DAC-530E-EN-BH
The DDC is inserted into a slot above the battery pack opening in the AED - refer to the “Installing
the Data Card” section. A new and initialized DDC card should be used each time the AED is
operated to maximize recording time. A new event file is created on the DDC each time the AED
is turned on and the following information is recorded (DDC cards may contain a maximum of 255
event files):
• The time the AED was turned on.
• Other data such as: ECG data, time data, audio data (audio enabled card only).
• Event milestones such as: motion detection, shock advice, shock delivery information.
When an audio enabled DDC gets low on available storage, the AED will stop recording the less
critical audio data to allow room for additional ECG data in an attempt to record at least one hour
of ECG (total recording time is limited by available space on the DDC). Data from a previous event
will NOT be erased. If the DDC fills completely, the AED will still be operable and the most critical
event documentation for the current session is still recorded internally.
Internally recorded event information can be downloaded for external review by inserting a
blank DDC card into the unit. The DDC slot is located just inside the battery pack opening. For
instructions on how to install and remove a DDC card, see Section 3.2 (“Installing the Data Card”)
of this manual. To download data from the card, refer to Section 7.2 (“Downloading the Internal
Data Log”).
