c. Special Setups
To display the Special Setups dialog box, open the Unit, Setup, Compliance Setup menu and
select the Special Setups tab.
The Special Setup dialog box includes access to the Monitor Scheduler feature, when Sensor
Check operates, Measurement Units, Time Format, and Send Unit Time with Setup. After you
have entered your settings in each dialog box, choose Send to transfer your settings to the
monitor, or proceed to the Setup Files tab and save the settings on the PC.
(1) Monitor Scheduler – Edit
The Monitor Scheduler feature sets the Minimate Pro unit to automatically start monitoring
sessions at a preset time using a series of saved setup files and, if required, the Self Check feature
can be activated. The scheduler can be set for a one time session, daily, or weekly. Using the
Monitor Scheduler extends the battery life by only monitoring the time periods when Events are
scheduled to occur and not the time periods between Events. It allows for different monitoring
Record Modes to be selected, too, as long as the sensors remain the same within each setup file
used.
Select Edit to enter the Monitor Scheduler window. The initial view has the Week selected,
with the time window set as 5:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Use the window scroll bar at the right to
access earlier or later times. The calendar is divided into programmable half-hour Time Cells.
IMPORTANT: After setting up the Monitor Scheduler, refer to the Unit Monitor Status
feature, List Setup Files, and List Operator, for additional ways to remotely activate and control
the unit without entering the Compliance Setup dialog.
NOTE: The Monitor Scheduler can be used to define VDV Record Mode sessions. This feature
can be used to specify the different settings required for daytime and nighttime monitoring (24
hours) setup files for VDV Record Mode: Daytime VDV monitoring is performed on the vertical
channel (7:00 AM to 11:00 PM) while the nighttime VDV monitoring is performed on the
horizontal channels (11:00 PM to 7:00 AM).
NOTE: To avoid a half hour delay between daytime and nighttime VDV monitoring, enter two
sequential ‘Start Monitoring’ commands at 11:00 PM.
NOTE: The Monitor Scheduler uses Setup Files that
have been created and saved. Refer to this
section of the manual, Compliance Setup – Series IV, for information about creating and saving
setup files.
