WALL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The wall mount bracket should be mounted approximately 48 inches from the
floor. This allows the end user of average height relatively easy access to the
probe and probe covers. It should have at least 12 inches of clearance on the
top of the unit so that the end user can easily remove the thermometer probe and
load a probe cover without hindrance. Clearance of at least 4 inches from the
bottom of the unit and from either side is also advisable to prevent tangling of
the probe cord with other equipment at the bedside.
The wall mount bracket should be mounted in a location so that when a
thermometer is installed, the display can be read from the patient's bedside.
Placement should also ensure that the probe can be readily removed from
the thermometer, a probe cover can be easily installed and the probe can
be returned to its position without stress being placed on either the
instrument, the wall mount or most importantly, the patient.
CHANGING THE SECURITY SETUP
The SureTemp Model 678 is equipped with a security option that is
designed to reduce the possibility of theft.
To change the security options, you must first enter the Biotech mode.
Entering the Biotech Mode
• Place the unit into the wall holder.
• Press and hold the mode button while
removing the probe from the probe
holder.
You are now in the Biotech
Mode.
• Remove the thermometer from the
wall holder.
Note: Replacing the probe into the probe
holder will place the thermometer back
into its normal operating state.
Once in the Biotech Mode, there are
several functions that can be accessed.
These function are described completely in the Model 678 Technical
Manual. The following section describes the security functions only.

3. During the temperature measurement
cycle, “walking” segments will appear on
the display indicating measurement is in
process.
4. When the final temperature has been
reached, a tone will sound and the patient’s
temperature will be displayed.
5. After the temperature measurement is com-
plete, remove the probe from the patient, then eject the probe cover by firmly
pressing the ejection button on the probe. (Figure 1)
6. Insert the probe into the storage channel to clear the display, in preparation
for another temperature.
USING THE MONITOR MODE
Remove the probe from the storage channel and take a temperature using Oral,
Rectal, or Axillary Mode. After the temperature is displayed, depress the Mode
button for more than 2 seconds. The “M” icon will appear on the LCD
indicating the unit is in Monitor mode. The unit is ready to continuously display
temperatures in Monitor mode. After the Monitor mode temperature has been
taken, replacing the probe in the storage channel clears the display and resets
the thermometer to Normal mode. The unit will automatically enter the Monitor
mode by removing the probe from the probe storage channel and waiting 60
seconds.
NOTE: When using the Monitor mode, allow the temperature readout
to stabilize for 3 minutes for oral and rectal temperatures and 5 minutes
for axillary temperatures.
