Under the “Information Display mode”, press the function key (left key) for more than one second (extended press), the oximeter will enter into “Setting mode” and you will find a parameter item
which include its title and value on the top right corner of the display.
Under the setting mode, continually press “Function key (left key)”, the current parameter item will be changed sequentially in the following order:
Br(brightness)-->ID(patientID)-->Y(year)-->M(month)-->D(date)-->H(hour)-->m(minute)-->S(second)--Br(brightness)-->...
Notice:
When setting, please don’t insert finger.
b) Save and exit from “Setting mode”
①
Under the “Setting mode”, press “function key (left key)” to select the desired parameter item.
②
Then press “Setting key (right key)” to adjust the value.
Each time when you press the “Setting key (right key)”, current parameter value will be added by 1 unit sequentially.
Double press the “Setting key (right key)” and the current parameter setting will be added by 10 units sequentially. All use circular logic.
③
To finish one setup,
press
both left and right keys
together
to confirm
. Then the modification under the “Setting mode” will be saved, at the same time, the system will exit from “Setting
mode”.
Notice:
Each time only can set one parameter item, you must redo the step
①
to
③
to finish every setup.
The parameters adjustment only can be done in the “Setting mode” under “Information Display mode”.
c) Cancel and exit from “Setting mode”
Under the “Setting mode”, double-press the Function key (left key), the modification under “Setting mode” will be cancelled and simultaneously, the system will exit from “Setting mode”.
If there is no operation under “Setting mode” for more than 10 seconds, the system will exit from “Setting mode” automatically.
3.4 Data replay and transmission
The oximeter can record SpO2 and PR value for more than 24 hours, and can analyze records one by one. You can transmit the history data to a PC using “Virtuox” software and a special data cable.
As for detailed setup and operation, please refer to the “Virtuox” website. www.virtuox.net

CHAPTER 4 Maintenance and Repair
4.1 Maintenance
It is very important for user to perform daily maintenance of oximeter and parts in order to maintain its function and appearance. Disinfection procedures may be performed with the use of the below
mentioned cleaner/disinfectants. Failure to perform these procedures may result in invalidating the warranty. Local disinfection protocols will apply.
Please take out battery before cleaning the oximeter.
The external surface of the oximeter can be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the oximeter in any solution at any time. To do so will void the warranty
Use the following permitted solutions:
Ammonia (diluted)
Glutaraldehyde
10% Bleach solution
Mild soapy water (diluted).
Do not use the following cleaners:
○
Any kind of scrubbing or scouring solution
○
Acetone
○
Alcohol-based cleaners
Battery maintenance
Remove the batteries if you will not be using the oximeter for an extended time.
Charge the batteries (NiMH or Li) fully prior to storage.
Please charge over 14 hours at first time, or will reduce the battery life.

b) Possible problem and corresponding resolution
Problems
Possible reason
Solution
SpO
2
or PR
cannot be
displayed
normally
1. Finger is not plugged
correctly
2. Patient’s Oxyhemoglobin
value is too low to be
measured
1. Retry by plugging the finger
2. Attempt several time to obtain a
reading, If are sure that no
problem exists, obtain further
clinical examination
