Daily Checks For a function check of the compact device, all the modules of the corpuls3 must be connected mechanically. The mechanical connections have to be heard to click into place. The following measures must be taken:
Warning
Before using the testbox (P/N 04310) the cable of the testbox has to be checked for damage. If there is damage, the testbox may not be used under any circumstances.

None
The jog dial briefly illuminates at the beginning. The display is illuminated.
Internal self test The corpuls3 performs a test of the internal functions
Curve and parameter fields are displayed. The state of charge of the batteries is displayed in percent or in minutes remaining running time. Device is sufficiently charged. Connection status of the modules is displayed.

Module connection test Separating all modules Re-connecting all modules
In the status line the connection status changes from bar symbol to wave symbol In the status line the connection status changes from wave symbol to bar symbol No error message is issued

Check function of the shock paddle buttons
Press the shock paddle buttons a few times to ensure perfect functionality.
By pressing the shock paddle buttons a confirmative tone sounds. Energy is internally discharged via the test contacts.
Communication between modules
Daily check
Deliver a shock (see below: Function check of defibrillator/pacer)
No error message is issued.
Daily check Description

Correct result
Check if sufficient printer paper is available. Check if the marking indicating the end of the paper roll (red stripe) is visible. Run a test printout, e.g. a screenshot. Check if an replacement roll is present.
A strip of paper is issued. The marking indicating the end of the paper roll is not yet visible. It is recommended to load a new roll of paper as soon as it is visible. The appearance of the type is completely legible and of good quality. A replacement roll is present.
Printer Function check of the printer
Power Supply Check the state of charge of the corpuls3 batteries as a compact device
Connect all modules of the corpuls3 (compact device).
• The state of charge of the batteries shows a figure greater than 30%.
Connect corpuls3 to the mains supply (either via the charging bracket or and external mains charger).
If the corpuls3 will probably be operated at low temperatures (e. g. in the cold season) the state of charge should indicate a figure higher than 50% (at room temperature).
Switch on the corpuls3 and check the state of charge of the batteries (percentage) in the status line after the booting process. Check the remaining running time of the individual modules
Separate all corpuls3 modules in the switched-on state. Remove the charging cable of the mains charger or remove the module from its charging bracket. Check the predicted remaining running time of the monitoring unit and patient box in the status line.
• The remaining running time of the modules is more than 120 minutes.
Daily check of the device
Loading the Printer Paper The printer paper has a marking in form of a red stripe at its edge indicating the end of the paper roll. It is recommended to load a new roll of paper as soon as this marking is visible.

To avoid damage to the printer flap, the monitoring unit, when disconnected from the defibrillator/pacer, should be placed on a flat surface to load the printer paper. 1.
Pull the locking lever (item 1) of the printer flap slightly downwards to unlock (item A) the printer flap (item 2) and open it downwards (item B).

2.
Push the paper roll holder on both sides slightly outwards (item A) to remove the roll of paper.
3.
Insert a new roll of paper into the holder (item 2) so that the end of the paper has its printed side facing upwards and forwards.
4.
Pull (item B) the paper forwards over the edge of the printer flap (item 4) and hold.
5.
Push the printer flap upwards and close the printer compartment until the lock is heard to click into place.
6.
Make sure that the locking hooks at the printer flap are firmly engaged on both sides.
7.
Always tear off the paper upwards on the cutting edge to avoid paper jams or other printing problems....
