Accessing Prescription Setting Screens

Full Menu Access Mode
The ventilator has two levels of menu access, Full and Limited. Full Menu Access allows you to alter all available settings. Limited Menu access permits the user to alter only those prescription parameters that affect patient comfort, such as Rise Time, Flex, and Ramp Start Pressure, if those parameters are available as part of the prescription. The ventilator defaults to Full Menu Access mode.
After accessing the Main Menu, if the device is in Limited Menu Access mode, you can use the following Setup key sequence to enter Full Menu Access mode and be able to change prescription settings:
•• Press the Down button and the Alarm Indicator/Audio Pause button simultaneously for several seconds. This will temporarily place the device in Full Menu Access mode.
When you perform this key sequence from the Monitor screen, the Main Menu screen appears and an audible indicator sounds indicating you are now in Full Menu Access mode.
When you perform this key sequence when the airflow is off, the Setup screen appears and an audible indicator sounds.
You can go into the Options menu and permanently change the Menu Access setting to Full Menu Access. Otherwise, the device will return to the Menu Access mode stored in the setting once you exit the menu screens or if one minute passes without pressing any device buttons. If you are in the Setup mode, and an SD card is in the device, “Write Event Log to SD Card” will appear in the menu.
Note: The Full Menu Access key sequence can be performed either from the Power Off screen or from the Monitor screen.
Note: When the airflow is off and AC power is removed from the device for more than 5 minutes, the device will enter a low power mode to save battery life. When the device is in low power mode, the Setup key sequence will be ignored. Press the Start/Stop button, or connect AC power, or insert an SD card to exit the low power mode.
Note: Philips Respironics recommends that after you are finished changing prescription settings, and you give the device to the patient, you set the device back to Limited Menu Access mode so patients cannot change their prescription settings.
