2.0 OPERATING CONTROLS AND MODES

2.1ADJUSTABLE CONTROLS

2.1.1AIRWAY TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Selects the airway controlling temperature.

The

range

of adjustment

is from

29 to

40

°C

over a linear

scale

marked in

degrees

on

the

front

panel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

temperature

can be

set

with

a resolution

of

0.1

°C.

The

set

temperature

is flashed

on

the display

when

the control

knob

is rotated and

continues

to be

flashed

for

five

seconds

after

the

last adjustment.

2.1.2

CHAMBER

CONTROL

(HEATER

WIRE

ON

 

MODE

ONLY)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

temperature of

the gas

leaving

the

chamber

is

regulated

by

the

Chamber

Control

knob,

it sets

the

 

 

difference between the chamber outlet

temperature

and

the

airway

temperature delivered

to

the patient.

 

The

setting

of the

Chamber

Control, when

added

to

the

setting

of

the

Temperature Control,

determines

 

the

chamber

outlet

set

temperature.

This

Chamber

Control

has

a linear

range

of

adjustment

from

-5

to

 

+2 °C marked in one degree steps and

can

be

set

with a

resolution

of 0.5

°C.

The

value is

flashed

on

the

 

Airway display as the control knob is

rotated

and

 

continues

to

be flashed

for

five

seconds

after the

last

 

adjustment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Every humidifier is also supplied with

a

fixed

chamber

control

knob.

This prevents

inadvertent

 

 

 

adjustment of the chamber control by

preadjusting the existing knob to the desired setting and then

 

 

 

replacing

the

normal

knob

with

the

fixed

knob.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.2PUSH SWITCHES

2.2.1MUTE BUTTON

A momentary push will disable an audible alarm for 3 minutes (except low temperature alarm in non

heater wire mode which is ten minutes).

A secondary function is that in conjunction with the Chamber Temp switch enables entry to the engineering menu (refer Appendix A2).

On every initial push of the mute button a momentary audio beep indicates function operation.

2.2.2CHAMBER TEMP BUTTON

For MR700

Series Humidifiers

with

Version

1.0

Software:

 

 

 

 

 

Operation of this switch causes the airway temperature display to

momentarily

(refer

Appendix

A2).

For MR700 Series Humidifiers with Version 2.0 and Version 3.0 Software:

Operation of this switch causes the airway temperature display to momentarily blank then show the

chamber

outlet

temperature. A green LED

adjacent

to the switch

is

enabled to

indicate that this

function

is active.

On release of this switch the

display continues te

show

the

chamber

outlet

temperature for 2

seconds

before

blanking momentarily

and

reverting

to show

the

airway

temperature.

 

 

This button is

used in conjunction with

the

mute to

enter the

engineering

menu

(refer

Appendix

A2).

2.2.3STANDBY BUTTON (MR700/720/730 ONLY)

This button

has to be depressed for one

second

to

enter

or

exit

the

standby

mode.

When

the

adjacent

amber

to maintain

the

desired

temperature and

within

close

limits

with

a minimum

of

condensation. To minimise rainout or maximise humidification, the chamber outlet temperature can be adjusted to control at a fixed offset from the set airway temperature. The front panel Chamber Control

knob is used for this purpose, see 2.1.2 above.

2.5 MR730/720 IN HEATER WIRE OFF MODE AND MR480

In the non Heater Wire mode

of the

MR730/720

(heater

wire

switch

the

delivery

 

temperature

is

maintained

by

heater

plate

control

only.

The

sensor

at

the delivery

hose

end controls the

heater

plate

to

deliver

the

selected temperature.

The sensor

at

the

chamber

outlet

is

employed in

a

backup

safety

mode,

to limit

the chamber

outlet

temperature

to

a maximum

of

66

°C.

In this way

safety

at low flow rates (below 5 L/minute) is enhanced at the sacrifice of some low flow performance.

is off).

In this case the Heater

Wire

alarm

LED will be

flashing,

the audio alarm

begins

and the

heater

plate

is

switched off.

 

 

 

 

 

3.3.2AIRWAY TEMPERATURE HIGH ALARM

The red Airway

Temp

High LED

will flash and

an

audible alarm will

sound if the

gas

temperature being

delivered to the

patient

is 41°C or

higher. Power

to

the heater plate is

immediately

shut

off.

3.3.3AIRWAY TEMPERATURE LOW ALARM

The red Airway Temp Low LED will flash and an audible alarm will sound if the gas temperature being delivered to the patient is 29.5 °C or less.

Notes:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

audio

alarm

is not enabled for 30

seconds

after the low temperature

LED

begins flashing.

Pushing the mute

button

disables

the

audio

alarm and restores power to

the

heater plate for ten minutes,

the

Airway

This alarm is disabled during warm-up, see section 2.6.2.

3.4AUDIO ALARM

A choice of

the ISO draft standard

audio alarm or a gliding tone can be selected by the programming

control link

(L1), refer Appendix

A3.

A momentary depression of the mute button will silence the audio alarm for about 3 minutes (except for a low temperature alarm in no heater wire mode, see 3.3.3. The relevant LED indicators remain flashing

until the alarm condition clears. Any new alarm condition occurring within a mute delay will cause the audio alarm to be re-enabled.

3.5SAFETY PROTECTION (ALL MODELS)

3.5.1TEMPERATURE DEVIATIONS

‘An

over

temperature

alarm condition

causes

an immediate shut down of both

heater

circuits. In the

case

of

a Low

Temperature

alarm, pressing

Mute

causes heating to recommence,

the Low

Temperature

LED

however remains on until the fault has cleared.

There are two independent backup over temperature protection circuits.

Firstly, an over temperature protection circuit independent of the microprocessor control continuously

monitors

the

airway

thermistor sensor.

This

backup

protection

is

preset

to

disconnect

the

heating

circuits

at 41.0 degrees.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Secondly,

a

bimetallic

thermostat

fixed to the heater plate

operates

if the

heater plate

temperature

 

exceeds

118

°C + 6

°C

and opens

the

mains

active

supply.

On

cooling,

this

protector

can

only be

reset

by gaining access to the under surface of the heater plate and manually depressing the red reset button.

Heater plate temperature is limited to 110 °C max during normal operation (80 °C for MR720). Optional heater plate limits of 50, 80 and 90 °C can be selected. (Refer Appendix A3.)

3.5.2 MICROPROCESSOR WATCH DOG

A control loop in the operating software continuously monitors for correct operation. Should a fault be detected a hardware reset circuit attempts to re-initialise the microprocessor. If this is not successful

additional hardware disables the heating circuit, blanks the display and turns the Humidifier Fault red LED on.

The watch dog circuit is tested at turn on by deliberately halting the processor and forcing initialisation.

4.0CIRCUIT OPERATION

41

INTRODUCTION

 

This section

describes briefly the operation of each of the circuit sections. Refer to the circuit diagrams

 

in Sections

8.6 to 8.8.

4.2CONTROL BOARD

The one basic control board, with various discreet hardware changes, provides the controlling functions for the MR730/720/700/480 range of humidifiers. Each model however is controlled by a unique software version.

4.21CONTROL THERMISTORS

Three

standard characteristic

thermistors control all temperature functions. Two thermistors

are used in a

dual

temperature

probe sensor,

another

thermistor

monitors the heater

plate temperature.

 

1. . A thermistor

is mounted

in

a probe

at

the end

of the

delivery

hose

to

measure

delivered

airway

temperature

(connector

J4-1,3). This

temperature is

indicated

by

the

digital

display on

the

humidifier front panel.

2.A second thermistor mounted in a probe measures the chamber temperature at the top of the

 

 

humidifying

 

chamber

(connector

J4-2,3).

In

heater wire mode

this

thermistor

is used to

monitor

and

 

 

control

the

chamber

outlet temperature.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

A

third

thermistor

is permanently

mounted

in

intimate

contact

with

the heater

plate (HP)

(connector

 

 

J3-1,3). This

prevents excessive heater

plate

temperatures

during

a warm up cycle.

 

 

 

4.2.2

US

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

switch

(U8)

selects under processor control (PB0-3)

various

input signals

and

 

 

 

reference

potentials.

Selected

From

(U9) under processor control (PB4-6) the airway

temperature

and

the

 

 

chamber

temperatures

from

the

temperature

sensor

are also

read.

 

 

 

 

4.2.3 ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER U10 B,D,E

The temperature probe inputs are filtered by the C30, C31, R28, R26, C19, C20 network for EMI

 

suppression.

 

The

selected

 

output

of the analog switch network U8, U9

is

fed

to

pin

10 of U10d, a

low

pass operational amplifier with a

gain

of

11.

This

stage

is filtered with

C23

to give protection from any

voltage transients appearing at its

input.

The

integrating

stage

U10b

rests

for most

of the time (50-60ms)

with R35 connected (through an

analog

switch in U9) across the

integrating

capacitor C22 holding it ina

discharged

state.

With VR5

and

R34

connected to the non-inverting

input

of U10b

the stage

has a

‘static’

gain

of about

0.5 giving a

resting

level of about -2.5 to

-3 volts

at the

output

pin

1.

 

 

 

Under processor control (PB6) when the switch section

of U9 across C22 is

opened the output of U10b

ramps up (0.1-5ms).

This

rising

ramp voltage is fed via

R36

to

the comparator

stage U10e where it is

referenced

via

R41

to

the

output

voltage

level

of

U10d.

When the ramp voltage exceeds the threshold

level

of UI0d

the

output

of

the comparator stage

U10e

switches

high.

 

This

fast

rising edge,

assisted by

the speed up capacitor C24, is fed to the RST 6.5 interrupt input of U3.

4.2.4PROCESSOR CONTROL U3

After selecting one

of the

10

input signals

through

the

switch network of U8, U9 there is a 50-60ms

 

pause to allow U10d to settle.

At

this

point

the

switch

across the integrator U10b is

opened

initiating

a

linear ramp

output

and the

14

bit

counter

in

U4

is

started.

Within a time period of 100ns to Sms the

ramp

will cause

a RST6.5

interrupt

to

occur.

The

processor

on

responding to the interrupt,

first

stops

the counter, then closes the

switch across the integrator readying

it

for the

next

cycle.

The

input

switch

network U8, U9 can now be

stepped

to

the

next

input.

The

14 bit

counter

can

now

be

read

and

its value

equated to the input signal.

In

this way

all

10 input channels

are

continuously

scanned.

VRS is

set

during calibration to give the

desired

ramp

rate.

Thus

all points

are scanned once

every 500-600ms, self

calibration performed, and the digital display updated.

4.2.5 POWER LINE INTERRUPT (REVISIONS D/F PCBs)

A sample of the power supply frequency is derived from the power transformer 22Vac secondary via

R56 and

O1, buffered by Schmitt trigger

USf and fed

to

the RST7.5

interrupt

of U3. The

operating

software

determines the supply

frequency

facilitating

the

generation

of

a real

time clock

and also

enabling

a zero crossing detector for triac

switching.

The ADC is also

phase

synchronised with the line

frequency

thus eliminating any

common

error from this

source.

4.2.741 °C COMPARATOR

Operational

amplifier

U10c

is

a protection

circuit

to sense

excessive delivery

temperature

rise.

The

non

inverting

input

pin

5

is

connected directly (via connector

J4-1) to the patient

airway

thermistor.

The

 

inverting

input

goes to an adjustable divider network R32,

VR4,

R33.

VRA

is

set

during

calibration

to

ensure

that

the

output

pin

7

of

U10c

is

low

above

an input

temperature

of 41

°C.

This low

output

 

(OVHT)

is

fed

via the isolating diode resistor networks D19, R55

and

D20,

R61 to clamp the bases of

switching

transistors

Q10

and

Q12.

In

this

way,

a patient

airway

temperature

greater

than

41°C

causes

both heaters

to

be

shut

down.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A watch

dog failure,

which

is

a high

output

from

USg,

is

communicated via

isolating

diode

D11

and

 

resistor

R31

to

the inverting input of U10c.

This

also

ensures that both

heater

control

circuits are

 

clamped

off

in

the

event

of

a processor

crash.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.2.8HEATER PLATE OVERTEMPERATURE

Thermistor HP senses the heater plate temperature.

Should

the

heater plate exceed the maximum heater

plate limit (default 110 °C) during normal operation,

power

to

the heater plate is discontinued until it

cools below

this

limiting

temperature.

Under

certain

operating conditions, for increased safety, lower

maximum

heater

plate temperatures

can

be selected.

 

(See Appendix

A3:

Programming

Control

Options.)

Also mounted

on

the heater plate is a mechanical

118

°C cut out which will give protection should the

electronic

4.2.9WATCH DOG

During

operation

the

processor

is

continually

monitored

for

correct

function.

 

This

is done

by

changing

the

state

of

output

port

PB7

of

U4

 

every

16.6

or

20ms (power

line frequency

interrupt).

This

square

 

wave,

buffered

by

USb,

is fed

to

the

charge

pump

circuitry

C16,

D4,

DS

and

C15

which

ensures

that

pin

13

of USg

is

held

hard

up.

Should

this

square

wave

be interrupted for any reason,

C15 will

discharge

through R3 giving a high output

from

pin

12,

which

drives

the trap interrupt input

of U3.

This

high

trap

input forces re-initialisation of the processor which

 

may

or

may

not

be

successful

depending

on

the

 

nature

of

the

fault.

The

purpose

of

this

is

to

ensure

 

that

if

the

processor

should

fail, and

is

unable to

re-

initialise,

it

fails

in a

safe mode.

The

watch

dog

circuit

is

tested

every time the

humidifier

is

tumed

on by

deliberately

halting

program

execution

and

waiting

for initialisation via the watch

dog.

To

indicate

that

the

processor

has

failed

the

high

output

of

U5g

also

turns

on

5.0CALIBRATION

5.1INTRODUCTION

Calibration should be performed after any servicing involving the printed circuit boards. After

calibration, perform a performance check as

outlined

in

section 6.0.

 

 

 

 

Note:

For

instructions

on

disassembly

of

the

unit, refer to Section 7.0

Servicing

Information.

 

Calibration is facilitated by entering a special

Calibration

mode.

See

Appendix

VR5,

the 41

°C

comparator

stage and

the

setting of

the span of

the A to D converter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This calibration procedure may be carried out

if the

unit

is thought to

be out of calibration (E0x-E7x

error

messages

in the

display) or

if any

of the

circuit

boards

have

been

replaced

or repaired.

In particular

any repair

that

may

have

altered

the

potential

of

the

+5

or -5

volt

rails

or component

change

associated

with

the A

to D

converter

would

require

a calibration

check.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Calibration should be checked and performed after the unit has been running for at least half an hour; ie calibration performed after the unit has warmed up.

6.0PERFORMANCE CHECK

6.1INTRODUCTION

This procedure may be used to check the operation and calibration of the MR730/720/700/480

humidifiers without dismantling the unit. This performance check should be performed

after any

 

servicing

involving

the printed

circuit

boards,

and

annually

as

part of the routine

maintenance

procedure

(see

Appendix

B).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Performance

can

be

monitored

during

the

test

by

using

the

functions

of the

Engineering

Menu.

 

See

Appendix

A2.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

Performance

test

consists of two main parts, the Static Test and the Dynamic

Test.

 

 

 

 

For the Static Test, the

humidifier is first run with fixed inputs to check for

correct heater

plate

control.

Initially the heater plate will get

warm,

but should

be relatively cold

at the

end

of

the

first

part

of

this

test.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

second

part

of

the

Static Test checks the over temperature protection.

At

the

end

of

this test

the

heater

plate

will

be

at

maximum

temperature.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For

the

Dynamic

Test,

the

humidifier

with

a chamber

is fitted

with a

Heater

Wire

delivery

tube

assembly

and

a probe

assembly.

The

delivery tube

should be supported

from

above

so

that

it drops

vertically over

its entire

length

to the

top of the

chamber.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While testing the Heated Wire models, the chamber does not require to be filled with water or have a gas

supply but the chamber inlet must be unobstructed. The purpose of this set-up is to establish an air flow through the chamber and up the delivery tube by convection.

The MR730/720 is to be tested in the Heater Wire on mode (green LED on). The non Heated Wire model MR480 is tested slightly differently. See section 6.4.

6.2PERFORMANCE CHECK MR730/720/700

Ensure

the MR730/720/700 model has a

suitable Heater Wire module connected.

See section 6.4 for testing of MR480.
