Setting Monitor Response Mode
The purpose of the response mode is to set the response time of the
N-600x algorithm calculation of the SpO
2
(the response mode does
not affect the N-600x algorithm’s calculation of pulse rate). The
trending interval (2- or 4-seconds) is updated automatically by the
monitor to roughly correspond with the SpO
2
calculation response
time.
The response mode automatically programs the N-600x algorithm to
record and display monitor trend information at 2-second intervals
(Fast Mode) up to 24 hours or 4-second intervals (Normal Mode) up
to 48 hours.
The response mode display screen includes the current SpO
2
response
mode setting and the current measured %SpO
2
and pulse rate. When
in the fast mode, the screen displays the fast mode symbol.
1. With the monitor in the normal monitoring mode, press the
SETUP softkey.
2. Press the NEXT softkey three times.
