Theory of Operation: 3.3 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
16 Bit ADC, Primary Processor, and Secondary Processor. The
Primary Processor services and controls the Patient Parameter
Interface (PPI) devices and display backlighting. The Secondary
Processor controls the seven segment LED display, sound
generation, real time clock, and system timing verification. The
processors receive DC power from the PSU PWA. When the PPI
devices transmit analog data to the Main Board A/D converter, the
Primary Processor perform algorithm calculations. Once all the
calculated parameter values are compiled, the data is then
transmitted to the LCD and printer via Secondary Processor.
Concurrently, the calculated parameter values are being stored in the
non-volatile RAM. Calibration and other variable settings are stored in
the Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory
(EEPROM).
The Main Board backup voltage, derived from either NiMH battery or
an external power source, appears on the Main Board supervisory
circuit. The Main Board supervisory circuit generates the RESET and
HALT signal for the Primary Processor. It also, allows EXTERNAL DC
voltage to the RAM and Secondary Processor when the system is ON
or battery backup voltage to power the RAM and Secondary
Processor when the system is OFF.
If the Primary Processor fails to reset its watchdog timer, the Primary
Processor sends a low level on its watchdog output to the Pneumatic
Control Gate Array Logic (PCGAL). If the Primary Processor detects
system faults or overpressure, it will notify the Secondary Processor
of system failure condition. The Secondary Processor in turn, sends a
FAILSAFE signal to the PCGAL and Tone Generator. When the
PCGAL receives the FAILSAFE signal, it sends a DEFLATE signal to
the Pneumatic Valves to depressurize the system to atmosphere.
Once the Tone Generator receives the FAILSAFE signal, it sends an
audio frequency (ALARM signal) to the speaker. During the fail-safe
mode the following will also occur:
Parameter monitoring disabled
Remote alarm control inactive
Graphic LCD displays fault error code
Pneumatic safe state (deflate the cuff, pump off)
Normal communications interface disabled
Hard keys and rotary switch inactive
When a low or high ambient room lighting occurs, the Primary
Processor uses it’s supervisory circuit to increase or decrease the
graphic backlighting, automatically.
3.3.4 SPO2 PWA (Optional)
The SPO2 PWA provides continuous readings of oxygen saturation
and pulse rate. Additional circuitry provides power, data
