You can set the initial cuff inflation pressure manually. In the [NIBP Setup] menu, select [Initial Pressure] and then
select the appropriate setting.
12.7.2 Setting NIBP Alarm Properties
Select [Alarm Setup >>] from the [NIBP Setup] menu. You can set the alarm properties for this parameter in the popup

The monitor can issue a reminder tone at the completion of NIBP measurement. The NIBP End Tone is off by default. You
can switch it on by accessing the [NIBP Setup] menu.
12.8 Assisting Venous Puncture
You can use the NIBP cuff to cause sub-diastolic pressure to block the venous blood vessel and therefore help venous
puncture.
1. Select [VeniPuncture >>] from the [NIBP Setup] menu. In the popup menu, verify that the [Cuff Press.] value is
appropriate. Change it if necessary.
2. Select [VeniPuncture].
3. Puncture vein and draw blood sample.
4. Select the hardkey on the monitor’s front, or the [Stop All] QuickKey to deflate the cuff. The cuff deflates
automatically after a set time if you do not deflate it.
During measurement, the NIBP display shows the inflation pressure of the cuff and the remaining time in venous
puncture mode.
