Changing Default Settings and Patient Category

Each system is configured in the factory with the factory default settings. The settings are collected together to form Configuration Sets. There are 4 Configuration Sets available with universal settings:

Configuration Set 1 is for adult, intensive care unit application. Configuration Set 2 is for adult, operating room application. Configuration Set 3 is for neonatal, intensive care unit application. Configuration Set 4 is for neonatal, operating room application.

The Configuration Sets also include parameter default settings.

If your hospital requested it, these Configuration Sets will have been customized at installation to your specific requirements. In this case those new settings are the user default settings; if the settings were not changed at installation, the user default settings and the factory default settings are the same.

You can change the patient category within a Configuration Set during normal monitoring. However, if after delivery of your system, you want to change any of the other parameters or universal settings, you will need to contact your Philips service engineer or your biomedical engineering department, as this procedure has to be done in a special Configuration Mode. Changes can be made to a Configuration Set to suit an individual clinician's needs, for example, or to provide optimal settings for a particular medical procedure.
