2. Select the SENSOR softkey option.
3. View sensor event record in either the graphical form (GRAPH) or in a summary table
(TABLE).
Note:
Once the sensor event record type is setup in the OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor and the
event data is stored in the sensor, the sensor event record type cannot be reset. The
oximeter’s type set up can be changed at any time.
Managing Non-graphical Sensor Event Record Data
When an OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor containing patient alarm data
(single-patient-use sensors only) is connected to the oximeter, the Sensor Event
Record indicator on the oximeter front panel blinks at a medium priority flash rate to
indicate that the OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor attached to the oximeter contains
patient event data. The front panel blinks for approximately 60 seconds, until the
OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor is disconnected, or until the user obtains sensor trend
data by pressing TREND, then SENSOR.
To obtain available Sensor Event Record data
1. Press the TREND softkey.
2. Press the SENSOR softkey. A corresponding “DATA IN SENSOR” message displays at the
bottom of the oximeter screen. After four to six seconds, if the oximeter successfully reads
all the data from the sensor, the oximeter returns to the main menu.

If data is still being read from the OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor after four to six seconds,
the DATA IN SENSOR message is replaced with a READING TRENDS message which
includes an ABORT option.
