Connect defibrillation cable to
simulator. (The connector on
your simulator may be different
from the one shown here.)

WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD!

Be sure defibrillation cable is
securely attached to simulator.

Figure 2

1. Connect monitor's ECG cable to simulator's ECG snaps. See Figure 1.

2. Connect defibrillation cable to simulator's defib cable receptacle. See Figure 2.

3. Press ON OFF key to power-on simulator. Observe that NSR indicator is
illuminated.

4. Power-on monitor/defibrillator. Observe that NSR at 72 bpm is displayed.

The CS301 Code Simulator is warranted to be free of defects in material or
workmanship for three years from date of purchase.

If the simulator needs service, or if you have questions about its operation, please
contact Symbio customer service, or your authorized dealer.

The simulator powers-off automatically about 30 minutes after a key was last
pressed, or after defib or pacer energy was last detected. This is normal operation.

To allow simulator to remain powered-on after 30 minutes, follow these instructions:

1. Power-off simulator.

2. Press and hold down convert key, then press and release ON OFF key.
The simulator powers-on.

3. Observe NSR indicator. When indicator blinks on and off, release convert key.
NSR indicator continues to blink for about one second.

The battery saver feature is now disabled. When you power-off the simulator,
it will return to normal battery saver operation.

The simulator is powered by one 9 volt alkaline battery. To replace the battery, turn
over simulator, then slide open battery compartment door.

LOW BATT

Red indicator illuminates when battery
needs to be replaced.

DEFIB DISCHG

Green indicator illuminates for two
seconds when defib discharge is
sensed.

convert

Simulate cardioversion by activating
convert feature. CS301 responds to
defib discharge.

convert

The convert feature allows you to convert automatically from one rhythm
(running rhythm) to another rhythm (waiting rhythm) when a discharge is
delivered from a defibrillator set to 50J or more.
To perform convert operation:

1. Press convert key. Indicator of running rhythm pulses brighter.

2. Press key of rhythm to be simulated immediately after defib discharge.

Indicator of this (waiting) rhythm blinks on and off.

3. Discharge defibrillator. The waiting rhythm becomes the running rhythm.
To cancel convert operation before it's completed, either press convert key again or
press key of running rhythm. If convert operation is started, but a discharge is not
sensed within two minutes, the convert operation cancels automatically.

Connect simulator to defibrillator. For help, see Getting Started, page 5.

Exercise: Convert VF to NSR using manual defibrillator.

at simulator:

1. Press VF key. VF indicator glows steadily. Confirm VF is displayed on monitor.

2. Press convert key. VF indicator pulses brighter.

3. Press NSR key. NSR indicator blinks on and off. VF indicator glows
steadily again.

at defibrillator:

4. Select 360J using Energy Select switch (1).

5. Press Charge button (2). Listen for charge ready tone.

6. Press both Discharge buttons (3) simultaneously.

7. After discharge observe that:
On monitor, NSR is displayed.
At simulator, NSR indicator glows steadily, and VF indicator is off.

The CS301Code Simulator is an easy to use training tool that allows you to practice
defibrillation procedures, external pacing procedures, and arrhythmia recognition.
Connect your defibrillator and external pacer directly to the CS301 for safe,
interactive training. For arrhythmia recognition, select from 17 rhythms, including
fibrillations, tachycardias, and bradycardias.

PACER PULSE

Green indicator flashes when external
pacer pulse is sensed. (Captured
beat is simulated, too.) Sensing occurs
when external pacer current set to
60mA - 70mA or more.

Rhythms for External Pacer Training

External Pacer Exercise

Connect simulator to external pacer. For help, see Getting Started, page 5.

To simulate paced beats, pacer Rate must be greater than rate of selected rhythm,
and pacer Current must be greater than simulator capture level.

Exercise: Pace 3rd degree AV block at rate of 70 ppm.

at simulator:

1. Press 3rd key. Confirm 3rd degree AV block is displayed on monitor.

at pacer:

2. Select Pacer On. Verify sense markers are displayed with each R wave.
(If not, press ECG Size button until R wave markers are observed.)

3. Select rate of 70 ppm using Rate control.

4. Press Start/Stop button to start pacing.

5. Increase pacer current, using Output control, until you observe paced
beats on monitor. Pacer current setting should read 60mA - 70mA.

Note: If VF is selected rhythm, simulator won't generate paced beats.

Deliver defibrillation discharge to convert automatically.

VF NSR

Initiate pacing to simulate paced beats.

Adult 3rd degree AV Block.
