attempt to take another reading.
The following NIBP status message looks similar to an equipment alert, although it does not indicate a
malfunction and does not cause an alert tone.
NIBP IN PROGRESS, PLEASE WAIT, FILTERING ARTIFACT. Noise or artifact such as vehicle
motion is causing a delay while measuring NIBP. To remove the message, press any key below the
screen. To cancel the NIBP measurement, press the
Start/Stop NIBP
key at the right of the screen.
Temperature Messages
PROBE NOT DETECTED.
This message occurs when the Propaq CS monitor has successfully
measured temperature and a probe is then disconnected. Reconnect the probe or acknowledge the
equipment alert by pressing any menu key.
PROBE SHORT. Verify that the probe is properly inserted in the left side panel. If so, replace
probe.
CALIBRATION ERROR, TEMP DISABLED. This message appears when the Propaq CS monitor
has detected that it cannot accurately measure the temperature. The monitor should be serviced.
Malfunction of the temperature probes may result in inaccurate readings. Confirm suspect readings.
