6. If on-the-fly mode switching has been enabled you may press the gray Menu/Mode switch button to
switch between 15:2 and continuous compressions. The current mode is displayed in the upper left
corner of the screen. The words above the gray Menu/Mode switch button indicate the alternate
mode that the Platform will switch to. If there are no words above the gray button then on-the-fly
mode switching in not enabled, and the Platform will only operate in the current mode and pressing
the gray button will have no effect.
Once the gray Menu/Mode switch button has been pressed you will be asked to confirm the mode
switch (see Figure 3-13) by pressing the gray Menu/Mode switch button twice in rapid secession.
A single tone will sound to confirm that the mode change has been accepted.
7. If access to the patient is required or to pause the AutoPulse Platform for any reason, press the Stop/
Cancel button. The AutoPulse Platform releases the tension on the LifeBand chest bands allowing
the user to pull out the bands to the maximum extended position. 30 seconds after the Stop/Cancel
button has been pressed a single audio alert tone will sound. Following that initial tone the system
will beep once every 60 seconds (one minute), 30 seconds or 15 seconds, according to the setting in
the “Set Pause Alert Tone” menu item in the Administrative Menu. The tones can be temporarily
disabled (and re-enabled) by pressing the Tone Silence button (refer to section Section 1.4.2.6,
“Tone Silence Button,” on page 1-7). If there are no tones present they have been disabled in the
Administrative Menu (refer to section Section 2.3, “Administrative Menu: user pre-set options,” on
page 2-9) and the Tone Silence button will have no effect.
