Navigating in menus

A menu is a list of functions or commands. To display a menu, press one of the hard keys. Selections in the menus are made with the ComWheel. For example, to change the ECG display:
•Press the ECG key to open the function menu.
• Turn the ComWheel to select the desired function in the menu.
• Push the ComWheel to open a submenu or an adjustment
window.

Using modes

The B30 monitor has six user modes. These user modes are predefined combinations of settings. They determine, for example, what is displayed on the screen and in trends and what the alarm limits are. In other words, by choosing a specific mode you get suitable settings on the screen without having to choose all features one by one.
Modes can be hospital specific. The monitor starts in start-up mode, which is one of the user modes chosen during configuration. The default modes are STEP-DOWN, ED, PACU, CCU, NEURO and PEDIATRIC. For more information about the default user modes, see the "Default Configuration Worksheet" delivered with the monitor.
For more information about the installation settings and user modes, see the "User's Reference Manual."
