OXITEST PLUS 7 OPERATING MANUAL

Position #1 is achieved by simply sliding the 511 sensor onto the tip of the
Oxitest Plus 7
probe, until the sensor just comes to a "stop". Position #1 is a good "starting position", but it is
not the best position as interference from the 511's LEDs can leak around the
Oxitest Plus 7
probe tip to reach the 511's photodiode, upsetting the calibration of the SpO
2
simulation.
Position #2, illustrated below, is preferable since it achieves better optical isolation between the
511's LEDs and photodiode. Position #2 is achieved by pushing the 511 from Position #1 until
the sensor comes to a solid "stop". The lower jaw of the 511 will swing down to accommodate
the probe tip, and the upper jaw will lie flatter along the upper surface of the probe. Try Position
#2 after the pulse oximeter has stabilized for at least 30 seconds in response to the
Oxitest Plus
7
's signal.
