Turning On the Monitor

To Turn On the Monitor

Press and hold until a tone sounds.

1. A tone sounds as the green, yellow, and red lights turn on and off. This occurs twice.

2. The splash screen appears (Figure 6), identifying the product and displaying the

message “Diagnostics in progress”. The green light turns on and off quickly while the

low tone sounds, the yellow light turns on and off quickly while the medium tone

sounds, and the red light turns on and off quickly while the loud tone sounds.

Note

The monitor runs through an operational self-test each time it is powered up.

Always verify that it follows this power-up sequence. If it does not, remove it from

service and have it examined by a qualified service person.

Note

When step 2 completes as described, the monitor has verified that the visual and

audible alarm indicators are working properly.
