sensor failed or disconnect-
ed
« Replace the sensor.
NIBP no module detect. • NO NIBP module detected « Switch device Off/On or replace device.
NIBP error • NIBP module failed « Replace the device.
NIBP no/off cuff • No cuff connected or insufficiently
fitted.
• Pump is not running
• Pump is running
• Pressure offset above 10 mm/Hg
see page 14
« Check the cuff position.
« Pump is mechanical blocked (call service)
« Pump not or wrong connected (call service)
« Internal tubes off (call service)
« Adjust the zero point of the NIBP module. Call service.
NIBP signal low • Cuff not applied correctly
• Pulse too low for good measure-
ment
• Tube too long for neonates
« Reposition/check the cuff.
« Use a tube for neonates (max. 1.5 m).
NIBP pressure range • Pressure min. 15 mm/Hg max.
310 mm/Hg below or above the
limit
« Check cuff and connection.
NIBP time too long • Pumping running time exceeded
(40 s for neonates, 60 s for adults)
« Check cuff and connection for leaks
« Pressure approx. 50 mmHg when pump is running check
valve
« Internal tubings
CO

Environment dist. • Temperature, or barometric pres-
sure of the CO
2
sensor outside
the range
• Pump damaged
• Air or vacuum source connected
to the CO
2
input
« Check the environmental conditions. (call service)
« Inspect the pump.
« Inspect the connection.

Occlusion • Tube system clogged « Check the tube system and watertrap for occlusion.
Temp. Sensor off • Sensor removed. « Reconnect the sensor.
Temp. out of range • Temperature out of range of 15
°C to 45 °C.
« This limit is fixed. The display shows “<<“(15 below °C)
or “>>” (above 45 °C).
Temp. failed • Sensor failed « Replace the sensor.
IBP no sensor • IBP sensor failed « Replace the sensor.
IBP not calibrated • Zero point sensor too high/low
pressure higher then ± 30 mmHg
or pressure variations.
« Check tube system, sensor and ventil
« Calibrate the sensor.
