• S
elect the appropriate airway adapter for mainstream or sample line with adapter for
sidestream based on the patient and monitoring situation.
• Connect the sample line with adapter to receptacle (10) in the Patient Panel, or;
• Connect the sample line with adapter to the External Sidestream module and connect the
module to connector (17) in the Patient Panel, or;
• Connect the Mainstream sensor assembled in the airway adapter to connector (17).
• Wait for the “Sensor Warm Up” message to clear. If the “Zero Required” message is
displayed, proceed with a Zero Calibration Procedure as explained in Sections 6.1 and 6.2.
• Connect the airway adapter to the patient’s air way assembled circuit.

• The widest cuff that can be placed on the patient, without extending beyond the joint, should
be selected. Cuff width should be 40 – 60% of limb circumference. The cuff should be
wrapped for a snug fit.
• The monitor comes standard with six different sizes of cuffs. They are marked to aid in proper
cuff selection. When a cuff is wrapped around a site, its index edge should be in the range
indicated on the cuff. The cuff is too small or too large if the index edge is outside the range.
• For best results, a cuff should be wrapped for a snug fit and be positioned reasonably close to
heart level.
• Avoid compression or restriction of the NIBP Inflation Hose. The hose must not be kinked or
pinched. It can be placed in any position, but it should be kept off the table surface to avoid
equipment vibrations.
•
The cuff should not be applied on a limb being used for an intravenous infusion. Do not place
the cuff on any extremity being used for SpO2 monitoring.
M. TEMPERATURE MONITORING
• The Temperature function is pre-configured with the following default settings. To change the
Temperature settings touch the TEMPs menu and change the desired setting.
Temperature Channel 1 : On
Temperature Channel 2 : OFF
Temperature Unit : °F
Temperature 1 Upper Limit : 100.4°F (38.0 °C)
Temperature 1 Lower Limit : 95.9°F (35.5 °C)
