1. Modes of Operation There are two modes of operation for the PATI stand alone mode and external control mode Stand alone Mode The PATI is operating in stand alone mode when tt is first powered on It automatically begins a warm up period and when that is over it displays an idle System Check screen The PATI is then ready for a system check fit testing and other stand alone operations External Control Mode The PATI is operating in external control mode when it is being controlled by FitPro software running on your computer The PATI will also be operating in external control mode when using a product such as TSI s Mask Integrity Test Accessory MITA To start external control mode place the PATI display on the idle System Check screen Connect the PATI to the computer using the USB cable supplied with the 8020M and initiate control from the software When the PATI is in external control mode Locked will be the displayed on the screen Refer to the FitPro Fit Test Software User s Manual located on the CD for more information Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services PMCS 1 Before wl No Items to be inspected Procedure Corrective Action Alcohol Capsule amp Check the cartridge for dirt and other Clean as needed Cartridge foreign matter Alcohol Capsule amp Make certain that the capsule is filled Refill the cartridge with Cartridge with the alcohol when the cartridge is the reagent grade in the capsule2. Prepare Mask and Subject for Fit Test No Smoking in immediate area test subject should not smoke for at least 30 minutes before test Visually inspect mask inside and outside for dirt mud sand powder greasy or oily substances Adjust face piece and tighten head harness Ensure face piece is properly fitted and that no hair is under the sealing surface of the face piece Check that canister is attached This section is specific to testing masks with a drink tube adapter Methods for attaching the PATI to other mask systems will differ lt is important that the mask be clean and free of any loose foreign material prior to conducting a fit test Presence of these substances may affect the face piece seal and result in inaccurate readings 22 Visually inspect both the inside and outside of the mask for dirt mud sand powder and greasy or oily substances The inside of the face piece should be cleaned with a damp sponge and dried with a lint free cloth The outlet valve disk should also be carefully inspected to ensure it is clean and seated properly Attach the drink tube sampling adapter to the drink tube quick disconnect coupling as illustrated DO NOT attach the sample line of PATI to the sampling adapter at this time Note that different masks use different drink tube couplings Drink Tube Sampling Adapter Connected to the Quick Disconnect Coupling When using the red sampling adapter If a distinct sna
