WARNING

This pneumatic test other than being specified in the ISO 81060-1 standard is to be used

by the user to simply determine whether there are air leaks in the NIBP airway. If at the

end of the test the system gives the prompt that the NIBP airway has air leaks, please

contact the manufacturer for repair.

Procedure of the Air Leakage Test:

1) Connect the cuff securely with the socket for NIBP air hole.

2) Wrap the cuff around the cylinder of an appropriate size.

3) Access the NIBP SETUP menu.

4) Select LEAK TEST by pressing UP/DOWN. It indicates Leak testing… in the

information area.

5) The system will automatically inflate the pneumatic system to about 180 mmHg. After

20 seconds to 40 seconds, if system leakage has detected, the system will automatically

open the deflating valve to stop the leak test and indicates NIBP Leak. If no system

leakage is detected when the pneumatic system is inflated to 180 mmHg, the system will

perform a deflation to an approximate value of 40 mmHg and subsequently perform the

second phase leak test. After 20 seconds to 40 seconds, the system will automatically

open the deflating valve and provide corresponding indication based on the test result.

6) If the alarm information of AIR LEAK appears, it indicates that the airway may have air

leaks. In this case, the user should check for loose connection. After confirming secure

connections, the user should re-perform the pneumatic test. If the failure prompt still

appears, please contact the manufacturer for repair.

 NIBP MEMORY

You can set this item to ON or OFF. If the item is ON, the monitor will automatically

memorize the initial measurements of the patient when measuring his or her blood pressure.

Then the monitor will inflate the cuff according to the previous memorized measurements.

This function accelerates the measuring of the patient’s blood pressure.
