4.3 Taking blood pressure readings
a.
Press the
START
button
.
• All the display
symbols will appear for approx. two seconds.
• The cuff
will then inflate. The increasing pressure is displayed numerically.
• Pressing the
START
button
during inflation will stop the inflation process.
The unit switches off and the cuff deflates.
b.
The measuring process begins automatically when inflation is complete by
releasing the pressure built up in the cuff. The display shows the current
pressure in the cuff.
Initially, deflation occurs at a constant speed. As soon as the pulse can be deter-
mined, deflation is synchronised with the beating of the heart until the measure-
ment ends. This procedure is accompanied by a beep and the heart symbol
flashes at the same time. The measurement is complete when the cuff suddenly
deflates and readings are displayed next to
SYS
,
DIA
and
PUL
.
5 Memory
5.1 Recording the results
This unit features 2 separate memories, each with a capacity of 99 memory slots.
Results are automatically stored in the memory selected by the user. When the
memory is full, the oldest reading is always the first to be deleted.
5.2 Displaying stored results
Press the
MEMORY
button
to display the stored readings. Initially, the average,
marked “
A
”, of all readings in the memory selected is displayed.
When the
MEMORY
button
is pressed again, the individual readings (switching
between systolic, diastolic, pulse and date/time) of the last measurement stored
are displayed.
Press the
MEMORY
button
again to move backwards through the stored rea-
dings. At the bottom left of the display, above the symbol
MR
(MEMORY RECALL),
the memory number for the reading is displayed. The readings are displayed in
reverse order. If, for example, seven readings are stored in total, reading No. 7 (the
last, most current measurement) will be displayed first, then reading No. 6 (the
second last measurement) etc.
5.3 Deleting memory
The data can be deleted from the memory selected by pressing and holding the
MEMORY
button
for about 7 seconds. After 7 seconds, the display
shows
“
CL
” ( CLEAR ) which indicates that all data have been deleted.
5.4 Switching off the uni
t
The unit switches off automatically after about 3 minutes, if no button is pressed
during this period. It can also be switched off by pressing the
START
button
.
The time and the personal memory selected are constantly shown in the display.
