SIMPAD SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The SimPad System is an easy-to-use, wireless
tool that performs relevant medical simulation
training, including debrieng, in various user
settings. With its large, intuitive touch screen
design, SimPad is vir tually a “Pick up and Play”
experience, allowing you to deliver simulation-
based education, easily and efciently.
There are two ways to control simulations:
Automatic Mode and Manual Mode. This
allows you to customize simulations to meet your
specic needs.
The SimPad System is compatible with a broad
range of Laerdal products including manikins,
patient simulators, and task trainers as well as
standardized patients.

CONNECTING SIMPAD TO ANOTHER LINK BOX
SimPad can only be connected to one Link Box at a time. A Link Box can only be
connected to one SimPad at a time. SimPad will remember the Link Box it was last
connected to, and tr y to re-establish this connection the next time it is turned on.
To connect SimPad to a different Link Box, touch the connection information eld in
the upper right corner.
Select Connect to
another Link Box.
Select new Link Box or
choose to run without
CONNECTING ON A NETWORK
Link Box.
Out of the box, SimPad and Link Box will connect to the SimLink ad hoc network. They may
however be used on a wired Ethernet network, or a WiFi network. SimPad and Link Box may
also be connected directly to each other using a standard network cable.
1. CONNECTING ON WIRED ETHERNET NETWORK
Simply connect SimPad and Link Box to network outlets. The network
needs to have DHCP service. Connection by wire is indicated in the
50%50%
upper right corner of SimPad. It is possible to be on a wired network
and a WiFi network simultaneously.
2. CONNECT TO A WIFI NETWORK
System settings – WiFi

Page 19
If you are moving the Link Box to another wireless network,
Link Box and SimPad must be connected to a wired network
or connected to each other by a network cable during the
connection process.
Select the desired WiFi
network from the list
and enter the network
password.
Then select the
device you want
to move to the
new network.
REGISTERING SIMPAD ON SIMSTORE
To register SimPad on SimStore, it needs to be connected to a network with internet, either via
wired Ethernet or a WiFi network.
• Touch the SimStore Icon
on the start screen.
• Select institution, enter
username and password
and touch register.
English
• SimPad identier will then

SYNCHRONIZING SIMPAD WITH SIMSTORE
After SimPad has been registered on SimStore, the SimStore Icon on the start screen becomes a
Synchronize selection. Synchronize will download scenarios assigned to this SimPad on SimStore.
Administration of the SimPad and purchasing of scenarios on SimStore must be done from a PC.
PATIENT MONITOR
SimPad System can work with a Laerdal Simulated Patient Monitor. The patient monitor can show
ECG, SpO2, BP, Respiration rate, and Temperature from the SimPad.
The Monitor software needs to connect to the desired Link Box through a network connection,
wired or wireless.
When the PC is set up on the same network as the Link Box, start the Patient Monitor software on
the PC and select the desired Link Box from the selection dialogue.
The monitor software will remember its last connection, and try to reconnect to the same Link Box
the next time it is started.
To change to another Link Box, select “Connection Settings” from the Main Setup menu.

TRANSFERRING LOGS, THEMES AND SCENARIOS TO / FROM A PC
Connect SimPad to the PC using the included USB cable.
• Save new Scenarios in
the Scenarios folder.
• Save new Themes in
the Themes folder.
• Upload logs from the
Logs folder.
Disconnect the USB cable from the SimPad when transfers are nished.
Note: If SimPad is turned off, the batter y can be charged from the USB connection.
This charging is slower than if it is connected to the included DC adapter.

SOUND
VOCAL SOUNDS
Vocal sounds from the patient simulator such as crying, moaning etc. can be activated from
the SimPad directly or via Themes and Scenarios.
TALKING THROUGH THE MANIKIN
1. NO HEADSET
The Link Box has a microphone input where you can plug in a standard computer micro-
phone or another sound source. When only this microphone is plugged in, the input from
the microphone will be routed to the manikin.
2. HEADSET
Alternatively a headset can connect to SimPad to create two-way communication between
the operator and the simulator and surroundings.
Plug an analogue headset (4 pin jack) into the SimPad. The microphone of the headset will
now be routed to the manikin. If a microphone is connected to the Link Box as in alternative
one, this microphone will now be routed to the headset.
The yellow button on the SimPad can be congured in the Preferences menu to enable and
disable the input from the headset.
The headset output on the Link Box duplicates the sound to the manikin. It can be used to
improve the sound by adding additional speakers around the manikin.

LAERDAL LI-ION BATTERY
It is possible to connect two Laerdal Li-Ion batteries to the
Link Box.
When the Link Box is powered on, the batteries are discharged
in parallel. The remaining capacity in each battery will be displayed
in the SimPad.
BATTERY CHARGING
The batteries can be charged through the Link Box when the Link Box power is turned off and
the Link Box is connected to the AC adapter.
During charging, the Link Box ON indicator will blink with a yellow light, and the LED indicators
on the batteries will show a steady yellow. When the batteries are fully charged, voltage to the
batteries will be turned off and the indicator on the Link Box will show steady yellow.
English
