How to Access the Product Functions

The self-test measures the ac mains input for correct
polarity, ground integrity and voltage level. The high
voltage indicator illuminates briefly during the self test. If
the polarity is reversed, the Product shows this condition
and sets the polarity to be reversed internally. If the
ground is open, the Product shows this fault. If the mains
voltage is too high or too low, the Product shows this fault
and does not continue until the supply voltage is
corrected and the Product power turned off and then on
again.

How to Access the Product Functions

For each test and setup function, the Product uses a
series of menus to access different Product tests and
setup variables. The example shown in Figure , the
Product shows different leakage current tests along the
bottom of the display. A More softkey lets you access
more menus related to the test. When you push a softkey
(F1 through F4) below a test name, the Product sets up
for or does the selected test.

For some tests, it will be necessary to set parameters
with the navigation buttons. In the example above, the
leakage parameter has  next to it. This icon shows you
must push  or  to set its value. In this example, the
leakage current measurement changes between AC+DC,
AC only, or DC only. The applied parts indicator has  on
the left end and  on the right end. These icons show that
you must push  and  to set an applied part.

How to Use the 1-to-10 Adapter

How to Use the 1-to-10 Adapter

The 1-to-10 Adapter, an optional accessory, increases the
number of lead or applied parts connections to the Product
from 5 to 14. The adapter connects a maximum of 10
leads together into a one lead that is connected to one of
the input jacks of the Product. The other four Product input
jacks can also be used in conjunction with the Adapter.
More leads can be added with multiple 1-to-10 Adapters.

The example in Figure shows one application of the
Adapter. The Defibrillator/Monitor in the example has 10
ECG leads, two pacer leads, and two defibrillator paddles
which must be connected together, and in groups if single
function, for current leakage per IEC62353. The example
shows the ECG leads to be snap type connectors and two
BJ2ECG adapters are shown connected to the Adapter. If
the ECG leads do not have snap connectors, then the
Universal Snap to Banana Adapter can be used to make
the connections to the Adapter.

The common lead from the Adapter is plugged into the RA
