Getting Started
Unpacking the Monitor and Accessories
Before attempting to use the ProCare Monitor, take a few minutes to become acquainted with the Monitor and its accessories. Unpack the items carefully. This is also a good time to check for any damage or accessory shortage. If there is a problem or shortage, contact GE Medical Systems
Information Technologies.
It is recommended that all the packaging be retained, in case the Monitor must be returned for service in the future.
Setting up BP Connections
1.Connect the end of the air hose that has quick-release clips to the BP connector on the front of the Monitor. Make sure that the hose is not kinked or compressed.
Note: To disconnect the hose from the
Monitor, squeeze the quick-release clips together and pull the plug from the BP connector.
2.Select appropriate cuff size. Measure patient’s limb and select appropriately sized cuff according to size marked on cuff or cuff packaging. When cuff sizes overlap for a specified circumference, choose the larger size cuff.
Precaution: Accuracy depends on use of proper size cuff.
3.Inspect cuff for damage. Replace cuff when aging, tearing, or weak closure is apparent. Do not inflate cuff when unwrapped.
Precaution: Do not use cuff if damaged.
4.Connect the cuff to the air hose. Refer to the BP section for complete cuff connection instructions.
Warning: It is mandatory that the appropriate hose and cuff combination be used. Any attempt to modify the hose will inhibit the Monitor from switching between the neonatal and adult measurement modes.
Note: Care should be taken in reconnecting the cuff to a hose, ensuring that threads of the cuff and hose are in alignment and no cross-threading occurs.

Powering the Monitor: Battery and DC Supply
Prior to each use, inspect the power supply cord to ensure proper connection and condition.
Before the ProCare Monitor is used for the first time, the battery should be charged in the Monitor for at least 8 hours.

With external DC power connected, the green CHARGING indicator will light to indicate that the battery is charging.
When the Monitor is operating on battery power and the BATTERY LOW alarm is not active, the BATTERY indicator is backlit green. When the Monitor is operating on battery power and the BATTERY LOW alarm is active, the BATTERY indicator flashes green, the LOW indicator flashes amber, and the medium priority alarm sounds until it is acknowledged. Press the Silence button to acknowledge this alarm. Once it is acknowledged, the indicators continue to flash, but the audible alarm is silenced for 10 minutes. Once the BATTERY LOW condition becomes active, the Monitor should be connected to a DC power supply to recharge the battery (refer to “Power Requirements” in Product Overview section). If the Monitor continues to be used without charging the battery, the Monitor eventually enters a fail-safe mode (E13: BATTERY TOO LOW TO OPERATE). Refer to the Alarms Section for information of an E13 error code.
Battery charging will take place as long as the Monitor remains connected to an external DC power source.
Notes
•To prolong the life of the battery, keep the Monitor connected to a DC power supply
whenever possible. NEVER allow the battery to become
completely discharged. A fully charged battery will power the Monitor for approximately 5 hours. To ensure full charge cycles, replace only with a recommended battery. If the Monitor is to be stored for some time, first charge the battery and then remove it and store it separately from the Monitor.

Getting Started
Turning the Monitor On and Off
To turn the ProCare Monitor on, push the power On/Off button.
As the Monitor powers up, it will run a short self-test routine, which will flash all the indicator lights and then beep the warning speaker.
To turn the Monitor off, push the power On/Off button again. This will terminate any measurements that may be in progress and automatically deflate the cuff.
Note: Pressing and holding the On/Off button for 15 seconds will reset the CPU processor. After resetting the CPU processor, check all the unit configuration settings.
Configuration Mode Settings
Monitor settings such as HIGH/LOW alarm settings changed in the Clinical Mode will not be retained after the monitor is powered off. To retain alarm and parameter settings, the changes must be done in the configuration mode. Date/Time settings are also entered in the configuration mode.
To enter the configuration mode: with the Monitor off, press and hold the Menu button at the same time as pressing and holding the On/Off button for 3 seconds. The Monitor enters the configuration mode.
As the monitor turns on in the configuration mode, a brief display appears showing the software revision and the BP technology of the Monitor. These displays appear only during the first part of the power up sequence and are not selectable and cannot be changed.
