CHECK/ADJUST
EXHAUST
VELOCITY
Exhaust velocity is the rate
at
which the air pressure
in
the cuff
deflates during the course
of
measurement.
It
is preset
at
the
factory and generally does
not
need any further adjustment.
NOTE: The
exhaust
rate
of
your
monitor
was
preset
and
tested
at
the
factory to
e~sure
proper
measurement. The
rate
set
is
dependent on
cuH size, not
arm
size.
If
using a cuH
other
than the one shipped
with
the unit,
you
may
need
to
adiust the
exhaust
velocity
rate.
There
is
no
need to adiust
exhaust
velocity
when
changing
between
a medium
cuH
and
a
large
cuH
with
a
valve.
To
check the exhaust velocity rate, proceed as follows:
1•
Put
on
the
arm
cuff.
2.
Press the
START
button.
The
unit
will begin taking a reading.
3.
Watch the display screen as the cuff deflates.
When
the MEASUREMENT IN PROGRESS symbol appears,
the numbers
should
decline
in
increments of 2 to 5 mmHg.
