  Courtney MoralesAug 18, 2025
  If the oximetry sensor is connected to the Huntleigh Measuring Instruments and no signal appears, or the signal disappears after some monitoring time, ensure the connector jack is properly inserted. Also, check the connections between the connecting cable and the sensor, and make sure the finger is properly inserted. Be aware that nail varnish can interfere with readings, so try another finger.
