Figure 1-4. The Middle Keypad Set
c. The Middle Keypad Set. (See Figure 1-4) The middle keypad set contains six push
keys. The three on the left provide control of the NIBP monitoring feature with two of
the keys (NIBP START/STOP and NIBP STAT) providing direct control of NIBP
measurements and the third (NIBP INTERVAL) bringing up a menu that allows
adjustment of the NIBP auto mode interval feature. On the right side of this set are two
keys which control the Trending feature of the monitor (TRENDS and CLEAR
TRENDS) while a third (RECORD) provides a hardcopy printout of selected
parameters as specified by operator adjustments in the RECORDER Menu. The six
push keys are described below:
(5) ALARMS SCREEN. The ALARMS SCREEN key is a dual function key
that allows the operator to setup the Alarms monitoring feature. When the
monitor display is in the Normal Screen and the ALARMS SCREEN key is
pressed, the Main Alarm Setup Screen will appear; when the monitor display
has any icon highlighted and the ALARMS SCREEN key is pressed, an
Alarm Setup Screen for the highlighted parameter appears.
(6) RECORDER SETUP. The RECORDER SETUP key allows the operator
to setup the Recorder option.
(1) NIBP START/STOP. This key starts a new NIBP measurement, or stops a
measurement that is already in progress..
(2) NIBP INTERVAL. Pressing the NIBP INTERVAL key brings up the NIBP
INTERVAL Menu where the cycle time (time between readings) of the NIBP
Automatic Reading Mode may be adjusted.
(3) NIBP STAT. This key starts the NIBP STAT Mode measurements. This
mode may be terminated by depressing the NIBP START/STOP key. The
STAT Mode performs up to five (5) NIBP measurements in rapid succession
(with a short pause between readings) within a maximum time frame of five
(5) minutes.
(4) TRENDS. The TRENDS key allows the operator to setup the Trend
monitoring feature. The exact operation of the TRENDS key is based on
whether or not a feature is currently highlighted. If a feature is currently
highlighted, pressing the TRENDS key will bring up a Trend which is specific
to the highlighted feature; if a feature is not currently highlighted, pressing the
TRENDS key will bring up the HISTORY Menu and Tabular Display (See
Section 5).
