This monitor automatically stores up to thirty (30) blood pressure
and pulse measurements in memory. Measurements stored in
memory are assigned an index number in the order of the newest
to the oldest.
To retrieve readings, follow these simple steps:
1.
When the display screen is showing only the time, press and
quickly release the Memory ("M") button. You will see the
date and time of the most recent blood pressure that was
taken followed by the measurement.
2.
If you want to retrieve other measurements in memory, press
and release the Memory button repeatedly until the desired
date and time of the measurement are reached. The
measurement will then be displayed.
3.
The display will shut off automatically a few seconds after the
readings are displayed.
To clear the measurement history from memory, press and hold the
Memory button for at least five seconds while the display screen is
showing only the time. Release the Memory button when you see
the M symbol in lower left hand corner of the display flash and
disappears. This indicates that the memory has been cleared.
If there are no measurements stored in memory, you will see no
numbers in the date and time fields followed by a measurement of
three 0s displayed vertically.
NOTE: Stored measurements will be lost if batteries become low or
are removed.
ABOUT MEMORY
The UA-787 blood pressure monitor provides a blood pressure
and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat
occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies
by 25% from the average of all heartbeats intervals during the
blood pressure measurement. It is important that you be relaxed,
remain still and do not talk during measurements.
NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
indicator frequently.
