7) Be sure that the sensor cable is positioned along the side of the animal’s face and body
to avoid entanglement with the animal.
WARNING:
Do not use supplemental tape to adhere the clip and sensor directly to the site; this can restrict
blood flow and cause inaccurate measurements. For best results, secure the sensor cable
independently from the sensor.
8) Connect the sensor assembly to the Interface Cable:
a) Place the plastic hinged cover in the unlocked position (perpendicular to the
connector).
b) Connect the sensor assembly to the Interface Cable.
c) Lock the plastic hinged cover to prevent accidental cable disconnection.

9) Plug the Interface Cable into the SpO
2
connector on the side panel of the monitor. The
connector is shaped like a “D”. Line up the “D” on the Interface Cable with the “D” on the
receptacle. Push the cable in until you hear an audible “click”.
10) Press the ON/STANDBY pushbutton to turn “ON” the monitor.
11) Verify that the sensor is properly positioned by observing at least ten seconds of
continuous green blinking of the signal strength bar (perfusion LED). Should the
perfusion light be at a low level, reposition the sensor or try a different sensor. If normal
operation cannot be achieved, call a Midmark representative for assistance.
12) Check the Alarm Limits and configure them appropriately for the patient. Refer to Page
60, PATIENT ALARM MODE for more information.
13) If an audio “beep” is required based on the %SpO
2
, refer to Page 64, ADJUSTING THE
SpO
2
“BEEP” VOLUME for more information.
