1. Patient Setup
This option is used to set the patient’s weight. The Controller automatically
adjusts the pressure values for Float and Alternating Pressure modes
based on the patient’s weight. Resetting the patient’s weight at any time
will override any user changes to AP and/or Float Pressures entered
directly on the main screen or through the Advanced Settings. However,
Fowler Boost and Cycle Time do not reset. They must be adjusted
manually. By default, Fowler Boost is 20% and Cycle time is 6 minutes.

2. Advanced settings
This option is used to customize settings such as Mattress Pressures,
percentage of Fowler Boost increase and AP Cycle time. From the Main
Menu screen (Figure 4) select Advanced. The Advanced Menu will
appear. (Figure 6)
