standard or measurement averaging mode (MAM)
This instrument enables you to select either standard (single
measurement) or measurement averaging mode (automatic
triple measurement).
a) With the unit off, press the TIME button and hold for 3
seconds, the screen will show the current mode.
b) Press the “M” button to switch between standard and
averaging mode.
c) To select Standard mode, select off.
d) To select Averaging mode, select on.
If you select off, then only one measurement will be taken. If
you select on, the unit will inflate and deflate three times
resulting in one final average.
4.8. Measurement averaging mode technology (MAM)
• In Measurement Averaging Mode (MAM), three measurements are automatically
taken in succession and the result is then automatically analyzed and displayed.
Because your blood pressure constantly fluctuates, a result determined in this way is
more reliable than one produced by a single measurement.
• After pressing the START/STOP button the selected Measurement Averaging Mode
appears in the display as the MAM symbol.
• The bottom, right-hand section of the display shows a 1, 2 or 3 to indicate which of
the 3 measurements is currently being taken.
