PHYSIO CONTROL LIFEPAK CR2 Defibrillator Installation Guide

PHYSIO CONTROL LIFEPAK CR2 Defibrillator

Please ensure the LIFEPAK CR2 Defibrillator is ‘Connected and Ready’ for use in an emergency by following these simple instructions.

Before You Begin

Determine your defibrillator type

Follow the Getting Started Guide provided with the defibrillator and determine what type of defibrillator you have:

• USB only
• Wi-Fi® and USB
• Wi-Fi, cellular, and USB

If the defibrillator is USB only, do not attempt this procedure.

Determine your online account type You should have an account on one of the following two websites.

• LIFELINK central AED Program Manager, or
• LIFENET® System

Many health care organizations have existing LIFENET System accounts to manage their devices. If your organization has a LIFENET System account, do not use this setup guide. Instead, log in to your account and download the Wireless Setup Guide for LIFEPAK CR2 defibrillators from the Resource Center.
If you do not have a LIFENET System account, follow this setup guide and use LIFELINK central AED Program Manager to set up your AED.

Note: In this guide, the term “AED” (Automated External Defibrillator) is used to refer to the defibrillator.

Wireless Setup Overview

A typical wireless setup takes 10-20 minutes.

The following pages will guide you through these steps:

• Download a software application from a website to your computer.
• Run the application on your computer to load Wi-Fi network settings into the AED.
• Connect the AED to the wireless network at its intended location.
• Confirm the AED status in your online account.

Note: Physio-Control recommends that all LIFEPAK CR2 AEDs with Wi-Fi capability be set up with a Wi-Fi network, even if the AED also has cellular capability.

Pre-installation Checklist

a. Set up your LIFEPAK CR2 Defibrillator (AED) as instructed in the Getting Started Guide and verify the Readiness indicator is flashing.
b. Confirm that the intended location for the AED has a good connection to the Wi-Fi network.
Test the signal strength of the Wi-Fi network at the intended AED location using a different Wi-Fi device such as a smartphone.
c. Identify the Wi-Fi network information you will need to connect the AED to the network.
NETWORK NAME:
SECURITY KEY:
d. Confirm that you have a PC with internet access and Windows® 7 or above operating system. You will need Administrator rights on the PC.

RF Exposure Information

The LIFEPAK CR2 defibrillator is designed and manufactured to not exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government, the Industry Canada (IC) and the Council of the European Union (CE)

The exposure standards for wireless devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limits are shown in the table below.

|

FCC/IC (1g)

|

EU (10g)

---|---|---

Limit

|

1.6 W/kg

|

2.0 W/kg

The Highest Reported Body Value (3 cm gap)

|

< 1.0 W/kg

|

< 0.8 W/kg

The maximum SAR level of this device is below the limits. Nevertheless, this device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during wireless data transmission is minimized.

Note : When carrying or using the device, maintain a distance of 3 cm (1.18 inch) to ensure compliance with RF exposure requirements.

How to get help.
If you need assistance, contact Physio-Control Customer Support. See the contact list included with this guide for region-specific phone numbers. When you call, be prepared to provide your AED serial number (recorded in step 4 of the Getting Started Guide).
