amplitude of each wave will be identical to the next (Figure 6).

You may now read the SpO

and PR displayed on the OLED
screen.
ATTENTION
The Fingernails should be facing the LED lights and not
the sensor
Make sure that your finger is put deep into the probe
such that the fingertip is directly in between the LED
sensor and the LED light source.
Make sure your finger is stationary in the probe while
you are measuring your SpO
2
levels.
Excessive ambient infra-red light, especially for people
who use the pulse oximeter in an overly bright lit room
can interfere with the sensor.
Poor circulation can affect oximeter readings. Warm
your
hands
and
fingers
before
taking
your
measurements. Remember your pulse oximeter is
measuring your SpO2 and PR based on your blood flow.
If the blood flow in your finger drops below a certain
level, the pulse oximeter will not be able to function.
If the alarm function is on, a medium-priority alarm will
go off when the probe does not register a reading (like
when the finger is out). User will hear an intermittent
beeping sound and a "FINGER OUT" message will be
displayed across the user interface. Medium priority
alarms indicate that prompt operator response is
required.
The pulse oximeter is sensitive to the duration of the
button
(See
Figure 2) being pressed. A short PUSH (<1 sec) or a long HOLD
