SpO2 Functional Tester
Introduction
 Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or
personal injury, read all “safety information”
before you use the Product.
The Fluke Biomedical SPOT Light SpO2 Functional
Tester (the Product) is a compact, portable, functional
tester used to measure the performance of SpO2
monitors (pulse oximeters).
The Product uses light detection and emission to do tests.
The tests examine the electronics of the pulse oximeter
and the sensor.
Table 1 is a list of the symbols used on the Product and in
this manual.

Hazardous voltage.
Conforms to relevant Canadian and US
standards.
Conforms to relevant Australian EMC
requirements.
 Conforms to European Union directives.
Do not dispose of this product as
unsorted municipal waste. Go to Fluke’s
website for recycling information.
Intended Use
The Product is intended to be used to test and verify the
basic operation of patient monitoring devices or systems
used to monitor SpO2. Additionally, the Product provides
an optical signal to verify the electronics inside the pulse
oximeter sensor are functional.
The intended user is a trained biomedical equipment
technician who performs periodic preventative
maintenance checks on patient monitors in service. Users
can be associated with hospitals, clinics, original
equipment manufacturers and independent service
companies that repair and service medical equipment.
The end user is an individual, trained in medical
instrumentation technology.
This Product is not intended for use on patients, or to test
devices while connected to patients. This Product is not
intended to be used to calibrate medical equipment.
Safety Information
A Warning identifies conditions and procedures that are
dangerous to the user. A Caution identifies conditions
and procedures that can cause damage to the Product or
the equipment under test.
 Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or
personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•Do not connect the Product to a patient
or equipment connected to a patient. The
Product is intended for equipment
evaluation only and should never be
used in diagnostics, treatment, or any
other capacity where the Product would
come in contact with a patient.
•Use the Product only as specified, or the
protection supplied by the Product can
be compromised.

•Replace the batteries when the low
battery indicator shows to prevent
incorrect measurements.
•Carefully read all instructions.
•Do not use the Product around explosive
gas, vapor, or in damp or wet
environments.
•Do not use, and disable the Product if it
is damaged.
•Do not use the Product if it operates
incorrectly.
•Use only current probes, test leads, and
adapters supplied with the Product.
Caution
The pulse oximeter component of the device
is not intended to validate the SpO2 accuracy
of pulse oximeter equipment.
This device is not intended to confirm the
SpO2 accuracy of the calibration curve of the
pulse oximeter monitor or to assess the
optical characteristics of representative
pulse oximeter sensors to determine their
proper calibration.
Not all functional testers and pulse oximeter
equipment are compatible. Functional testers
can vary in pulse methods, pulse contours,
and amplitude. A functional tester might not
accurately reproduce the calibration of the
pulse oximeter equipment and can yield
different results between pulse oximeter
equipment.
Unpack the Product
