3. Operating the X-PLOR
The X-PLOR offers pulse dose and a No Breath Detected Mode (continuous flow).
Pulse Dose Mode:
Pulse dose is designed to work with a patient’s inhaling and exhaling patterns. It senses
a change in air pressure and releases a pulse of air, also known as a bolus, through a
nasal cannula. Once a breath is detected, a breath icon (icon) will appear in the upper
left corner of the LCD screen. This icon will appear each time a breath is detected and a
pulse of oxygen is delivered.
Use the UP/DOWN buttons to set the oxygen flow level (1-3). In X-PLORATION MODE
(Setting 4), the X-PLOR will deliver 750ml/min via Pulse Dose Mode for 10 minutes before
reverting to Setting 3 (635ml/min).
No Breath Detected Mode (Continuous Flow):
If the X-PLOR does not detect a breath from the user for 45 seconds, a No Breath Detect
alarm icon will display and an alarm (beep) will sound. After another 45 seconds if a new
breath is not detected, the X-PLOR will go into No Breath Detected Mode (750ml/min
continuous flow) for 3 minutes before shutting down. To revert to the Pulse Dose Mode,
press the UP/DOWN button on the X-PLOR to exit No Breath Detected Mode.

NOTIFICATIONS
The X-PLOR has only one type of alarm (an icon on the display combined with an audible
tone): that arises when monitored equipment functions indicate that the user’s attention
is required. Alarm notifications are audible at levels ranging from 65 dB(A) to 85 dB(A),
depending on the equipment condition and the user’s position. The maxium distance that
the user can move away from the POC is determined by the surrounding noise level.
ALARMS
X-PLOR monitors various parameters during operation and utilizes an intelligent alarm
system to indicate a malfunction of the POC. Mathematical algorithms and time delays are
used to reduce the probability of false alarms while still ensuring proper notification of an
alarm condition. All alarms are classified as Low Priority technical alarm condition.
The following alarm messages are accompanied by a sound and a yellow . If the
suggested procedures does not clear the alarm condition, switch to a backup source of
oxygen and contact your equipment provider.
