Philips HEARTSTART XLT 

Defibrillator Test (AC Power At 200 J)
These instructions describe how to test the defibrillation function when powered only by the AC Power Module (no battery installed).
This test is required only if the defibrillator is connected to AC power during normal use.
If all results are as described, the unit passes the test. Return to the main Diagnostic Test menu by pressing .
If there is any failure, begin troubleshooting and repairing the unit as needed.
1. Turn defibrillator off and remove the battery. Connect the AC Power Module.
2. Connect the defibrillator analyzer to the pads cable. Set the analyzer to measure delivered energy. If needed, reset the analyzer’s display to read 0.
3. Turn the defibrillator on, and from the Diagnostic Menu, Select the Defib Meas Test and press .
4. Use the softkey to select 200J. Then press the softkey to charge the defibrillator. Press .
Readings from defibrillator analyzer:
Read the delivered energy indicated by the defibrillator analyzer. It should be 200J +15% (+30J). Record as "aaa"

Defibrillator Test (Battery Power At 200 J)
These instructions describe how to test the defibrillation function when powered only by a fully charged battery, with no AC Power Module connected.
This test is always required when performing the full Performance Verification test.
If all results are as described, the unit passes the test. Return to the main Diagnostic Test menu by pressing . If there is any failure, begin troubleshooting and repairing the unit as needed.
1. Turn defibrillator off. Insert the battery and disconnect the AC Power Module.
2. Connect the defibrillator analyzer to the pads cable. Set the analyzer to measure delivered energy. If needed, reset the analyzer’s display to read 0.
3. Turn the defibrillator on, and from the Diagnostic Menu, Select the Defib Meas Test and press .
4. Use the softkey to select 200J. Then press the softkey to charge the defibrillator. Press .
Readings from defibrillator analyzer:
Read the delivered energy indicated by the defibrillator analyzer. It should be 200J +15% (+30J). Record as "aaa".

Defibrillator Disarm Test
These instructions describe how to test the disarm function.
If all results are as described, the unit passes the test. Return to the main Diagnostic Test menu by pressing . If there is any failure, begin troubleshooting and repairing the unit as needed.
1. Connect the defibrillator analyzer to the pads cable. If needed, reset the analyzer’s display to read 0.
2. From the Diagnostic Menu, Select the Defib Meas Test and press .
3. Use the softkey to select 200J. Then press the softkey to charge the defibrillator. Press .
Readings from defibrillator analyzer:
Read the delivered energy indicated by the defibrillator analyzer. It should be 0J or be blank.

Battery Capacity Test
The Battery Capacity Test is not part of the routine Performance Verification.
This test is part of the routine checks that the user performs. See the Instructions for Use for details. It is included here for reference.
To perform a Battery Capacity Test:
1. Turn the M3500B/M5500B off.
2. Place a "Test in Progress" label on the unit to indicate to others that it may not be used.
3. Insert a charged battery.
4. If an AC or DC power module is connected, unplug the power module
from the HeartStart XLT. While pressing MARK/EVENT press On to start the test.
5. Allow the test to proceed to completion. The test takes approximately three hours and is complete when test results print out and the device turns itself off.
6. Review the test results and take the appropriate action, as follows:

Battery Capacity Test Results

IF	Then
Elapsed Time > 2.5 hours and Low Battery Time > 10 minutes	1. The battery passed the test. 2. Record "pass CT" and the date on the label on the bottom of the battery. 3. Recharge the battery before use.
Elapsed Time < 2.5 hours or Low Battery Time < 10 minutes	1. The battery failed the test. 2. Record "fail CT" and the date on the label on the bottom of the battery. 3. Discard the battery appropriately.

Accessing Diagnostic Mode

These instructions describe how to enter Diagnostic Mode. The Diagnostic Mode allows printing of the System Log .It also allows running the Extended Self Test and other Diagnostic Tests.
1. Make sure the power is off.
2. Press softkeys 4 and 6 at the same time, and hold them down while turning the power on.
3. Wait for the Diagnostic software to initialize. This will take several seconds. The unit is ready to proceed when the screen cursor responds to softkey inputs.
# To select a function, press the and softkeys to move up or down the list until the desired function is highlighted. Then press the softkey to begin that function.
# To exit Diagnostic Mode, turn the instrument off.

Printing the System Log
These instructions describe how to print the system log, which includes the
unit’s serial number, hardware configuration, and a listing of error codes.
1. Enter Diagnostic Mode as described in "Accessing Diagnostic Mode".

2. Select Print Log and press .
3. The printer will print the System Log strip.
4. Check the printout to verify the printed results are consistent with the hardware in place. Verify options installed (SpO2, pacing) and the unit’s serial number (on the bottom of the case). If the printout is not correct, investigate and resolve the source of the mismatch. Then reset the hardware options and serial number as needed using the Support Software Tool.
