Unexpected Response:
Any other response indicates a problem with the transceiver or lead
set.
•
Check the leadset connection. The colored line should not be
visible; otherwise the wrong leadset type may be detected.
•
If the INOP, INVALID LEADSET, and the corresponding
audible tone occur, the leadset inserted does not match the
transceiver's configuration . Insert the correct leadset per the
configuration.
•
Use a new leadset.
If the problem is not corrected, contact your service provider.
