Discontinuing A Measurement; Memory Recall; Error Messages/Malfunctions - Microlife BP RM 100 Manual De Instrucciones

g) When the unit is set to Average Mode setting
generally 3 separate measurements will take place in
succession and the monitor will calculate your detected
blood pressure value. There will be 15 seconds resting
time between each measurement. A count down on the
screen indicates the remaining time and a beep will
sound 5 seconds before the 2nd and 3rd readings will
begin. In cases where the data differs significantly
between successive readings, a fourth measurement is
performed before the result will be displayed. In rare
cases the blood pressure is so unstable that even after
four measurements the data varies too much. In this
case «ERR 6» is shown and no result can be given.

5.6. Discontinuing a measurement

If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement for any reason (e.g. the patient feels unwell), the
0n/Off button can be pressed at any time. The device immediately lowers the cuff pressure automatically.

5.7. Memory recall

Pressing the « » button after switch on displays the mean blood pressure for the last 7 days. Every result is
saved and the daily mean determined from all the values measured during a day. The value displayed is the
mean of the last 7 daily means. Only this value can be displayed, no other individual values.

6. ERROR MESSAGES/MALFUNCTIONS

If an error occurs during a measurement, the measurement is discontinued and a corresponding error code
is displayed. (Example Error no. 1)
Error No. Possible cause(s)
ERR 1 The systolic pressure was determined but afterwards the cuff pressure fell below 20 mmHg.
This situation can occur, for example, if the tube becomes unplugged after the systolic blood
pressure has been measured. Further possible cause: No pulse has been detected.
ERR 2 Unnatural pressure impulses influence the measurement result. Reason: The arm was moved
during the measurement (Artefact).
ERR 3 The inflation of the cuff takes too long. The cuff is not correctly seated.
ERR 5 The measured results have indicated an unacceptable difference between the systolic and
diastolic pressure. Take another measurement, carefully following the instructions. Contact
your doctor, if you still obtain unusual results.
ERR 6 Single data differ too much during Average Mode even after 4 cycles. No average result can
be displayed.
HI The pressure in the cuff is too high (over 300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over 200 beats
per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the measurement.*
LO The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per minute). Repeat the measurement.*
* Please consult your doctor, if this or any other problem occurs repeatedly
