During a study, the patient pushes
any button to turn on the backlight.
Once the backlight is on, pressing
a symptom button causes a beep to
occur, the button’s LED to light up
briefly, and its icon is inverted
briefly on the screen (see
Figure 3). If the button is one of
the event buttons, a beep occurs
and the button’s LED starts
blinking, indicating the event’s
start time. The blinking continues until the patient presses the button again when the event
ends. (That is, the patient presses any button to first turn on the backlight, and then presses
the event button to signal the end of the event.)

study.

the Meal and Supine features are not supported. These buttons are

used only to navigate while setting up a study. Once a study
recording has begun, the Meal and Supine buttons are disabled for
patient use.
