Setup Procedures: Performing a Functional Checkout

Testing the Remote Event Marker Function

1. Plug the Remote Event Marker into the transmitter’s Remote Marks

connector.

2. Turn on the monitor’s strip chart recorder.

3. Press the Remote Event Marker’s pushbutton for at least one second.

Verify that an appropriate mark is printed on the paper:

: This annotation is commonly used to record an “event.” This

mark is available on all Corometrics-brand monitors.

: This annotation is commonly used as an indication that the

mother has perceived fetal movement. (Refer to your monitor’s

operator’s manual to learn if your monitor supports this feature.

Refer to your monitor’s service manual for information about

enabling the option.)

Testing the Environment

Decide on which areas of your facility will be used for ambulatory

monitoring. Test each location separately to rule out rooms that are

restricted due to metal structures blocking signal transmission.
