Unknown error
This can indicate one of the following problems:
• After 2 seconds the pulse has not reached the falling level
• Heart frequency has not reached its defined range
• Variation of the heart frequency is too large
• Less than 4 measurements were taken
• The rising level was not reached within 2 seconds after the falling level
• Pulse bandwidth is out of range
• Movement artefact
• Maximum number of beats encountered in a stage
This can indicate one of the following problems:
The heart frequency was out of range in more than 3 pressure stages
•
• The difference between systole and diastole was too small
• The systole is considerably bigger than the pump pressure
• An oscillation value was smaller than the start or end value
• The pulse bandwidth is smaller than at start or end point
• The MAP is out of range
• The systole is out of range
• The diastole is too large
• The number of stages is too large
• The oscillation value is too large
• The total time is too long
• A function took too much time
The battery voltage is too low

No cuff was detected
Too many measurements were taken—OR—No memory was available in EEPROM
No measurements were taken—OR—The measurements were stopped
Hardware failure—OR—Error at zero alignment or pumping started unexpectedly
SIZING CHART
Correct cuff sizing is vital to the accuracy of monitoring data.
Find the circumference of the patient’s upper arm and refer to
