Recorder Modes: Functionality with a QS System
CAUTION
DATA STORAGE—Stored maternal vital signs history data is
erased when you turn the
monitor off . Therefore, for intermittent
monitoring, it is recommended that you leave the monitor on , but
turn the recorder off. Refer to Chapter 12, “Maternal Vital Signs
History” for more information.
Functionality with a QS System
Users of a Quantitative Sentinel (QS) System (Software Version 4.0.3.0 or earlier)
should be aware of the following items when using the monitor’s maternal-only
mode:
Paper Versus Electronic Strip Charts
As described earlier, the monitor’s maternal-only mode acts as a “paper saver”
turning the strip chart recorder on and off as needed. However, the QS System
overrides the maternal-only mode by storing the entire patient record. In other
words, the
electronic strip chart is retained as if the monitor’s recorder were left on
