
page 475):
– The message Not Monitored By Central
appears on cyan background in the network
message area of the Cockpit.
– A single notification alarm of low alarm priority
sounds within 25 seconds until communication
with the ICS is restored or the alarm is
acknowledged. The alarm tone sounds even
when alarms are paused or the alarm volume
has been deactivated.
– The alarm volume is adjusted automatically to
100% until the condition clears. Once the
Cockpit re-establishes communication with the
ICS, the previous alarm volume is restored.
– The message System not monitored by ICS is
recorded in the alarm history.
When the communication between the Cockpit and
the ICS is restored, the Cockpit displays the
message System monitored by ICS in the alarm
history. The patient data are again accessible at the
ICS.
When the setting Enable Central Station is
deactivated (see page 475), none of the above
features are supported.
NOTE
When you select an event disclosure at the ICS
for a parameter with a decimal value, the
parameter rounds to the nearest whole number.

Operating concept
Remote control
If the remote control feature is activated (see
page 475), the user can perform the following
Cockpit functions remotely from the ICS:
NOTE
Remote control of arrhythmia settings from ICS is
only possible if the full arrhythmia option is
enabled on the Cockpit.
– Autoset alarm limits
– Initiate a relearning phase
– Audio pause acoustic alarm signals (see
page 121)
– Configure alarm limits and ST and arrhythmia
settings
– Request timed and continuous recordings
If the remote control feature is activated (see
page 475), the user can perform the following
Cockpit functions remotely from one of the
following devices: Delta XL or Kappa, Vista XL,
Gamma X XL:
– Request timed and continuous recordings
– Audio pause acoustic alarm signals
If several devices modify the patient settings of a
single Cockpit, the last update is always
implemented. For detailed information on
performing these functions at the ICS, refer to the
instructions for use Infinity CentralStation.
IT applications
Several optional IT applications provide remote
access to patient data from the Cockpit. For
example, the PatientWatch application (accessible
with the Infinity Gateway) allows viewing of up to
four different bedside monitors that are connected
to the Infinity network. If configured accordingly, IT
applications are accessible by selecting a tab on
the Cockpit. For more information, see “IT
applications (options)“on page 503.

Loss of power
Operating concept
A loss of power has the following effect:
– The Cockpit switches to battery charge for up to
five minutes before performing a safe shutdown
that preserves the integrity of the patient data
and reverts to the user-defined patient default
profile.
Locked options
The IACS supports several locked options. For a
list of options, refer to the instructions for use
Infinity Acute Care System – Monitoring
Accessories.
Temporary options
Temporary options make it possible for an M540 in
an IACS configuration to perform the intended
functions together with the Cockpit when the
devices do not share the same option setup. For
example, when an M540 with permanent options
docks to an IACS Cockpit that does not have the
same options activated, the M540 options
temporarily loans these options to the Cockpit.
Temporary options are deactivated when a patient
is discharged. However, they are retained if the
user turns the Cockpit or the M540 off and on.
– A medium-priority alarm is triggered at the
Cockpit and the message please plug in power supply appears.
– The M540 switches to battery charge for up to
three hours before performing a safe shutdown
that preserves the integrity of the patient data
and the user settings.

Monitoring area
The monitoring area of the Cockpit screen contains
waveforms and parameter fields that report the
current vital signs of the patient. The monitoring
area can also contain dialogs, mini-trends, an auto
view toolbar, ST parameters, vent loops, and so on.
The appearance of the monitoring area depends on
the selected view, which controls the layout and
content of the screen (see “Views“on page 74). The
appearance of the monitoring area also depends
on whether or not the split screen mode or minitrend display is selected (see page 458).
Instructions for use – Infinity Acute Care System – Monitoring Applications VG6.n61
When opening a dialog, the waveform channels
and parameter fields are reduced to fit on the right
side of the screen (see figure on page 64). This
display behavior prevents the vital signs from being
obscured while the user is performing setup tasks.
Selecting the Home button on the main menu bar
or pressing the rotary knob closes any open dialogs
and refreshes the screen.

Parameter fields
Each parameter field contains real-time values of a
parameter and a combination of the following
information:
– Parameter labels (including dynamic pressure
labels)
– Alarm limits (or crossed triangle symbols when
the alarm functions are deactivated)
– Units of measure (can be activated/deactivated)
– ECG heart blip (and pacer blip for paced
pulses), RRi blip, and SpO2 blip
–Time stamps
– Timers and time stamps for non-invasive blood
pressure
– Special source labels (for example, PLS for
heart rate signal source for pulse oximetry)
– Parameter-specific message fields for non-
invasive blood pressure and SpO2
The amount of information on a screen affects the
parameter field display. For example, the following
diagram shows a typical expanded SpO2
parameter field when enough space is available for
the larger parameter field. The primary parameter
value (A) appears bigger than the other
subordinate parameters who are displayed below
each other (B, C). The parameter labels (D) appear
above the respective parameter values.
The following example shows how the same
parameter field changes when more parameters
occupy the main screen. Each parameter field has
less space to display its content. The primary
parameter value (A) still appears bigger than the
subordinate parameters (B, C) which now all
appear on one line. The parameter labels (D) still
appear above the respective values.
479
When a parameter is in alarm, the parameter field
flashes in the color of the alarm priority and a
corresponding alarm message appears in the
header bar (see “Troubleshooting“on page 509).
The parameter fields displayed on the Cockpit for
each parameter are described in detail in each
parameter chapter.
Waveforms
The Cockpit displays a minimum of six seconds of
waveform data per waveform channel at a sweep
speed of 25 mm/s when no dialogs are open. The
amount of displayed waveforms depend on the size
of the Cockpit.
When the waveform option is activated, the Cockpit
displays up to 16 waveforms.
The following functions allow customization of the
waveforms:

Operating concept
– Changing the colors for individual parameters
(see, for example, how to change the color for
ECG on page 214)
– Changing the sweep speeds (see page 445)
Waveforms are drawn from left to right and can
contain the following information:
– Signal scales
–Grids
– Units of measure
– Parameter labels
– Pacer spikes
– QRS synchronization markers
– Respiration waveform markers to indicate
breath detection
– Messages (see page 63)
Supported messages
The Cockpit displays numerous messages that
indicate a special monitoring state that may affect
certain functionality. For example, when cardiac
bypass monitoring is activated, alarms are turned
off. The alarm message field of the header bar turns
red and the message Bypass Audio alarms off appears.
For a complete list of these messages, see
"Messages" on page 513.
NOTE
If the acquired signal does not fit in the waveform
channel, the top of the waveform may appear
clipped.
Freezing/stopping waveforms
Select the Freeze waveforms button on the
main menu bar.
All waveforms stop and the message Waveforms stopped appears on each waveform channel. After
approximately 60 seconds, the waveforms start
scrolling again. To restart the waveforms earlier,
select the Freeze waveforms button again.
Freezing waveforms does not affect continuous
monitoring of all parameters and does not freeze
waveforms on the M540.

Filtering the parameter content
Operating concept
To filter the content of the displayed parameters,
use the display filter button which appears in
the following dialogs:
– Parameter field of the Trends/Data dialog (see
page 162).
– Sensor parameters dialog where it appears to
the right of the parameter tabs.
– Alarms dialog (see page 129).
– Setup page for configuring the trend pages
(see page 167).
Auto and manual display modes
The user interface has two display modes: Auto
view and manual view.
Auto view mode
Auto view mode is a plug-and-play concept where
the content of the main screen depends on the
connected parameter signals. For example, as
soon as an SpO2 MCable is connected, the
associated parameters become available for
display. When the MCable is disconnected, the
parameters are removed from the screen
automatically.
NOTE
The NIBP parameter is always displayed. The
M540 does not detect the connection status for
this parameter.
The filter button toggles between an unfiltered and
filtered display. The filter is activated when the
display filter button appears on the light green
background. Any parameter that is not being
actively monitored is removed from the screen,
including parameter-specific setup buttons or tabs.
Selecting the button again changes the background
to dark green and deactivates the display filter. All
parameters, whether monitored or not, including
associated setup buttons or tabs are displayed.
Manual view mode
In manual view mode, parameters for display can
be selected even if they are not yet connected. In
this mode, the parameter pick list in the Auto view
page (see page 74) contains all parameters. The
parameters that are not connected appear gray in
the parameter pick list. In addition, the display filter
button is deactivated.
To select the desired display mode
1 Select System setup... from the main menu
bar.
2 Select the Screen setup tab.
3 Select the Auto view tab located along the right
side of the System setup dialog.
4 Select the Auto or Manual button next to the
Display mode menu selection.
Instructions for use – Infinity Acute Care System – Monitoring Applications VG6.n67
Page 68
Operating concept
Auto view setup toolbar
When the auto view mode is activated (see
page 446), the auto view setup toolbar appears
along the bottom of the screen. The auto view setup
toolbar is for configuring the parameter priority and
display status of a parameter. The auto view setup
toolbar is also visible whenever the user selects a
view that contains an auto view component.
Customizing the display
To suit clinical workflow needs, the following
changes can be made to the display:
– Screen brightness
– Method of interaction with the Cockpit
– Touchscreen calibration
– Monitoring area customization
Screen brightness
Control the brightness of the Cockpit screen by
selecting night and day mode (see page 445).
Night mode reduces the luminance of the screen so
it is less disturbing to a patient while providing
enough contrast for the clinical staff. During night
time mode, the entire background of the screen
appears almost black. All buttons turn dark gray.
Touchscreen versus mouse
It functions dynamically with the Auto view page
(see page 446) where the user selects the
maximum number of waveforms and parameter
fields and determines the parameter priority. Any
changes made on the auto view setup toolbar are
reflected on the Auto view page and vice versa.
Calibrating the touchscreen
If the touchscreen of the Cockpit is out of alignment,
it can be calibrated. During the calibration of the
screen, no waveforms are displayed on the
Cockpit. Therefore, never calibrate the screen
while monitoring a patient.
To calibrate the touchscreen
1 Press the rotary knob until the Calibrate Touch
Screen popup appears (requires several seconds).
2 Select the Calibrate button in the popup or
press the rotary knob again to access the
calibration screen.
3 Touch the red dots that appear on the screen in
sequence.
4 Select the green check mark symbol to
complete the calibration procedure.
Use the touchscreen or a mouse to interact with the
Cockpit. If the cursor is not visible after the mouse
has been connected, press the Alt and F10
keyboard keys simultaneously to display the cursor.

Cockpit split screen mode with mini-trends and IT tabs
The Cockpit supports IT applications that are
accessible via tabs.
The following diagram shows the Cockpit display
when the following options are unlocked and the
features are activated:
– The web-enabled layouts option is unlocked
and the Split screen feature is activated (see
page 447).
– The web-enabled IT tabs option is unlocked
– The Mini trends feature is activated (see
page 447).
Once the application is configured and the IT
application feature is activated (see page 479), the
corresponding tab appears to the left of the
monitoring area. The Patient tab (G) always
appears as the top tab. It always returns to the main
screen of the Cockpit for viewing the real-time
parameter display. For detailed information on

Parameter priority
Operating concept
The parameter priority determines what position a
parameter occupies on the screen. The number of
parameters appearing as waveforms and
parameter fields depends also on the selected
Waveforms setting (see page 447).
Use the Auto view page (see page 446) to
determine the display location and display status of
each parameter. Also, use the auto view setup
toolbar in auto view mode to change the parameter
priority (see page 449). In manual mode, the
parameter priority can be changed only in the Auto view page.
Configuring the parameter priority and
display
The location of a parameter in the window
determines not only where a parameter appears on
the screen but also how it is displayed. Parameters
are arranged in descending order in the window
and occupy the same position on the screen. For
example, the top parameter in the parameter
selection window occupies the top spot on the main
screen. For more information see, “Configuring
parameters for display“on page 448.
Parameter priority list
The priority list appears in the parameter selection
window of the Auto view page (see page 446).
Change the parameter priority by switching the
position of the parameters in the Auto view page.
For more information, see "To configure the
parameter priority and display from the Auto view
setup toolbar" on page 449.
The following list shows the default parameter
priority list. Pressures without assigned labels

Views
Each Cockpit supports eight pre-configured Dräger
views and, as an option, up to eight custom views.
Views control the content and appearance of the
screen.
To adjust the screen layout to the needs of the
current monitoring session, switch to a different
view.
Views can be shared among various profiles which
are pre-configured setups. This sharing of views
eliminates time-consuming setup tasks. Views can
be assigned to each profile (see page 488).

Profiles/status
Operating concept
Cockpits are adaptable to different care areas. This
adaptability is partially due to profiles which allow
clinical personnel to create unique setups for the
patient population of specific care areas.
Patient and default profiles
A patient profile consists of user-defined settings
which are customized for each patient category
(adult, pediatric, neonate). For example, a profile
may be unique to an adult patient population in a
high-acuity OR setting, while another caters to
neonatal patients in a low-acuity OR setting. A
profile remembers patient and device settings for
future use. With a profile, time-consuming setup
tasks that would otherwise have to be repeated for
each monitoring session are eliminated.
For each patient category, five unique profiles can
be set up and saved. Included in the five profiles is
a Dräger default profile that cannot be changed.
The Dräger default profile is activated when the
Cockpit is booted up for the first time, new software
is installed, or factory defaults are restored.
The user-defined patient default profile is activated
whenever a new patient category is selected. In
addition, the patient default profile is activated after
patient data are transferred physically or over the
network.
Profiles are divided into the following two
categories:
– Patient and default profiles
– System profiles (see page 82)
The selected patient profile remains unchanged
under the following circumstances:
– When the Cockpit is turned off and on again
– When a patient is discharged
– When a monitor transitions out of standby mode
– When a monitor transitions out of privacy mode
Whenever an M540 is docked in an IACS
configuration, the profile of the connected Cockpit
overwrites any M540 profile settings. The only
exceptions are the following profile settings which
remain unchanged on the M540:
–Cable type
– etCO2 Atm. pressure
– SpO2 alarm delay
– Patient category (adult, pediatric, neonatal)
– Demographic data
– Invasive blood pressure labels
– QRS detection threshold
– M540 offline detection
– M540 battery alarm
After a patient discharge, all patient data are
deleted and the most recently used profile is
restored.

Managing profiles and views
Each patient category (adult, pediatric, neonatal)
has its own unique profile. For example, if the
neonatal patient category is activated, only the
profiles defined for the neonatal patient category
are selectable. This is unlike views which can be
shared among all patient categories.
The following profile functions are available (for
detailed instructions, see "Profile setup" on
page 484):
– Selecting a profile
– Saving a profile (password-protected)
– Transferring a profile (password-protected)
– Deleting a profile
– Entering a profile name and description
– Assigning a profile to a default view (default
profiles are automatically activated after a
restart or a patient discharge).
Transferring profiles
Profiles can be transferred to other Cockpits in the
password-protected Profile transfer page. This
transfer eliminates time-consuming duplicate setup
tasks. Profiles can be transferred either over the
network or with a USB flash drive (see page 490).

Assembly overview
This chapter describes the following basic
assembly tasks:
– Docking/undocking the M540 from the M500
– Locking/unlocking the M540 into the M500
– Connecting/disconnecting the system cables
CAUTION
Avoid mounting solutions that could impede air
flow since the M500, PS250 / P2500 require adequate airflow to dissipate heat. In addition, when
mounting the PS250 / P2500, always position it
vertically for adequate heat dissipation.
IACS components are compatible with
commercially available mounting solutions.
Commercially available mounting
solutions
Various mounting solutions are available. It is the
responsibility of the hospital to install, test, and
ensure the proper and safe operation of any
mounting solution.
Contact your Dräger representative for specific
approved mounting solutions.
CAUTION
Check the weight ratings of the commercially
available mounts to avoid injuring the patient or
damaging the device.

Overview
This chapter describes the necessary steps to start
monitoring a patient on the IACS.
Turning the IACS on/off
Before monitoring a patient on the IACS, the
Cockpit and the M540 must be turned on. The
following steps assume that the M540 has been
docked in the M500 (for information see,
"Docking/undocking the M540" on page 93).
To turn the Cockpit on
Press the on/off key (B) of the Cockpit.
Specifically, this chapter describes how to:
– Turn the IACS on/off
– Admit/discharge a patient on the Cockpit
– Change the patient category
To turn the M540 on
Press the on/off key (C) of the M540.
The M540 emits a high-pitched tone followed by
two power-up tones, performs a selftest, and
displays the New patient prompt. Select
Discharge to delete the previous patient data
or Cancel to continue monitoring the patient
and append the new data to the previous data
set. The main screen appears.
