6. Wait for measurement to complete or return the probe to stop measurement.
Note: If a reliable spot check measurement cannot be made, the temperature
module will automatically switch to continuous mode to make the measurement.
Note: Once measurement is successfully completed, value is displayed.
If continuous monitoring is not needed, dock the temperature probe in the probe
well holder to reset measurement.
7. To continuously monitor temperature, touch the action menu , and then
select Continuous mode .
Note: Continuous mode can only be enabled if the probe has not been removed
from the measurement site during spot check.
Note: Continuous mode provides continuous temperature readings for up to 10
minutes through a direct measurement.
Note: Another spot check cannot be performed until the probe is first returned to
the probe well holder.
8. Dock the temperature probe in the probe well holder to end temperature
monitoring.
Temperature Probes
Two types of probes are available for use with the Root: an oral/axillary probe and a rectal
probe.
Root will automatically detect the probe type when connected: oral/axillary or rectal.
• Adult axillary Spot Check Mode (predictive) temperatures are measured using the
oral/axillary probe in combination with the Root in Adult axillary mode. A
temperature reading is provided in approximately 12-15 seconds.
• Pediatric axillary Spot Check Mode (predictive) temperatures are measured using
oral/axillary probes in combination with the Root in Pediatric axillary mode. A
temperature reading is provided in approximately 10-13 seconds.
