Using Battery Storage Mode

VOCSN is shipped in Battery Storage Mode to preserve the charge of its three batteries. With software versions 4.11R and later, users can select the Activate Battery Storage Mode control in the Device Settings and place the fully charged internal battery and both removable, rechargeable batteries back into this power-saving storage mode. This allows VOCSN to remain in storage for 12 months at a time between recharging the batteries.

To activate Battery Storage Mode before putting VOCSN into storage:

1. 1 Fully charge the internal and two removable, rechargeable batteries. The small indicator light next to the On/Off button will illuminate green when all three batteries are fully charged.
2. Press the Menu tab, and then select Device Settings.
3. Scroll down the to Activate Battery Storage Mode control. Press the control name to highlight it, and then select Edit.
4. An instructional screen will appear. Follow all on-screen instructions carefully. Ensure both removable, rechargeable batteries are connected, and that external power is disconnected.
5. Press and hold the On/Off button for 3 seconds (but less than 10 seconds).
6. Press OK in the pop-up. VOCSN will power down, and the Inop alarm will sound to confirm Battery Storage Mode was successfully activated.
7. Press the On/Off button to clear the alarm.

To reactivate the three batteries and use VOCSN:

1. Leave the removable, rechargeable batteries connected.
2. Connect external power. VOCSN will immediately power on and sound the Inop alarm to confirm the batteries are active and no longer in storage mode.
3. Press the On/Off button to clear the alarm.
4. Press the Menu tab, and then select Device Settings.
5. Set the Date and Time controls.
6. Follow your healthcare institution’s protocol to begin using VOCSN.
