DEFINING SETUP OPTIONS
The following paragraphs describe the setup options that define some of the operating features for the
LIFEPAK 500 AED. The user should become thoroughly familiar with the operating features particular
to their LIFEPAK 500 AED.
Device ID
The DEVICE ID option assigns a unique identifier that is printed at the top of each report. Up to 20
characters with any combination of displayable characters can be used. The factory default setting is an
automatically generated sequence number.
Modem Phone Number
The MODEM PHONE NUMBER option is the character string that the AED dials when it transfers data by
modem. The dial string may include up to 20 characters as described in Table 2-3. The factory default
dial string is T9W1886279698. This is the dial string required to download data from the LIFEPAK 500
AED to LIFELINK MD under the LIFENET MD™ medical control plan. The characters T9W are required
if 9 must be dialed first to access an outside line from the telephone being used. However, if the
telephone being used has direct access (long distance dialing begins with 1), change T9W to blanks.
