Abstract
A battery-powered medical apparatus including a first memory configured to store a first program, a second memory configured to store a second program, which is different than the first program, and a processor. The processor executes activation of the battery-powered medical apparatus by executing the first program stored in the first memory in response to receiving an activation instruction. In response to the activation failing to complete within a first predetermined period of time, the processor switches from the first program to the second program, and executes the activation of the battery-powered medical apparatus by executing the second program stored in the second memory. The processor then stops power supply from a battery in response to the activation executed by the second program failing to complete within a second predetermined period of time.
