1 General description
The Service-Mode (DS-Mode) enables the device error messages, which have been saved, to be
read out; with the frequency of errors, the read out of all important measurement values and the
targeted drive of D/A-converters and valves.
Operation takes place by means of a menu control, as is the case for the operating mode. The
individual functions are called up by softkeys. The references, warnings and alarms of the operating
mode are also active in the DS mode and can be ignored with the "Ok", "Confirm" or "Reset/Check"
key. Ignored messages are displayed again after 30 seconds if the reason for this still exists.
1.1 Calling up the DS-Mode

Do not connect any patient circuit system to the insp. and exp. nozzles during call up of diagnosis
mode.
Connect compressed O2 and Air supply (3 to 6 bar / 40 to 87 psi).
Enter service diagnosis mode:
Babylog with SW 5.0:

Press "Confirm" or "OK" and "Alarm silence" keys and switch on device simultaneously. Keep
both keys pressed until first service menu is displayed.
Babylog with SW 2.n, 3.n or 4.n:

Press "Reset/Check" and "Alarm silence" keys and switch on device simultaneously. Keep keys
pressed until first service menu is displayed.
Operation in the service mode is to be confirmed in each case within 2 minutes using the key
"Alarm silence", otherwise restart with error message "823".
The errors "002", "800", "801", "804" "805" or "823" can be ignored in the service mode.
Note: The units of the measurement values can be partially changed in some menus with the
"Cal. Config." (SW 5) or "Monitoring" (SW 2, 3 or 4) key between:
• hexadecimal values
• decimal values
• voltages or standard units (e.g. voltage in mV/V or pressure in mbar/bar/psi/cmH2)
1.2 Left the Service-Mode

The DS-Mode can be left by switching off the Babylog 8000.

3 Service Mode "Error list"
With this function the device errors saved can be read out with the frequency of errors and the error
memory can be cleared. The status of the processor 68000 at the last processor error is saved with
its address in the vector, An error analysis, under some circumstances can be carried out using this
data following a system failure. An important and helpful component in troubleshooting is the error
list of the unit. There are two possible ways to read out error messages:
3.1 Error list

Babylog is in the service mode, press softkeys "Error list".
Use softkeys " ⇓ " and " ⇑ " to read out the error list.
See "Error List" of Babylog 8000 for detailed descriptions of the errors.
Use softkey "Clear" to erase the error list.
Press softkey "Return ".
3.2 Reading out vector

Babylog is in the service mode, press softkeys "Error list" and then "Vector".
Any deviations of the normal operation of the processor 68000 due to errors or error conditions e.g.
bus errors, RESET, address error and interrupts result in the processor carrying out an exception
condition and loads a vector table with a hexadecimal number. This vector number not only informs
the processor that an error or exception has arisen but, in addition to this, also tells it how to react.
This vector is stored with other processor data and can be read out and cleared in the
Babylog 8000.
Note: The vectors with processor data are principally provided to assist in the development
department and electronic workshop.
Use softkey "Clear" to erase the vector list.
Press softkey "Return " twice.

4 Service Mode "User Interface"
4.1 Operating hours

Babylog is in the service mode, press softkeys "Electronics", "User Interface" and then
"1 Operational data".
Reading out the operating hours counter with the possibility of setting. Before renewing the Time-
Keeper RAM on the PCB CPU (every 4 years) this value is to be read out and after renewal to be re-
entered in the Babylog 8000.
Press softkey "Return " three times.
4.2 Output 02 sensor voltage with load test

Two voltages are read out:
• U1 Voltage from the first half of the 02 sensor, read out from master through the PCB I/O and
PCB 02 amplifier.
• U2 Voltage from the second half of the 02 sensor, read out from the PCB Monitor through the
PCB 02 amplifier.
Desired values at 21 Vol. % 02: U1 = U2 = 9.2 mV up to 26.0 mV

Desired values at 100 Vol. % 02: U1 = U2 = 43.6 mV up to 123.6 mV
Difference in voltage permitted: Smaller (U1 + U2) / 8 + 1 mV
Note: The 02 concentration at the sensor is undefined and matches the 0 2 setting before the device
was last switched off. Specification of set values through the pneumatics menu.
Load test by pressing softkey "O2Test":

On the PCB 02 amplifier, the master channel of the 02 sensor is pulled down as a result, the voltage
U1 is noticeable reduced (recognition two channel Dräger 02 sensor). If the voltage U2 is also
reduced, the sensor is not a Dräger sensor (not permissible).

4.3 Output of storage battery voltage with load test
Note: The storage battery remains loaded for 60 seconds after the key "BaTest" (battery test) is
pressed. Desired value for charged battery storage unloaded: U ≥ 9.2 V. When loaded the voltage
only sinks by 0.1 V to 0.2 V for a charged storage battery.
4.4 Keyboard test

For a detailed test instruction refer to "Periodic Manufacturer's Service" (Test Certificate) as of
edition February 2000.
4.5 LED test

Babylog is in the service mode, press softkeys "Electronics", "User Interface", "2 Operational
data", and then "Keyboard and display" and then "LEDs".
In the LED display test all LEDs apart from the alarm LEDs are driven one after another and then
simultaneously.
Press softkey "Return " four times.
4.6 Display test

4.7 Potentiometer test

Press softkey "Return " and then "Meas.".

Two sensor voltages are read out:
U1: Voltage of the first half of the 02 sensor, read out from the master by means of the I/O PCB and
02 amplifier PCB.
U2: Voltage of the second half of the 02 sensor, read out from the Monitoring PCB by means of the
02 amplifier PCB:
• desired values at 21 vol. % 02: U1 = U2 = 9.2 mV up to 26.0 mV

• Difference in voltage permitted: Lower (U1 + U2) / 8 + 1 mV
Press softkey "Return " and then "Set. 1".
O2-conc. = 100
Insp. Flow = 5
Pinsp = 80
Two sensor voltages are read out:
• desired values at 100 vol. % 02: U1 = U2 = 43.6 mV up to 123.6 mV

• Difference in voltage permitted: Lower (U1 + U2) / 8 + 1 mV
Press key "Return " twice
6.1.3 lnspiratory pressure

Relative pressure from the inspiratory pressure sensor, the first value (master measurement) read
out from the I/O PCB and the second measurement value (monitor measurement) read out from the
Monitoring PCB.
Accuracy for master: Measured value ± 3% ±1 mbar.
6.1.4 Expiratory pressure

Relative pressure from the expiratory pressure sensor.

Accuracy: Measured value ± 3% ±1 mbar
6.1.5 Control pressure AIR

Absolute pressure measured behind the pressure reducer AIR at the valve block. The value
displayed in the DS Mode is the absolute pressure. The atmospheric pressure must be subtracted
from this absolute pressure. The result is the relative pressure.
Example:
Displayed value Pair is 2.76 bar, atmospheric pressure is 1.00 bar.
Relative pressure = displayed value – atmospheric pressure = 2,76bar –1.00 bar = 1.76bar
6.1.6 Control pressure O2

Absolute pressure measured behind the pressure reducer O2 at the valve block. The value displayed
in the service mode is the absolute pressure. The atmospheric pressure must be subtracted from
this absolute pressure. The result is the relative pressure.
Example:
Displayed value PO2 is 2.76 bar, atmospheric pressure is 1.00 bar.
Relative pressure = displayed value – atmospheric pressure = 2,76bar –1.00 bar = 1.76bar
6.1.7 P-bias (zero potential) of the airway pressure sensors

Enter service mode, press softkeys "Pneumatics", "Meas." and then "P-bias".

The respiratory system pressure sensors have a P-bias (offset) after being switched on, thus
normally they are in pressure-free state.
Testing value each U = 1.74 V +0.12 V / –0.08 V.
6.1.8 Calibrating O2 and flow sensor

By pressing "V-call" or "02-cal" keys the flow and 02 measurement section can be calibrated. The
calibration in the service mode is identical to the calibration in the operating mode. For the 0 2
measurement section there is a two-point adjustment first with air (21 vol. %) and then with 02 (100
vol. %).
6.2 Service mode pneumatics “Set. 1”

Set the 02 concentration via potentiometer 02 vol. %, flow via potentiometer insp. flow and set the
pressure (drive PEEP/PIP valve) via soft keys.
The potentiometer "Pinsp" must be at its maximum position for high pressure values. Otherwise, if
the Monitoring PCB measures inadmissibly high pressure values, the valve supply voltage will be
switched off. The airway pressure = Pinsp - 0.7 (Pinsp - Pexp) measured by the airway pressure
sensors and the desired value for the PEEP/PIP valve are displayed. The following tests can be
carried out with the Set. 1 menu in connection with the measuring menu:
6.2.1 Testing the pressure regulators and input pressure sensors

6.2.2 Testing the PEEP/PIP valve and current source

Note: Testing output pressure of PEEP/PIP valve electrical triggered. The pressure is depending on
the value of the supply pressure.
Note: First check pressure regulators and input pressure sensors according to test step 6.2.1.
Test set-up:

Only connect compressed Air supply (40 to 87 psi / 3 to 6 bar).
Remove expiratory valve and measure pressure at the right lip seal (expected max. pressure 100
mbar / cmH2O).

Set unit of Pref to decimal values (dec.) by pressing the key "Cal. Config." (SW 5) or "Monitoring"
(SW 2, 3 or 4).
Important: When performing this test PEEP/PIP valve must be in normal installation position;
Babylog is therefore not to be tilted!
Seal off center lip seal with finger (outlet 5a to the injector, see arrow) when performing next
measurements and settings.
Set displayed value of Pref to 0 (= 0 mA) with softkeys " ⇓ " and " ⇑ ".
Read out value PAir in the menu "Meas." and calculate relative supply pressure to PEEP/PIP valve:

Rel. supply pressure to PEEP/PIP valve = Displayed PAir − ambient pressure
The reference pressure gauge must indicate the following test value depending on the calculated
supply pressure to the PEEP/PIP valve:

24.65 psi 1.70 bar - 19.4 ± 3.0 cmH2O - 19.0 ± 3.0 mbar
• Setting the pressure offset of the PEEP/PIP valve:

The pressure offset is set by turning the screw at the bottom of the valve. The control pressure
must be 1.7 bar measured with a reference pressure gauge directly at the PEEP/PIP valve. The
setting value is -19 mbar (±3 mbar), whereby this value is to be checked after knocking the valve
several times and after checking the reference pressure level. It is essential that the valve is
operated in the fixed position. After this offset has been adjusted, the screw is to be secured with
a safety lacquer. The current of the peep source of current must be checked previous to this
however.
Press softkeys "Pneumatics" and then "Set. 1".

6.2.3 Testing current source to PEEP/PIP valve
The current can be measured on the I/O PCB at the test points X3/1 and X3/2 (DGND) as a voltage
drop.
Set unit of Pref to hex. values by pressing the key "Cal. Config." (SW 5) or "Monitoring"
(SW 3 or 4).
Set displayed value of Pref with softkeys " ⇓ " and " ⇑ ".
Info: Conversion ratio: 1 mV = 1 mA.
Desired value Pref Voltage via X3 PCB I/O

0 hex Smaller 5 mV
FFF hex 600 to 680 mV
Possible errors:
Relay K2 defective if no voltage drop is measured. The relay can be bridged by directly placing +5 V
from the testing plug X22/1 (right pin) on the Motherboard PCB (fold away front part) onto the
connection plug for the PEEP/PIP valve X8/1 (front pin). If this is also unsuccessful, there is a fault in
the peep source of current on the I/O PCB.

Permissible voltage difference between U1 and U2 = Lower (U1 + U2) / 8 + 1 mV.
When the Babylog 8000 is switched over from air to O2 calibration gas (via Y1.1) the voltage at the
sensor increases:
Switch off the flow control valve 1 of the 02 valve bank and switch on flow control valve 1 of the air
valve block (nominal value 15 L/min).
Test values for the 02 sensor voltage at 100 vol. % each:

U=U1 x 97 / 21 up to U = U1 x 100 / 21 and

U=U2 x 97 / 21 up to U = U2 x 100 / 21
Note: When the calibration has been successfully completed then no fault exists.
6.3.4 Safety valve Y1.2

Settings are carried out in menu "Set. 1" and "Set 2". The set value to be adjusted is the value
indicated on the reference pressure gauge and is set in menu "Set. 1" with softkeys " ⇑ "
and " ⇓ ".
Test set-up:
Connect reference pressure gauge (expected max. pressure 100 cmH2O) between inspiratory and
expiratory nozzle. Use short ventilation hoses or hoses 7x2.5, 200 mm between nozzles and Y
piece:
O2-conc. = 21
Insp. Flow = 5
Pinsp = 80
Adjust set value on reference pressure gauge to 80.0 cmH2O or 80 mbar

with softkeys " ⇑ " and " ⇓ ".

Switch off safety valve Y1.2 (SaVal).
Test value: The Pressure at the gauge must drop immediately.
7 Special characteristics of micro processor 68000

The Microprocessor 68000 is an asynchronous processor, which - in contrast to a synchronous
processor (e.g. 6802), requires an acknowledgement signal DTACK from the peripherals after each
external read or write access. By means of this DTACK-signal a slow -speed peripheral may be
interfaced to a fast-speed processor. If e.g. PCBs generating a direct DTACK-signal for the CPU
68000 (I/O PCB, Monitoring PCB, Front adapter PCB + Flow PCB) are missing or the DTACK
generation is defective, the processor system cannot operate.
Overall failure
The system does not start after it is switched-on, thus the valves do not switch, continuous acoustic
alarm occurs and undefined display is present. The supply voltages are applied.
The main failure cause is at the:

• CPU 68000 PCB
• I/O PCB
• Monitoring PCB
• Flow PCB
• Front adapter PCB
With this minimum equipment - thus without pneumatics components and front part - the system has
to start.
