Freezing All Waves
To freeze all waves on the screen,
1 Select the Freeze Waves SmartKey.
All realtime waves are replaced with frozen waves.
Measuring Frozen Waves
To measure a frozen wave,
1 Select the frozen wave.
If you are using touch, this automatically positions the vertical cursor. The cursor can be
repositioned by touching the required point on the wave, or
2 Using the SpeedPoint or another pointing device or touch: use the right/left arrow keys to move
the vertical cursor.
The vertical cursor moves through the time axis and the current value is displayed next to the
cursor.
3 Use the up/down arrow keys to activate and move the horizontal cursor.
The horizontal cursor measures the wave value, which is displayed above the cursor line. If the
wave is a pressure wave, the cursor value can be stored as a systolic, diastolic or mean pressure
value; if the pressure wave is a PAP wave it can also be stored as a PAWP value; for pressure waves
P, P1 to P8 it can also be stored as an IAP value. The stored value appears in the trend database as
a manually entered value.
Changing The Wave Speed
Lowering the wave speed compresses the wave and lets you view a longer time period. Increasing the
speed expands the waveform, giving you a more detailed view.
To change the wave speed:
1 Select the frozen wave.
2 Select Change Speed.
3 Select a speed from the list.
Using Labels
You may have more than one instance of some measurements, for example pressure, being used
simultaneously. The monitor uses labels to distinguish between them. The default settings defined in
the profile (such as measurement color, wave scale, and alarm settings) are stored within each label.
When you assign a label to a measurement, the monitor automatically applies these default settings to
the measurement. The labels assigned are used throughout the monitor, in reports, recordings, and in
trends.
Changing Measurement Labels (e.g. Pressure)
To change a measurement label of a measurement with multiple labels (e.g. invasive pressure or
temperature),
1 Enter the wave menu of the measurement.
