SYSTOLIC AND DIASTOLIC SHIFT – The NIBP-1000 Series is equipped with the option
to shift test results to compensate for different methods of measuring Oscillometric NIBP by
various manufacturers and models of devices under test.
There are no absolute standards for Oscillometric NIBP readings; therefore, for a number
of reasons (including patents, technology, etc.), each manufacturer has established a
different method for evaluating the oscillometric pulses. Due to these varying methods,
precisely the same waveforms will give different results on different manufacturer’s units.
CAUTION
These adjustments must be used with caution as they will
allow the user to adjust the output results to invalid values.
These adjustments should only be used to aid in the
simplification of testing and with documented controls.
The normal technique used is to run the monitor against a fixed source like the NIBP-1000,
with the understanding that each manufacturer has a predictable error from this norm.
While this is generally the most direct method, users have asked for a method to correct
for this difference, making the monitors read the same as the test unit. The Systolic and
Diastolic Shift settings allow for just such correction.
These adjustments are indicated in a line added to the main display to inform the user of
any shift that has been programmed into the system. This is done so there is no
misunderstanding of the meaning of the results.

OPERATIONS
CONNECTING PRESSURE
The NIBP-1010, NIBP-1020 and NIBP-1030 Blood Pressure Simulators are connected
between the blood pressure cuff and the monitor (Device Under Test, DUT).
The blood pressure cuff should be disconnected from the DUT and a ‘T’ adapter inserted
between the cuff and the DUT. The NIBP simulator is then connected to the open side.

For the models with ECG output, test snaps are provided along the sides and are identified

CONNECTING PATIENT LEADS
IBP CONNECTOR
(NIBP-1030 ONLY)
For the models with IBP output, connect a standard BP test cable (mini-din to monitor
connector) between the NIBP-1030 and the DUT (Device Under Test). The pin-out shown
below for the mini-din is the industry standard configuration that is used on most modern
simulators. As such, there are many existing cables that may be used or you may obtain
the proper cable from BC Group.
17
TEMPERATURE CONNECTOR
(NIBP-1030 ONLY)
For the models with Temperature output, connect a standard Temperature test cable (mini-
din to monitor connector) between the NIBP-1030 and the DUT (Device Under Test). The
pin-out is shown below.
AUX CONNECTOR
The Aux connector is used for both serial communications and SpO2. The serial
connection is made using the BC20-41337 cable. The MSP-2100 module plugs directly
into the Aux port and provides the SpO2 function.
18
THEORY OF OPERATIONS
NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) Function
A digital stepping motor and piston assembly is used to generate the output waveforms. A
differential pressure sensor is used to measure the pressure of the cuff. The pressure
sensor is read by a 16-bit differential Analog to Digital converter.
The cuff pressure is monitored and the motor/piston assembly reacts to provide the correct
response based on the selected mode.
IBP (Invasive Blood Pressure) Function
A 12-bit Digital to Analog converter is used to generate the IBP waveforms. The output
circuit is fully isolated and capable of switching between the two standard sensitivities (5
µV/V/mmHg and 40 µV/V/mmHg).
Temperature
There is an 8-pin mini-DIN plug connector on the right side of the unit for connection of
a Temperature cable. Temperatures are simulated for both YSI 400 and YSI 700 probe
types. There are seven different temperatures selectable for each.
19
ECG Function
The ECG output is performed by a 12-bit Digital to Analog converter. All waveforms for the
standard ECG and Arrhythmias are generated via data stored in the program.
Respiration Function
A 12-bit Digital to Analog converter is used to generate the respiration waveform. The
respiration output is present on the LA ECG lead only. Refer to Monitor manual to
determine which lead the Monitor uses for respiration. It may be necessary to reverse the
LA and LL leads for respiration to be detected.
20
RUNNING A TEST
Depending on the model, there are up to 9 Basic Test Modes and 3 Sub-Test Modes. This
section will walk through each of the tests and their basic operation.
The Main Tests are accessible with a single key. The key will scroll through the
following tests in a continuous loop:
Adult 120/80

Adult High 190/120
Adult Low 80/40
Neonatal 70/40

BASIC TEST MODES
NIBP:
The first 5 test modes deal with various NIBP setups. To run an NIBP simulation, the cuff
and monitor are connected to the pressure input. Then the measurement is initiated by the
monitor and the NIBP-1000 unit will output the proper waveform based on the cuff pressure
provided by the monitor and the selected simulation.
The NIBP output mode can be changed by pressing the key. Once the desired
operating mode is selected, the output will automatically begin when the correct pressure is
detected.
21

There are 5 selectable NIBP Basic Test Modes; Adult, Adult w/pace, Adult High, Adult Low
and Neonatal. The displays will resemble the following examples:
