ASSEMBLY, INTERCONNECTIONS AND INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS

Should valve

dislodge

, use blunt end of a small diameter object to gently push wedged section(s) of leaf valve inward so it

pulled. Visually verify leaf valve lays flu

sh against inner wall curvature of gas outlet connector.

ASSEMBLY:

Model 754 - No assembly is required before placing this device into operation. Model 754M - Depending upon contract requirements, battery pack installation may be necessary. Please check

your contract accordingly. If battery pack installation is required, see BATTERY CARE AND RECHARGING section for instructions.

INTERCONNECTIONS:

CAUTION: Follow interconnection instructions prior to placing this device into service (see Figure 2).

1. For use with external oxygen: connect high pressure oxygen hose between OXYGEN inlet port and a 50-PSI external oxygen source. Use only medical-grade oxygen (see Figures 5a and 5b).

2. For use with external air: connect high pressure air hose between AIR inlet port and a 50-PSI external air source. Use only medical-grade compressed air (see Figures 5a and 5b).

3. Connect disposable ventilator circuit to its respective gas outlet, transducer, and exhalation valve connectors on Model 754/754M Connector Panel. Observe directions included with disposable ventilator circuit (see Figure 4).

The gas outlet contains a leaf valve mounted flush to its inside – it has two purposes. First, should a spontaneously breathing patient require supplemental flow or the ventilator is not triggering in response to the patient’s breathing effort, the leaf valve opens allowing entrainment of ambient air (acting as an antiasphyxia valve). Second, should the gas outlet port or the ventilator circuit become blocked, the leaf valve wedges itself into the large holes it normally blocks (acting as a protective blow-out valve) to protect the patient and ventilator from excessively high pressures. Never block (or occlude) the gas outlet port or connected ventilator circuit when the ventilator is operating. Prior to operation, verify that the leaf valve is properly seated otherwise re-seat before patient use.

Location of Leaf Valve inside Adapter Leaf Valve in position

dislodges from peripheral hole(s) and re- seats itself against inner wall of gas outlet connector. Visually verify leaf valve lays flush against inner wall curvature of gas outlet connector.

Should valve detach from gas outlet connector, gently grab leaf valve “tail” with tweezers. Insert “tail” from inside of gas outlet connector through its small hole. Grab “tail” as it passes through small hole. Pull gently on “tail” until you feel it lock into position. Leaf valve and mating hole have interlocking shoulders causing valve to become locked in place when initially

SECTION I. OPERATION

INTRODUCTION

User's will find this instrument quite easy-to-learn and operate. The following text presents a brief overview of device features. A complete understanding of its capabilities and limitations will allow you to take advantage of its many features.

Your Model 754/754M is a portable, electronically controlled ventilator, compressor, air/oxygen mixer. It is controlled by an internal microprocessor (CPU) which continuously monitors and displays airway pressure, control settings, alarm parameters, gas source(s), gas flow s, gas blends, and power signals. ACV, SIMV and CPAP modes are operable with or without PEEP, with or without SIGH. ACV and SIMV are operable with or without Pressure Plateau. All modes are PEEP and altitude compensable to minimize your patient's work -of- breathing and automatic ventilatory backup assures continued mechanical support if the patient becomes apneic. An adjustable pressure limit control limits peak inspiratory pressures and high pressure alarm setpoint.

The Model 754/754M can provide gas mixtures with oxygen content ranging from 21 to 100%. Gases may be blended from external oxygen (compressed gas cylinder or PTLOX) and internal compressor, or external oxygen and external compressed air. External compressed air, delivered from an electric compressor, must be oil-less and filtered. Acceptable input gas pressures may range up to 80 -PSI without effecting measurement accuracy or danger to internal componentry. It is operable in any position; upright, on its side, or lying flat.

Uni-Vent is operable from internal, rechargeable batteries; 11-15 volts DC (negative ground). Its battery pack may be recharged within the range of either of the aforementioned DC voltages. A Universal AC Power Supply and 12 VDC Power Cable is provided. The Universal AC Power Supply connects directly to AC mains providing 90 to 265 volts, 47 to 440 Hz. An optional Universal AC Power Supply (standard with the Model 754M) connects directly to AC mains providing 115/230 volts, 50 to 400 Hz (voltage and line frequency sensing is automatic), and permits use from external DC voltages, ranging from 16 to 30 volts which connect to the secondary input leads provided. Attachment to a mating connector is required and polarity must be observed. The black input lead is positive, the white is negative. Do not attach the braided shield. The Model 754/754M does not consume gas for operating power - all gas is dedicated for patient care.

Your ventilatory system employs a comprehensive alarm system. Alarms are categorized as Operating, Nonoperating, or Advisory (see section entitled ALARM FUNCTIONS for complete descriptions of each alarm).

The Model 754/754M is extremely durable and designed for all environments. Its case is injection molded from polycarbonate mater ial. It is appropriate for use with adults, children and infants - in clinical, field hospital, aeromedical, homecare, and prehospital (ALS, ATLS, ACLS) settings. Its small size and weight facilitates transport, deployment and storage.

FEATURES

• Microprocessor control of all functions including automatic monitoring of internal battery and external

power sources, internal compressor and external gases.

• Extensive alarm monitoring of operating, non-operating and advisory conditions.

• Contemporary design to facilitate transport and placement.

• Gas-efficient electronic control circuitry eliminates all pneumatic-logic circuits, and any dependency

on gas for operating power.

• Rechargeable batteries, fully compatible with vehicular electrical systems and airbor ne environments.

• Self-contained system, may be operated without attachment of external gas(es).

manually select external compressed air as your primary air source. When the ventilator is turned ON, its CPU "samples" the respective gas fitting and looks for an air pressure, greater than 40-PSI. If a lower pressure, or no pressure is sensed, the LCD will display "OFF" (default value), and the CPU allows operation from the internal compressor. If a pressure exceeding 40-PSI (+/- 2-PSI) is sensed, the LCD will display "ON", and allow operation from the external air supply. Manually pressing this pushbutton will toggle the display from "OFF" to "ON", or from "ON" to "OFF". Attempting to select "ON" with less than 35-PSI (+/- 2-PSI) present will cause an alarm to sound. The LCD display area for EXTERNAL AIR is on the top line, immediately below its respective pushbutton switch. The EXTERNAL AIR OFF/ON display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

SIGH OFF/ON Pushbutton Switch: The SIGH OFF/ON Pushbutton Switch permits Uni-Vent to operate with or without SIGH. When activated, the first ventilator generated breath will be a SIGH. Additional SIGH ventilations are delivered once every 100 ventilations or 7-minutes, whichever occurs first. Each SIGH ventilation equals 150% of the INSPIRATION TIME setting (and exhalation period), which increases delivered volume by 50%. Proportionately increasing both the inspiration and exhalation time allows Uni-Vent to maintain I:E during SIGH. As a safety precaution, Uni -Vent does not allow the inspiratory portion of a SIGH breath to exceed 3seconds. Manually pressing this pushbutton will toggle the display from "OFF" to "ON", or from "ON" to "OFF". "OFF" is its default value. SIGH becomes disabled ("OFF") in the CPAP mode, or when PRESSURE PLATEAU is selected ("ON"). The LCD display area for SIGH is on the top line, immediately below its respective pushbutton switch. The SIGH OFF/ON display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

PEEP OFF/ON-SET Pushbutton Switch: The PEEP OFF/ON-SET Pushbutton Switch activates Uni-Vent's internal PEEP control. When the ventilator is turned ON, PEEP has a default value of 0 cmH2O (no PEEP). Pressing the pushbutton allows a PEEP value to be manually entered (see section entitled USING POSITIVE END EXPIRATORY PRESSURE). The LCD display area for PEEP is on the top line, immediately below its respective pushbutton switch. The PEEP OFF/ON-SET display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

PRESSURE PLATEAU OFF/ON Pushbutton Switch: The PRESSURE PLATEAU OFF/ON Pushbutton Switch permits ACV or SIMV operation with a pressure plateau. When the ventilator is turned ON, PLATEAU is OFF (default value). Pressing this pushbutton activates a PLATEAU value that is referenced 10 cmH2O below the HIGH PRESSURE ALARM/PEAK INSPIRATORY PRESSURE RELIEF Control setpoint. Its absolute range is 5 to 90 cmH2O. When this pushbutton is pressed, it will toggle the display from "OFF" to its PLATEAU value, or from its PLATEAU value to "OFF". PRESSURE PLATEAU becomes disabled ("OFF") in the CPAP mode. The LCD display area for PRESSURE PLATEAU is on the top line, immediately below its respective pushbutton switch (see section entitled USING PRESSURE PLATEAU). The PRESSURE PLATEAU OFF/ON display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

HIGH PRESSURE ALARM/PEAK INSPIRATORY PRESSURE RELIEF Control: This control is used to select the HIGH PRESSURE ALARM and PEAK INSPIRATORY PRESSURE RELIEF setpoint. It has an absolute range from 15 to 100 cmH2O. When the ventilator is turned ON, the HIGH PRESSURE ALARM/PEAK INSPIRATORY PRESSURE RELIEF Control setpoint value equals its current position. The LCD display area for HIGH PRESSURE ALARM/PEAK INSPIRATORY PRESSURE RELIEF Control setpoint is on the top line, immediately below its respective control. The HIGH PRESSURE ALARM Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

LOW PRESSURE ALARM Control: This control is used to select the LOW PRESSURE ALARM setpoint. It has an absolute range from 0 to 50 cmH2O. When the ventilator is turned ON, the LOW PRESSURE ALARM Control setpoint value equals its current position. The LCD display area for the LOW PRESSURE ALARM Control setpoint is on the top line, immediately below its respective control. The LOW PRESSURE ALARM Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

CONTROLS, (cont'd)

VENTILATION RATE Control: The VENTILATION RATE control setting determines the mechanical

ventilation rate for ACV and SIMV operation. It is not operable in CPAP (RATE = 0). Its range is from 1 to 150 breaths per minute (BPM). When the ventilator is turned ON, the VENTILATION RATE Control setpoint value equals its current position. The LCD display area for VENTILATION RATE Control setpoint is on the bottom line, immediately above its respective control. During APNEA, the RATE Control setting and its LCD display will change to 12 BPM. The VENTILATION RATE Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs, or the CPAP mode is selected.

INSPIRATION TIME/I:E RATIO Control: The INSPIRATION TIME/I;E RATIO Control sets the inspiratory duration of all ventilator -delivered breaths. It is adjustable in 0.1 second increments from 0.1 to 3.0 seconds maximum. Its usable range is limited by the VENTILATION RATE Control setting. Inverse I:E Ratio's (inspiratory time is greater than expiratory time) are not permitted. (See section entitled ALARM FUNCTIONS). A default I:E ratio of 1:2 is activated when this control is turned to its fully counterclockwise position. When the ventilator is turned ON, the INSPIRATION TIME/I:E RATIO Control setpoint value equals its current position. Setting INSPIRATION TIME causes the resulting I:E RATIO to be calculated. Setting the default I:E RATIO (1:2) causes the INSPIRATION TIME to be calculated when VENTILATION RATE settings are changed. Inspiration time and I:E ratio are simultaneously displayed in the LCD. The LCD display area for INSPIRATION TIME/I:E RATIO Control setpoint is on the bottom line, immediately above its respective control. The INSPIRATION TIME/I:E RATIO Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs or CPAP is selected. It will blink during INVERSE I:E conditions.

TIDAL VOLUME Control : The TIDAL VOLUME Control allows gas to be delivered over a wide range. Its maximum flow is equivalent to approximately 1000ml/sec (60 LPM). TIDAL VOLUME may be obtained from any of the following gas or gas combinations:

External Air (Cylinder)

External Compressed Air (Compressor)

Internal Air Compressor

External Oxygen and External Air Cylinder or Compressor, or Internal Air Compressor

External Oxygen

Tidal volume is calculated and displayed in milliliters (ml). When the ventilator is turned ON, the TIDAL VOLUME Control setpoint value equals its current position. Uni-Vent's CPU monitors and adjusts gas flow. Its

LCD initially displays "#### set" TIDAL VOLUME for the first one or two delivered breaths, while the CPU makes whatever flow corrections are required, then the LCD alternately displays "#### set" TIDAL VOLUME and "#### del" TIDAL VOLUME. The LCD display area for TIDAL VOLUME Control setpoint is on the bottom line, immediately above its respective control. The TIDAL VOLUME Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs or CPAP is selected.

AIR/OXYGEN MIXER Control: The AIR/OXYGEN MIXER Control allows air, oxygen, or mixtures of air and oxygen to be delivered. It has a range of 21% (all air) to 100% (all oxygen) and may be obtained from the following gas or gas combinations:

21% FIO2 from External Air (Cylinder)

21% FIO2 from External Compressed Air (Compressor)

21% FIO2 from Internal Air Compressor

21 to 100% FIO2 from External Oxygen and External Air Cylinder or Compressor

21 to 100% FIO2 from External Oxygen and Internal Air Compressor

100% FIO2 from External Oxygen

1 - 4

CONTROLS, (cont'd)

When the ventilator is turned ON, the AIR/OXYGEN MIXER Control setpoint value equals its current position. Uni-Vent's CPU monitors and adjusts gas flow according to the FIO2 and TIDAL VOLUME setpoints. In CPAP

mode, FIO2 proportions are based on gas flowing at 1000ml/sec. The CPU makes any necessary flow corrections during the first one or two delivered breaths. Delivered FIO2 is displayed in the LCD. The LCD display area for AIR/OXYGEN MIXER Control setpoint is on the bottom line, immediately above its respective control. The AIR/OXYGEN MIXER Control setting display will blank when a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs. It will blink when an EXT AIR LOW/FAIL, O2 LOW/FAIL, or FIO2 Alarm occurs.

ALARM MUTE/CANCEL Pushbutton Switch: Depending upon alarm category, the ALARM MUTE/CANCEL Pushbutton Switch can either mute an audible alarm signal, or cancel a particul ar alarm function.

Muting: Depressing this switch mutes the audible component of an Operating Alarm condition for a predetermined period (see ALARM FUNCTIONS). Alarm muting is reset when the current alarm condition no longer applies or the predetermined mute-period is reached (audible alarm will resound). A new alarm condition overrides a "muted" pre-existing alarm.

When an alarm causing condition occurs, the LCD ALARM MESSAGE CENTER will display the pertinent alarm message. The ALARM LED alternately flashes, at the same frequency as the accompanying audible alarm. Pressing the ALARM MUTE/CANCEL Pushbutton Switch causes the ALARM LED to stay on continuously. It will resume flashing when the mute period ends.

If a new alarm condition occurs dur ing the mute period of a previous alarm, the new alarm will have no effect upon the display of that alarm. The new alarm will cause the ALARM LED to alternately flash and respond as previously described when the ALARM MUTE/CANCEL Pushbutton Switch is pressed.

Canceling: When depressed, the ALARM MUTE/CANCEL Pushbutton Switch cancels the audible component of an Advisory Alarm condition (see ALARM FUNCTIONS). During an APNEA alarm condition, it will cancel both the audible and visual APNEA alarms and the controlled ventilations that are automatically invoked at the onset of apnea. Cancellation of an APNEA alarm allows Uni -Vent to resume operation at the preset ACV, SIMV or CPAP settings.

MANUAL BREATH/TRIGGER Pushbutton Switch: The MANUAL BREATH/TRI GGER Pushbutton is operable two ways.

Pressing this control during normal CPU operation, delivers one MANUAL BREATH. Each MANUAL BREATH is equal to one complete ventilatory cycle consisting of the current INSPIRATORY TIME/TIDAL VOLUME settings and expiratory period. In the CPAP mode, a manual breath is delivered at a flow rate of 30 LPM, an inspiratory time of 1.67 -seconds, and pressure limited at 40 cmH2O. A MANUAL BREATH cannot be delivered until airway pressure has reached baseline (zero or PEEP). Each time a MANUAL BREATH is triggered, an audible beep is heard.

This control functions as a MANUAL TRIGGER backup, if a CPU failure occurs in the primary system. The MANUAL TRIGGER contains dedicated circuitry capable of providing manually triggered breaths. For as long as this pushbutton is depressed, the MANUAL TRIGGER delivers a continuous gas flow at 30 liters per minute (LPM). A pressure relieving mechanism, contained within this circuit, limits peak inspiratory pressure from exceeding 40 cmH2O.

The MANUAL BREATH/TRIGGER Pushbutton is protected against accidental contact by a circular guard. MODE Selector Switch (OFF-A/C-SIMV-CPAP-CAL): The MODE SELECTOR Switch provides operating

power in the ACV, SIMV, CPAP, and CAL positions. Turning the MODE SELECTOR Switch from OFF to A/C, SIMV, or CPAP causes the microprocessor to perform

a "SELF-CHECK" (see section entitled SELF-CHECK) before initiating operating in the selected mode. Ventilator operation will not begin until "SELF-CHECK" is successfully completed. Calibration of the airway pressure transducer is permitted in the CAL position only (see section entitled TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION).

OPERATING POWER SELECTION & STOPPING

Uni-Vent is designed to operate from various voltages and frequencies (see SPECIFICATIONS). Its Universal AC Power Supply automatically accepts input voltages from 90 to 265 volts AC, 47 to 440 Hz.

DC operating voltages, within the range of 11 to 15 volts (negative ground), may be connected directly to the EXTERNAL POWER JACK. A 12 VDC Power Cable is provided for operation from a vehicular source or external 12-volt battery.

An optional Universal AC Power Supply (standard with the Model 754M), is operable from nominal 115/230 VAC, 50 to 400 Hz (voltage and line frequency sensing is automatic), and permits use from external DC voltages, ranging from 16 to 30 volts. The input leads provided require a mating connector and polarity must be observed. The black input lead is positive, white is negative. Do not attach the braided shield.

The MODE Selector Switch acts as a master power switch. Use this switch to initiate or cease operation. Uni-Vent is designed to give operating power priority to external power rather than its internal battery pack.

When a live external power source is applied, internal batteries are automatically placed on charge. When an external power failure occurs, Uni-Vent automatically switches to its internal battery pack for operating power and activates the EXTERNAL POWER FAILURE Alarm. When external power reappears, operation will switch from internal power to the external source.

Two external fuseholders are located adjacent to the battery compartment door. Each fuseholder contains a type 5 X 20mm, 10A fuse. The fuse closest to the top cover effects external power operation and battery charging. The other fuse effects battery operation and charging. POWER INFORMATION CENTER messages for "EXT PWR" and battery icon "ON CHG" will not display if their respective fuse(s) is/are blown or missing. See DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS, VISUAL INDICATORS AND CONNECTIONS - POWER INFORMATION CENTER, for additional information.

SELF-CHECK

Uni-Vent undergoes a self-checking process every time its MODE Selector Switch is turned from "OFF" to ACV, SIMV, or CPAP; or from CAL to ACV, SIMV, or CPAP. After the initial SELF-CHECK is performed, selfchecking is not repeated if the operator turns the MODE Selector Switch to another operating mode position.

The SELF-CHECK process consists of interaction between Uni-Vent's microprocessor and peripheral circuitry to verify external power/internal battery status, memory check, pressure transducer calibration and control panel settings.

NOTE

If external oxygen and/or external compressed gas is connected, each gas pressure m ust be at least 40-PSI (+/ - 2PSI) at the time SELF-CHECK is performed.

WARNING

SELF-CHECK must be performed with the disposable ventilator circuit disconnected from the patient. This insures that the TRANSDUCER connection is open to ambient atmosphere. Ignoring this requirement could cause the SELF- CHECK process to sense a residual airway pressure. Current information is compared to previous calibration information stored in memory. Accordingly, any residual pressure would result in a false reading leading to a SELF-CHECK failure.

Operation begins immediately following SELF-CHECK. If Uni-Vent fails SELF-CHECK, a VENTILATOR FAIL Alarm will occur. Return the MODE Selector Switch

to its OFF position and then repeat this procedure. If SELF-CHECK fails again, contact qualified service personnel

- DO NOT ATTEMPT PATIENT USE. SELF-CHECK will automatically alert attendant personnel if the pressure transducer calibration "zero" baseline

exceeds +/- 1 cmH2O from its last calibration. A TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION Alarm activated during SELFCHECK will cause an audible tone and the AMC to display:

TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION - - OR - VENTILATOR FAILURE CALIBRATE TRANSDUCER DETECTED VENTILATOR FAILURE if SELF-CHECK DETECTED Alarm is not related to the FAILURE CODE 1 Transducer FAILURE CODE 1

• SELF-CHECK FAILURE! Calibration: • SELF-CHECK FAILURE! If only the pressure transducer calibration portion of SELF-CHECK fails, proceed to the section entitled

TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION - DO NOT ATTEMPT PATIENT USE.

TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION

The disposable ventilator circuit connects to a pressure-sensing element (transducer) in the ventilator. The transducer, in turn, provides a stream of data to Uni-Vent's microprocessor. Transducer calibration information is stored in a serial, non-volatile EEPROM memory. This information is updated automatically during SELF-CHECK, then every 5-minutes thereafter through Eagle's AUTO CAL function, or, it can be manually updated by the user. Transducer calibration is essential for correct operation.

The TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION process calibrates Uni-Vent's internal pressure transducer to atmospheric pressure. During operation, Uni-Vent's microprocessor will respond according to pressure signals from the transducer which are compared to its control panel settings.

TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION, (cont'd)

AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION (AUTO CAL) During operation, Eagle performs an automatic calibration of its pressure transducer every 5-minutes. This

process maintains a consistent transducer baseline over a wide temperature range to assure display, monitoring, and triggering accuracy. If the baseline drifts significantly since the prior AUTO CAL was performed, or the baseline is unstable, Eagle will retry AUTO CAL 1-minute later. If AUTO CAL fails again, a VENTILATOR FAILURE Alarm, CODE 7 is activated to assure patient safety.

MANUAL CALIBRATION

WARNING

TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION, like SELF-CHECK, must be performed with the disposable ventilator circuit disconnected from the patient. This insures that the TRANSDUCER connection is open to ambient atmosphere. Ignoring this requirement would allow the procedure to sense any residual airway pressure in the patient circuit. The residual pressure becomes the new calibration reference (albeit a false reference), which will increase your patient's work-of-breathing by the residual amount.

• 1. Set MODE Selector Switch to CAL. The AMC will display:

Calibration...Please Wait MODE = CAL

• 2. Calibration will take approximately 3-seconds. When finished, the AMC display will change to:

MODE = CAL OK

NOTE

The PIC will display information pertinent to operating power and battery charge status in addition to the above AMC messages.

A TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION ABORT Alarm will occur if the MODE Selector Switch is turned to an operating mode position before CAL is completed. The CAL procedure must be restarted by turning the MODE Selector Switch to any position other than CAL, and then returning it to CAL, and repeating the process described in steps 1, 2 and 3 above. When activated the AMC displays: TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION ABORT RECALIBRATE TRANSDUCER or TRANSDUCER CALIBRATION ABORT. The AMC will blank if a SYSTEM FAILURE Alarm occurs.

USER PROGRAMS

The Model 754/754M contains a USER PROGRAMS menu that allows certain operating characteristics to be changed. Some changes can be stored in Eagle 's memory - temporary changes are not. Program changes that get stored in memory apply each time the ventilator is operated or, until the user makes a new program change effecting that particular characteristic. Temporary changes are not stored in memory and will last until ventilator power is turned OFF. User programmable/selectable characteristics are: LCD Backlight Threshold default, LCD Contrast

default, Trigger Level Sensitivity, Set Spontaneous Flow, Demonstration Mode (DEMO), and TEST BACKUP VENTILATOR.

The bottom line of each menu in USER PROGRAMS contains the following information: "#### Hrs" - where "####" represents cumulative hours of operation since the

last Preventative Maintenance was performed.

LCD BACKLIGHT THRESHOLD DEFAULT: Sets the LCD's backlight setpoint. When programmed, it defaults to current ambient lighting conditions to assure adequate display illumination during operation. Changes can be stored in memory by pressing the pushbutton switch adjacent to the on screen "SAVE" prompt. If "SAVE" is not pressed, the previously stored setpoint remains.

LCD CONTRAST DEFAULT: Controls the LCD's contrast setpoint. Depending upon viewing comfort, user's may choose to increase or decrease color contrast between activated LCD pixels and their background. Any increase or decrease to the setpoint is seen on the LCD. Changes can be stored in memory or temporarily used during the current operating cycle. To store changes in memory, the pushbutton switch adjacent to the on screen "SAVE" prompt must be pressed. If "SAVE" is not pressed, the previously stored setpoint remains.

TRIGGER LEVEL SENSITIVITY: Controls the inspiratory work-of-breathing setpoint for patient-triggered breaths. Eagl e's default sensitivity is 1.5 to 2.0 cmH2O below end pressure. This USER PROGRAM allows

Trigger Level Sensitivity to be temporarily changed until operating power is turned OFF. It is adjustable from 1.0 to

6.0 cmH2O in 0.5 cmH2O increments. For spontaneous breaths occurring in SIMV and CPAP, the sensitivity cannot be set below 2 cmH2O. Sensitivity adjustments to 2 cmH2O, or higher, will affect all breaths. Adjustments made below 2 cmH2O will only affect mandatory breaths. New settings cannot be saved in memory. Once operating power is turned "OFF" Trigger Level Sensitivity is returned to its default value.

NOTE

Under most operating conditions Eagle's default Trigger Level Sensitivity should be used. User's are cautioned to carefully consider their operating environment before selecting a different Trigger Level Sensitivity. If 1.0 cmH2O is selected, motion artifact may cause false triggering of breaths. Conversely, selecting a sensitivity above 2.0 cmH2O to compensate for excessive motion artif act, or physiologic conditions, can cause excessive inspiratory work-of-breathing.

SET SPONTANEOUS FLOW: Eagle 's default Spontaneous Flow is 60 LPM. This USER PROGRAM allows

Spontaneous Flow (for use in SIMV or CPAP) to be temporarily changed until operating power is turned OFF. It is adjustable from 10 to 60 LPM in 5 LPM increments. New settings cannot be saved in memory. Once operating power is turned "OFF", Spontaneous Flow is returned to its default value.

DEMONSTRATION MODE (DEMO): Permits user's to operate this device in a mode that is quite helpful for demonstration/training purposes. DEMO mode allows user's to make settings, adjustments, trigger alarms, and view simulation waveforms on Eagle 's LCD. DEMO mode does not allow Disconnect Alarm activation or Proximal Pressure Transducer operation.

WARNING

DEMO mode is not for patient use. Once operating power is turned "OFF" DEMO mode is cancelled.

TEST BACKUP VENTILATOR: Permits user to test the BACKUP VENTILATOR and MANUAL TRIGGER.

Activating the BACKUP VENTILATOR will cause it to function as described in the section entitled BACKUP VENTILATOR. To leave the BACKUP VENTILATOR function and return to normal operation, turn the MODE Control Switch to "OFF" then "ON" to desired operating mode.
