each session. The session information will also include the subject details
entered and the best pre-test if there is a Post-test session.
The Micro Spirometer is intended to be used as a temporary storage
device. It may be connected to Device Studio to produce pdf reports of
the session data, this will move all subject/sessions to the Device Studio
application and flag them as deleted on the device except for the last
FVC Pre-test.
Note: If more than the maximum subject/session entries are stored on
the device, the existing subject/sessions entries will be deleted on a First
In First Out (FIFO) basis (i.e., the first session entered will be the first to
be deleted).
5.3 Reporting
The Micro Spirometer prints reports to an external printer through the
Device Studio application.
To generate PDF reports:
1. Connect the Micro Spirometer to a computer running Device
Studio.
2. The Device Studio application should be open, the Micro
Spirometer switched on and in the Main Menu.
3. When connected, the remote mode icon will display on the Micro
Spirometer.
4. Device Studio will search for assessments on the device. The
user will be presented with the download screen for each report.
5. Additional information may be added such as name, user
interpretation and comments.
6. Device Studio may also be used to print/save calibration
verification reports and download/print all assessments.
The settings option on Device Studio allows the user to configure
information displayed on the session report.
Additional guidance on using Device Studio can be found in the
Instructions for Use supplied on the Device Studio USB flash drive and in
the software help menu.
Note: Do not disconnect the device or USB cable from the computer
during data transfer or printing.
Note: When the Micro Spirometer is connected to Device Studio, it will
move, not copy, the stored sessions, except for the latest FVC Pre-
session.
Note: Different tests conducted during the same session i.e., VC and
FVC, will be treated as a single session, with a report for that session. A
Post test will be treated as a single session, with a report for that session.
