PillCam Capsule Endoscopy
68 PillCam Recorder DR3
To activate real-time viewing (only after pairing), use the navigation buttons located under the icons at the
bottom of the display: press the button below the camera icon, then the left button, and then the right button.
When a regimen instruction alert is activated, the instruction number appears all over the main screen and
remains until the Acknowledge button is pressed. The graphic indication in the top right corner of the
displayed alert indicates that an acknowledge response is required by pressing the acknowledge button.
Error messages appear similarly over the main screen (see Error Messages on page 73).
LED Display
The top of the PillCam recorder has a small screen on which the capsule and message LEDs are displayed.
These LEDs indicate the status of the PillCam recorder and the capsule endoscopy procedure. For
example, when the capsule LED on the PillCam recorder blinks in blue, this means that PillCam recorder
is receiving data from a capsule.
For a complete list of all capsule and message LEDs, see PillCam Recorder DR3 LEDs on page 70.
Acknowledge (ACK) Button, Designated for Patient Use
During a capsule endoscopy procedure, patients press the Acknowledge button in response to PillCam
recorder message alerts that appear on the recorder display. This ensures that the patient acknowledges the
instruction message. This can include regimen instruction messages during post-ingestion regimen (see
Post-Ingestion Patient Instructions on page 187).
• The acknowledge button will simultaneously blink with the display of any regimen reminder popup in
PillCam recorder DR3 LCD display and it will keep blinking until patient pressed the acknowledge
button for 3 sec or the popup display has reached its time out duration.
• At the end of 3 sec continuous pressing on the acknowledge button the blinking will go off.
