Introduction
This section describes the theory of operation of the circuits that make up the Analyzer.

Defibrillator Input
The Analyzer measures the energy delivered to a 50 Ω load by a defibrillator. The
Analyzer can be used with an external selectable load accessory, such as the Impulse
7010, for Defibrillator testing requiring this capability.
The Analyzer uses a 40 W wire-wound resistor, R198 on the display PCA, as the Defib
input load. R198 is a “pulse tolerant” design, specified for repeated 500 J pulses, one
pulse every 30 seconds, which is 16.7 W average. R198 is specified for pulsed voltages
up to 5 kV, or 500 kW, for a duration of 1 millisecond.
The Defib banana jack inputs are physically connected to the load resistor using two
“Defib Straps,” MP8 and MP9 on the display PCA. These straps keep the total resistance
from the Defib inputs to the Defib load resistor to under 50 mΩ, which is 0.1 % of 50 Ω.
To measure energy, the Analyzer measures the voltage across R198, squares it, then
divides by the calibrated resistance of R198. Integrating, or more practically summing,
the power over the duration of the pulse yields the total energy in watt-seconds (one watt
for one second equals one Joule of energy). Because of the need to calculate and sum a
sequence of different power levels, an analog to digital converter (ADC) is used to
capture the pulse waveform and ensure precise and repeatable signal processing.
To use an ADC to capture the Defib pulse waveform, the ±5000 V pulse amplitudes must
be scaled down to a few volts. The parameter of interest is the difference in the voltages
on each side of R198.
The voltage measurement made by the Defib function contains no obvious fixed
“ground” or 0 V reference; the internal circuit common will track the average voltage on
the two Defibrillator connections, ensuring that the active analog input circuitry does not
clip and that the scaled difference voltage across R198 is measured accurately throughout
the Defib pulse waveform.
Note
A mains-powered Defibrillator is required to provide complete isolation, or
“float,” from the Defib connections to earth ground. If the defibrillator
being tested does not float due to a ground fault on one of the Defib leads,
and at the same time the Analyzer is not floating because the grounded ac
mains adapter/charger is being used, the Analyzer will give incorrect
results due to internal analog clipping, gain distortion, or both.
The required high voltage attenuation and voltage differencing starts with a series string,
or “stick,” of resistors connected to each side of R198. These resistors are R34 through
R59, with 13 resistors per stick.
There are two more resistor sticks, one attached to each end of R198. These sticks consist
of resistors R8 through R20 and R21 through R33. While all four sticks provide
attenuation, the first two are used to deliver the Defib waveform to the ADC input circuit.
The second two are used to deliver an Analyzer-generated ECG signal to the Defib output
for ECG-on-Defib type defibrillator testing.
The lower resistance sticks are driven by U77 on the main PCA. The higher resistance
sticks go to the Defib input buffer/amplifier differencing circuit, which consists of U87
and related components also on the main PCA.

Defibrillator Input Buffer/Amplifier

The Defib input buffer/amplifier differencing circuit is on the main PCA. The two
voltages to be differenced come from the Defib input high voltage attenuator resistor
sticks through the 20-pin ribbon cable. Two clip test points, TP28 and TP29, and the two
ICT test pads, E32 and E33, provide access to the Defib differencing input at a point
where a low voltage input/output is available for making calibration measurements.
Relay K2 and resistors R60 through R63 work with the HV resistor sticks to form a
selectable attenuator. When the relay contacts are closed, the Defib input has a base
attenuation of approximately ÷525; this mode is used for measuring high-voltage
Defibrillator pulses. When the relay contacts are open, the Defib input is scaled for much
lower input levels for measuring Pacer-on-Defib-input signals. The relay is set in advance
based on the operational mode selected by the user (i.e., Defibrillator or Pacer analysis).
Op-amp U90 is used to generate the ±2.5 V supplies for the Defib input buffer/amplifier
circuits. The ±2.5 V supply is very nearly a copy of the ECG DAC power supply circuit
built around op-amp U2.
Analog switches U14 and U13 together with resistors R66-R81 form a fast-ranging
circuit that is used to “auto-range” on the user’s input.
There are four ranges for the Defib-input mode, and four ranges for the pacer-on-Defib-
input mode; for each mode, the ranges are a factor of approximately five apart. For Defib
input modes, only the three upper ranges are used; for Pacer-on-Defib input modes, only
the three lowest ranges are used.
A level shifting circuit consisting of Q40, Q41 and nearby resistors, all on the main PCA,
is used to drive analog switches U14 and U13, changing the DSP’s +3.3 V output logic
level to ±2.5 V.

Pacer Input Selectable Load

The optional Pacer input is on the display PCA. The Pacer input primarily measures input
current. The current is measured by sensing the voltage drop across R252-R255, a
series/parallel combination of four 50 Ω resistors that create one higher power 49.9 Ω
resistor. Protection for the Pacer input buffer/amplifier circuit is provided by TVS diodes
VR2 and VR6 along with 100 Ω resistors R444 and R445 to limit current. The Pacer
input lines connect to the Pacer input buffer/amplifier on the main board through the 20-
pin ribbon cable.
The Pacer input is brought to the display PCA by straps MP6 and MP7. Maximum Pacer
input current is specified to be no more than 250 mA and Pacer input voltage no more
than a few hundred volts. The energy in a defibrillation pulse would destroy the Pacer
input, so spark gap Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) E16 is used to clamp the voltage to a non-
destructive level.
The array of resistor and relay contacts form the selectable Pacer load. The load can be
varied from 50 Ω to 1600 Ω by opening or closing a combination of relay contacts.

Pacer Input Buffer/Amplifier

The Pacer signal goes from the selectable load circuit on the display board to the Pacer
input buffer/difference amplifier on the Main board via the 20-pin ribbon cable.
The Pacer input difference amplifier and ranging circuits consist of op-amp U88, analog
switches U34 and U35, and nearby resistors. Unlike the Defib input, the Pacer input does
not have a relay for mode selection, and unlike the Defib input with its 5x spacing
between ranges, the Pacer input ranges are approximately 4x between adjacent ranges.
Otherwise, the functioning of the two circuits is the same. The Pacer input

2-4
Theory of Operation
ADC Input Level Shifting 2
buffer/amplifier circuit uses the same ±2.5 V supplies. Diodes CR3 and CR4 clamp the
Pacer input voltages to the same levels as the Defib input. Since the Pacer input and the
Defib input are never both required at the time for measurements, the two share auto-
ranging lines.

ADC Input Level Shifting

The previously described Defib and Pacer input amplifier/buffer circuits produce an
output voltage in the range ±2.5 V, centered on 0 V. The ADC has a 0 V to +5 V input
range, centered on +2.5 V. The inputs are level-shifted with dual op-amp U73 and nearby
resistors and capacitors. The signal labeled +2.5 V_REF is actually +1.25 V. Op-amp
U73 is configured for a gain of -1 on the inverting input, and a gain of +2 on the non-
inverting input, changing the +1.25 V level shift input into +2.5 V at the level-shifter
outputs. The output of this level shifting circuit goes to the ADC input MUX.

ADC Input MUX and ADC

The input to the ADC is selected by analog multiplexer U15 on the main PCA. The level
shifted Defib and Pacer signals can be selected, as well as +2.5 V_REF and circuit
common, the latter two for self-test purposes. The ADC uses +5 V supply and a +5 V
reference input to configure it for a +2.5 ±2.5 V input range (0 to 5 V).

Reference Circuit
The Analyzer uses several reference voltages. The most accurate of these are derived
from the +2.5 V RAW reference voltage generated by U33 on the main PCA.
Dual op-amp U69 doubles the +2.5 V reference to create two +5 V references. +5
V_REF1 is used for the ADC and for the input circuits that drive the ADC. +5 V_REF2
is used by the simulated Pacer pulse generation circuit.
R689, R690 and R691 form a ÷4 voltage divider to generate a +1.25 V reference from
+5 V_REF1. Analog switch U86 is used to connect the +1.25 V reference voltage,
labeled +2.5 V_REF on the schematic for convenience, to an alternate voltage source, the
Pacer output DAC, for testing purposes.

ECG Signal Generation

The ECG Signal Generation circuits are on the main PCA. In Lead I configuration the RL
lead is the reference for the other nine physical leads and is connected to circuit common
through an approximately 500 Ω resistor. The three remaining limb leads RA, LL, and
LA, sum to zero at any point in the ECG waveform. One of the limb leads can be derived
from two other limb leads. LA is derived from RA and LL (as LA = - RA - LL) by op-
amp U3 and nearby resistors. Of the ten physical leads provided, only eight distinct
signals need be generated by octal DAC U12. With the implementation of firmware
version 1.03, a Lead II configuration becomes default, with Lead I still available as a
selection.
The digital control lines for U12 (ODAC_DIN, ODAC_SCLK and ODAC_/SYNC) form
a logic level shifting circuit. The rest of the circuitry around the octal DAC U12 scales
the ECG output amplitude over a 100-to-one range. This scaling is done in two stages,
each providing a factor of ten. The first stage provides a scale factor of ÷1, ÷10, or any
factor in between. The second stage provides a fixed scale factor of ÷1 or ÷10, with no
choices in between. Since the two stages operate independently, together they allow a
continuous scaling factor from ÷1 to ÷100.
The first ECG scaling stage scales the ECG outputs over a relatively continuous range of
÷1 to ÷10. The scale factor is set by the ECG_AMPL_PWM control line. This line is
controlled by a pulse-width modulation circuit inside the DSP. For the ÷1 setting, this
2-5
Impulse 6000D, 7000DP
Service Manual

line is constantly high; for the ÷10 setting, this line is pulsed high 10 % of the time and is
low 90 % of the time. For testing, in the DSP <DIAG> mode, the <ECGPWM=1500>
command sets the ECG_AMPL_PWM line modulation to 100 %, or always high;
<ECGPWM=0150> sets the modulation to 10 %; <ECGPWM=0000> sets the
modulation to 0 %, or always low.
The ECG_AMPL_PWM line controls analog switch U22. This SPDT switch converts the
digital PWM signal to an accurate analog voltage level, +2.5 V for high and 0 V for low.

ECG-on-Defib Output
Op-amp U3 and nearby resistors, on the main PCA, create the lead II ECG signal that is
used to drive the ECG-on-Defib signal. The +PACO signal is also fed into U3 through
R173 and is a simulated Pacer output pulse.

Pacer Pulse Generation

A waveform is generated for certain measurements that simulate pacemaker pulses, and
is added into the various ECG signals; this circuit resides on main PCA. The waveform is
generated as a train of simple on/off rectangular waves of selectable amplitude. This is
controlled by DSP line PACOP, which selects either a dc level (on), or ground (off). The
dc level is generated by DAC U18.
DAC U18 creates a dc level that can range from 0 V to +5 V. Op-amp U19 and nearby
resistors convert the 0 V to +5 V signal to a -5 V to +5 V output. Some of the ECG leads
use +PACO, while others use -PACO. The output of DAC U18 can also be fed to the
reference circuit, via signal PACODAC_RAW, for self-test purposes.

ECG Output Posts Resistor Networks

The ECG output signals and the Pacer output pulse signal come together on the ECG
board.
Each ECG output post has a dedicated resistor network. One requirement for this network
is to provide an output impedance of 500 Ω to common, which yields an output
impedance of 1000 Ω from any one post to any other post. A second requirement is to
attenuate the ±2.5 V ECG signals down to ±5 mV. A third requirement is to add the Pacer
pulse to each ECG post signal with the proper polarity and correct ratio between posts. A
fourth requirement is to scale the Pacer pulse from very low (millivolt) levels to relatively
high levels of ±1 V, requiring the use of a selectable 10-to-1 attenuator for Pacer pulse
insertion.
An RFI filter is included at each ECG post output, consisting of two ferrite beads and a
capacitor.

DSP Processor
The Analyzer uses two microprocessors. The digital signal processor (DSP) is U5 on the
main PCA. The DSP requires two power supply voltages, +3.3 V and +1.8 V. The
relationship between the +3.3 V and +1.8 V supplies must be controlled during power-up
and power-down. This is accomplished by the digital power supply circuits. The DSP
reset line <XRS> is held low (in reset) by supervisor ICs U78 and U79 until both the
+3.3 V and +1.8 V power supplies are valid. The DSP reset pin can also be forced low by
the <DSP_RST> line from the UI processor via Q10.
The 30 MHz clock input to the DSP is provided by oscillator U7. The accuracy of this
oscillator determines the accuracy of the timing measurements.
The <BATTGG> and <BATTGG-BUFF> lines, along with Schmidt trigger inverter U85,
are used by the DSP to communicate with the battery pack over a single bi-directional
line.
2-6
Theory of Operation
UI Processor 2
UI Processor
The User Interface microprocessor (AVR) is U2 on the display PCA and is powered by a
single +3.3 V power supply voltage. Supervisor IC U79 ensures that the AVR is held in
reset until the +3.3 V supply is valid.
The AVR scans the keyboard for key presses. It sequentially sets one of the keyboard
“rows” low and reads the “columns” to determine if a key is pressed.
The power on/off key is not scanned, but has a direct connection to several circuits.
Schmitt trigger inverter U78 can shut down the Analyzer in a controlled manner.
Supervisor IC U80 holds the display in reset until the +3.3 V supply is valid. If this is not
done, the display comes up with a corrupted screen and requires a power cycle to clear
the corruption.
Temperature sensor U46 turns the fan on without processor assistance when the
temperature near the Defib load resistor R198 reaches 40 °C. A second threshold at
around 50 °C is used to signal an over-temperature condition to the AVR processor so it
can stop making user measurements. The <FORCE_FAN> line from the AVR is used to
turn the fan on via a remote interface command to test the fan in production.

On/Off Controller
On/off push button controller U89 manages the on/off behavior and is on the main PCA.
Pushing the on/off button on the front panel pulls the <PB> pin low. U89 responds by
setting the <EN/EN> pin low.
The U89 <EN/EN> pin drives the </ON> line which turns on the digital power supplies.
U89 ignores the </KILL> pin for a half second but if the </KILL> input is not high
before the half second elapses, U89 will set the <EN/EN> line high again, turning off the
digital power supplies. This means the +3.3 V digital supply must ramp up to valid level
within the first half second after the on/off button is pressed. The supervisor IC must
release the AVR reset line, the AVR must complete its power-up firmware sequence and
assert the power-OFF line low. If this is not done, the power-up will fail and the Analyzer
will turn back off. If a particular Analyzer powers up very briefly then shuts off, check
TP97 <KILL> to make sure it is getting set low less than a half-second after pressing the
power button.
During normal operation, the AVR will sense the on/off button and then assert the
<POWER_OFF> line high to power-down. However, should the AVR firmware hang or
for some other reason fail to respond to the on/off button press, pressing and holding the
on/off button for a few seconds will cause U89 to override the </KILL> input and force
the <EN/EN> output high, turning off the supplies immediately.
U89 serves one more important purpose. The </KILL> pin uses a low-input-current
comparator with an accurate 0.6 V threshold. The </KILL> input thus serves as a fail-
safe to prevent the battery from being over-discharged, which can damage the battery.

Battery Drain Circuit

The Battery Drain circuit draws a significant current from the battery even with an
external charger/adapter supplying DC power. This “trains” the battery or re-
synchronizes the gas-gauge inside the battery pack with the actual charge state of the
battery. The battery pack’s gas gauge is automatically re-synchronized when the battery
voltage falls to the “Almost Empty” voltage threshold, approximately 6 V.
For the NiMH battery chemistry, the battery voltage is fairly constant until the battery
charge is almost depleted, at which point the battery voltage drops quickly with further
discharge. The battery pack’s gas-gauge will get out-of-sync with the true battery charge

2-7
Impulse 6000D, 7000DP
Service Manual

state with multiple partial charge/discharge cycles. The gas gauge will also get out-of-
sync if the Analyzer is left off for over a month without the charger connected, or if the
battery sits in inventory for over a month. The reason for this is that the battery pack
attempts to account for self-discharge, and the self-discharge rate estimate is now too
high due to improvements in NiMH battery chemistry since the gas-gauge IC was
designed.
The battery drain circuit uses MOSFET Q42 on the main PCA as a constant current
source for a low impedance, dissipating most of the power as heat. Heat sink MP6 on
Q42 helps dissipate the heat. In addition, the firmware turns on the fan to further cool
Q42, keeping its temperature rise to a minimum.
W Caution
To avoid shorting out the battery, exercise care around heat
sink MP6 when troubleshooting. The heat sink is at positive
battery potential even when the Analyzer is powered off.

USB Interface
A USB interface for remote operation is provided at connector J5 on the main PCA.
When probing the USB circuit, measurements should be referenced to <GNDT> instead
of circuit common. <GNDT> is accessible at TP8.

Isolated I/O Interface

Two dedicated BNC output ports are galvanically isolated from circuit common, but not
from each other; they share an isolated ground <GNDBA>, available at TP13. One BNC
provides an amplified version of the millivolt-level ECG outputs on the ECG posts and
Defib inputs. The second BNC replays a scaled replica of the captured Defib pulse
waveform. These BNC output signals are suitable for viewing on an oscilloscope or
waveform recorder. The purpose of the isolation is to keep noise from the external
devices from coupling into measurement circuits.
Signal DACs U16 and U17 are serial input. Additional filtering is used at the <VREF>
input pin of each DAC to reduce noise.
The two signal DACs have a 0 V to +4.5 V output voltage range. Dual op-amp U20, an
Analog Devices OP279, level shifts this output range down by 2.25 V so that the output
signal range is centered at isolated ground.
TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diodes VR9 through VR12 protect U20 from ESD
damage as well as from customer-applied abuse voltages (of limited power) on the BNC
outputs. Capacitors C200, and C255 through C257 improve EMC performance. Spark
gaps E16 and E116 improve ESD immunity.

Digital Power Supplies

When powered on, the digital supplies +3.3 V and +1.8 V come up first. The digital
supplies are generated by switching regulator U63 and nearby components on the main
PCA. This switcher is powered by <VBATT>. U63 is a dual switcher; the right and left
sides of U63 control different output voltages. The components for the two supplies are
largely identical. The DSP uses both the +1.8 V and +3.3 V supplies and requires that the
two supplies come up in order, with the +3.3 V supply ahead of the +1.8 V supply. The
digital supply is required to operate properly from a low battery of around +5 V to a high
voltage of greater than +15 V when the external charger is connected.

Analog Power Supplies

The analog power supplies are built around switcher IC U64 and transformer T1 on the

2-8
Theory of Operation
Battery Charger 2
main PCA. Transformer T1 has four secondary windings, used to generate ±6 V and
±13 V.

Battery Charger
The battery and battery charging circuit is on the main PCA. The +15 Vdc external power
comes in on J4. Over-current protection is provided by resetable PTC fuse F2.
When the external charger is present, input power is steered to the power supply circuits.
External charger voltage is well above the highest battery voltage and cuts off current
flow out of the battery. When the external charger is not present, the battery provides
power to the power supply circuits, and battery current flow out of the dc input jack J4 is
prevented.
R422 is used with U71 and op-amp U68 to monitor operating current via a DSP ADC
channel. This feature should be a useful troubleshooting tool. The other half of dual op-
amp U68 is used to sense the battery voltage via another DSP ADC channel. Supervisor
IC U81 is used to sense whether the external charger is present.
The battery charge controller IC monitors several battery parameters during battery
charging to properly sequence through the charge cycle. The battery voltage is sensed at
the <BAT> pin of U66 via a thermistor built into the battery pack. Battery charging
current is sensed at the <SNS> pin of U66. Op-amp U1 amplifies the charging current
sense voltage so it can be read via a DSP ADC channel. This is a useful troubleshooting
signal. The <CHARGE_EN> signal enables battery charging during operation. The
<BATGG> line is used to communicate with the “gas gauge” IC build into the battery
pack.
When battery charger IC U66 first enters charge mode, it flashes the red half of LED DS1
to indicate charge pending. This flashing normally lasts just a few seconds, but it can
continue indefinitely if U66 determines that some parameter is outside the allowable
range for battery charging, such as battery voltage or battery temperature too high or too
low. When U66 determines that conditions are correct for battery charging, the flashing
red LED turns solid red. For the first ten minutes or so of charging, U66 allows only a
220 mA to flow into the battery. After ten minutes, U66 goes into fast charge mode and
the current jumps to 1.75 A. The fast-charge mode can last up to 2.5 hours before it times
out. U66 monitors several other battery parameters to determine when the battery is fully
charged (or if conditions are no longer acceptable for continuing battery charge, such as
temperature too high). A sudden increase in battery voltage over a short period of time
indicates the end of fast charge. When the fast charge phase ends, the LED turns solid
green and U66 enter the "top-off" phase, where the charging current drops to 220 mA for
35 minutes. After the top-off phase, U66 enters the "trickle-charge" phase, where the
charge current drops to 6.8 mA. U66 stays in the trickle-charge phase and the LED
remains solid green until the external charger is no longer present or charging is disabled.
If the charge cycle is interrupted and then re-enabled, the charge cycle starts again from
the beginning. When the battery charge cycle is started on a fully charged battery,
typically the LED will return to solid green within 15 minutes.
It should be noted that battery charging currents less than the fast charge rate, about
1.75 A, are achieved by pulsing the fast-charge mode on for a period of time, then off for
a period of time. This is done because NiMH battery chemistry does not tolerate low-
level DC charging currents very well. One easy way to monitor the battery charging cycle
is to “sniff” the current in inductor L5 using a loop of wire connected to a scope probe.
The current draw from the external charger, as measured by an ammeter, is also a useful
measure, but because the battery charger is a switcher, this current differs somewhat from
the battery charging current.
The battery pack has a built-in gas gauge IC to monitor the battery charge remaining
2-9
Impulse 6000D, 7000DP
Service Manual

during use. Unlike the gas gauge in a car, which directly senses the level in the gas tank,
the battery gas gauge can not directly sense battery charge. Instead, it monitors the
current into and out of the battery and keeps a running tally of milliamp-hours remaining.
The battery capacity is specified to be a minimum of 3500 milliamp-hours when new (it
degrades with the number of charge/discharge cycles).
Because the gas gauge can only indirectly monitor battery charge, it gradually gets out-
of-sync with true battery charge. The gas gauge attempts to keep track of the self-
discharge of the NiMH battery cells, compensating for temperature (the self-discharge
rate rises quickly with increasing temperature). One consequence of this is that the gas
gauge IC significantly over-estimates the self-discharge, and the gas gauge in an idle
battery pack will become significantly out-of-sync with true battery charge in a week or
two.
An out-of-sync gas gauge will have more or less operating time than indicated. A
problem occurs when the battery pack sits for a few weeks unused, and the gas gauge is
significantly lower than true battery charge. When this happens, the gas gauge will not
recover to 100 % after a full charge.
The gas gauge can be reset by completely discharging the battery pack, then charging it
up again. Complete discharge is determined by the gas gauge IC in the battery pack by
measuring the battery voltage. Battery voltage is relatively flat for most of the discharge
period, but drops quickly as the battery nears empty. The battery pack, BP7235, uses six
NiMH cells. Each cell has a nominal voltage of 1.2 V, giving the battery pack a nominal
voltage of 7.2 V. The battery pack voltage typically rises as high as 9.5 V to 10 V near
the end of the fast charge period. It quickly drops and stays within a volt of 7.2 V for the
majority of the discharge period. The “almost empty” flag is set by the gas gauge IC at
just over 6 V and the gas gauge is forced to 0 %.
The “empty” flag is set at just under 6 V; discharging the battery past this point (lower
than 5 V to 5.5 V) can permanently damage it.
The process of completely discharging and then charging the battery pack is called
"retraining the battery." The retraining does not correct anything in the battery cells.
Instead, the retraining is done solely to get the gas gauge back in sync with true battery
charge. A "Battery Train" accomplishes the discharge/charge cycle overnight.
During battery charging, the gas gauge IC stops counting at 100 %. During discharge, the
gas gauge IC stops counting down at 0 %. The percentage number is relative to initial
battery capacity. If the capacity of an old, heavily used battery has dropped to
1750 milliamp-hours, the gas gauge will not read above 50 % even after retraining.
If the Analyzer will remain idle for a few weeks or more, keep it plugged into the charger
to overcome the self-discharge of the NiMH battery pack. This keeps the battery pack
fully charged and the gas gauge at 100 %. However, since the self-discharge estimation
of the battery pack is highly temperature dependent, if stored in a hot environment above
40 °C or 104 °F, it is possible that the battery could lose charge or the gas gauge could
drop, or both, even with the external charger plugged in.

Verification Procedure
The following steps make up the procedure for verifying the operation of the Analyzer
and coincide with the verification datasheet found on Appendix A.
1. Battery Testing
Prior to running the verification steps, check the battery as follows:
a. Turn on the Analyzer; verify that the Analyzer briefly displays the current
software revision.
b. Press Q, press A “Battery”. Verify the battery is at 90 % or greater. If not,
charge battery overnight.
c. Plug in the battery charger. Verify the CHARGE STATUS light responds (rapid
red blinking followed by solid red for charging) and that the battery indicator in
the upper right corner of the display has changed to the AC adapter symbol.
d. Press X “Done”, press X “Exit.”
e. Turn off the Analyzer and disconnect the battery charger from the Analyzer.
2. Verification Steps
The verification steps consists of sending commands to the Analyzer from the PC and
then recording the response from the Analyzer’s operation. The Analyzer should be
operating in battery power only for the first portion of this test. Perform the following
to establish PC to Analyzer communications:
a. Connect the USB cable from the PC to the Analyzer.

Remote Operation
Introduction 5
Introduction
The Analyzer is designed for remote operation by sending it commands through its
computer port. Measurement data and command responses are returned through the
computer port for computer or user analysis. This remote capability can be employed to
automate the verification, calibration, and troubleshooting procedures described in this
manual.
Extensive automation can be realized by writing a computer program that sends
commands to the Analyzer and evaluates the responses to generate a user report. Or,
individual commands can be typed and responses read using a program such as
Hyperterminal. The degree of automation is up to the users needs.
This chapter describes how to connect and setup the Analyzer for remote operation. Also
included is a complete list of valid commands, each with a functional description, proper
command syntax, Analyzer response, associated command parameters, and examples. A
set of diagnostic commands are also included to help isolate problems in some functions
and circuits while troubleshooting the Analyzer.

Remote Modes
Some commands set special modes and others are only legal in certain modes. These
modes are listed in Table 5-1.

Table 5-1. Analyzer Remote Modes

Mode Mnemonic Description

MAIN Main remote mode

DEFIB Measure defib pulses

PAPULSE Measure pacer pulse parameters

PASENSE Test pacer sensitivity

PAREFRACT Measure pacer refractory periods

ECG Simulate ECG waves

ECGPACED Simulate ECG interactively with pacer

ECGPERF Simulate ECG waves for performance testing

ECGNOISE Simulate noise on ECG

DIAG Diagnostic tests

CAL Calibrate the instrument

Pacer Option
There is one option for the Impulse: PACER. If the PACER (PACER=ON) option is
installed, it can be automatically detected by the UI hardware. This option must be set
during calibration.
Commands for pacer functions require that the PACER option is installed and are so
specified. If it is not installed, the DSP will return the !06 response.

Serial Communication Connections

When unprogrammed devices are connected to a PC, they look different to Windows.
Without intervention, Windows will enumerate each device separately.
5-3
Impulse 6000D, 7000DP
Service Manual

To force Windows to ignore the serial numbers of FT232R devices, add a registry setting.
Edit the registry to add an entry at:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\UsbFlags\".
Add a REG_BINARY entry "IgnoreHWSerNum04036001".
Set the binary value to "01".
Refer to FTDI Application Note AN232B-10 "Advanced Driver Options".
Note
This only works if you add the registry entry before connecting any FTDI
devices. You might have to uninstall FTDI device drivers with their
"FTCLEAN" utility. Then reload the drivers.
You can force Windows (2000, XP, and above) to use the LocId of the USB port so all
FTDI devices on a port are assigned to the same COM port number. Refer to FTDI
Application Note AN232B-07 "Configuring FTDI's VCP Drivers to use Location IDs".
Note
If you properly set IgnoreHWSerNum04036001 as described above, you
shouldn't have to use LocId.

Command Specifications
The following sections list the available commands which remotely control the Anaylzer.
The commands are divided into the following functional analyzer categories: General,
Global Setup, Defib Mode, Pacer Pulse, Pacer Sensitivity, Pacer Refractory, ECG Noise,
ECG, ECG Paced, ECG Performance, and Diagnostic commands.

Calibration Commands
When calibrating the Analyzer through remote control, keep the following in mind:
• All cal data are 16 bit numbers
• Offsets are signed numbers
• ADC readings are signed numbers with 0 being the center of the 14-bit ADC.
• All items other than offsets are positive numbers, the absolute value of the ADC
reading or measured quantity.
• DSP boards, rev 5 and up, have an additional inverting stage to both the defib
and pacer amplifiers. On these boards, the ADC readings are negated in software
to make them positive for positive input.
Primary Cal Data
The Primary Cal Data are the direct result of performing calibration steps. The Primary
Cal Data array is stored in the non-volatile UI EEPROM so it is available every time the
unit powers up.
Secondary Cal Data
To get more convenient numbers for measurement and simulation calculation, the
Secondary Cal Data is calculated from the primary data on every power-up. Whenever
one or more Cal Steps have been performed, the Secondary Cal Data should be re-
calculated so that the new data can be used.

Impulse 7010 Selectable Load

Introduction
The Impulse 7010 Selectable Defibrillator Load (hereafter the Load) provides multiple
loads of 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, and 200 ohms for testing defibrillators. In
conjunction with an Impulse 7000DP Defibrillator Analyzer, it is designed for
performance testing of defibrillators. It is not intended to be used for calibration of
medical equipment.
XW Warning
To avoid possible electrical shock or personal injury, follow these
guidelines:
• Use this Load only in the manner specified by the manufacturer or
the protection provided may be impaired.
• Read the Instruction Sheet before operating the Load.
• Do not use the Load if it operates abnormally.
• Do not use the Load in damp or wet locations, around explosive
gases or dust.
• Observe all precautions noted by the Device Under Test (DUT)
equipment manufacturer when analyzing the DUT.
• Use extreme caution when working with voltages above 30 volts.
This appendix covers the verification of Load operation in conjunction with an Impulse
7000DP Analyzer.

Required Equipment
Table C-1 lists the test equipment required to verify Load operation to its specifications.

Service Manual

Verification Procedure
This section contains performance tests to verify the Load is operating within published
specifications. The verification procedure can be performed both periodically and after
service or repair.
Setup
Perform the following steps in preparation for verifying the performance of the Load:
1. Connect the Load to the Analyzer in accordance with the Users Manual. Connect the
digital multimeter (DMM) to the Load with a test lead from the Input HI terminal of
the DMM to the Apex (+) jack of the Load. Connect another test lead between the
Source HI of the DMM to the Apex (+) jack of the load.
Note
A stacking banana test lead works well for this dual connection to a single
jack.
2. Next, connect a test lead between the Input LO terminal of the DMM to the Sternum
(-) jack of the Load. Connect another test lead between the Source LO of the DMM
and the Sternum jack (-) of the Load.
Figure C-1 shows the connections between the DMM and the Load.
3. On the DMM, select the 4-wire ohms function and set its range to 100 Ω.

2. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 50 Ω and record the DMM reading.
3. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 75 Ω and record the DMM reading.
4. Set the range of the DMM to 1 kΩ.
5. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 100 Ω and record the DMM reading.
6. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 125 Ω and record the DMM reading.
7. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 150 Ω and record the DMM reading.
8. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 175 Ω and record the DMM reading.
9. Set the rotary switch on the Load to 200 Ω and record the DMM reading.
Remove the DMM connections from the Load and connection the Zoll defibrillator to the
Load as shown in Figure C-2. Follow the instructions in the Impulse 7010 Instruction
Sheet to setup the Impulse 7000DP and the Load to measure discharge energy from a
defibrillator using a 100 Ω load resistor setting.
