The Pacer Control Panel

The CodeMaster XL+ with the optional pacer can perform external transcutaneous
pacing. The pacing option provides demand (synchronous) and fixed
(asynchronous) pacing modes. The patient is connected to the pacer by external
adhesive pads. The patient can be paced and defibrillated through the same set of
pads.

the patient to prevent electrical shock.
Use only HP recommended pads (M1749A) with the external
pacer option. The CodeMaster XL+ delivers pacer pulses through
a low-impedance multifunction pad. The CodeMaster XL+ does
not pace effectively with high-impedance, pace-only electrodes.
Do not use pads for more than eight hours of continuous pacing.
