System Description
LCD Display
The LCD Display shows radio communication information when radio communication is active
(wireless radio model only). It also shows system information. All Rad-87 models are equipped
with an LCD display which is located on the top panel of a horizontal model, or on the left side
panel of a vertical model.
The LCD Display illuminates upon start up and displays the installed parameter/measurement's
low and high alarm limits. Once the Rad-87 completes system initiation, the display light turns off.
As the front panel buttons are pressed, each menu selection is shown on the LCD Display.
When Rad-87 actively communicates with another system using the radio feature, the LCD
Display shows the following:
■ Patient SafetyNet: The LCD Display shows the information sent from the Patient
SafetyNet to the Rad-87.
■ Philips VueLink: The LCD Display shows "VueLink Conn" and "Alarm Tones On" or
"Alarm Tones Off".
NOTE: When the Rad-87 is interfaced to the Philips VueLink and the LCD Display shows
"Alarm Tones On", audible alarms are active at the instrument. When the LCD Display
shows "Alarm Tones Off", audible alarms are inactive at the instrument.
If the Display Button is pressed down for 5 seconds, the LCD Display shows the following settings
three times and then returns to the default screen. The display cycle can be interrupted by
pressing any button except for the Sensitivity or the Alarm Silence Buttons.
