Silencing.the.‘clicking.sound’
The clicking which sounds each time a breath is detected, can be silenced
by simultaneously pressing the
button and the selected alarm delay
button.
To restore the click repeat the above procedure. However, breathing
continues to be indicated by the flashing indicator lamp.
Changing.the.alarm.delay.
If the Monitor is set to an alarm delay interval of 10 seconds and a 20
second alarm interval is required. This can be selected by pressing the
ON
20 sec
button without switching the Monitor off. You can also change from
a 20 second alarm delay to a 10 second by pressing the
ON 10 sec
button.
Checking.alarm.output
To check the alarm output, remove the Respiration Sensor connector
from the Monitor; the audible alarm should sound after 10 seconds (or 20
seconds), and the alarm indicator flashes. Replace the Respiration Sensor
connector, the audible alarm stops and the visual alarm continues to
flash for about 60 seconds. The Graseby MR10 immediately reverts to the
monitoring function.
However, in order to save battery power it is recommended that the visual
alarm be cancelled as soon as possible by pressing the
button.

Monitoring.the.infant
While the infant is being monitored by the Graseby MR10 it is essential that
the user remains within audible and visual range of the Monitor.
If using
the Monitor in an infant’s cot position it away from the infant i.e. at the
bottom of the cot or use the hanging strap (supplied with the Monitor) and
hang the Monitor from the cot bars. The infant can also be monitored at any
other time, for example: in a buggy, car seat etc.

To maintain the Monitor’s effectiveness, the Respiration Sensor should be
replaced after a maximum of 7 days to minimise false alarms.
