Batch Printing
After a patient has been continuously monitored over some period, a clinician can use the
monitor’s batch printing capability to print all of the measurements that were stored in
the monitor’s memory over the monitoring period.
When the monitor is configured for batch printing, and while it is in normal operating
mode, press
to print all readings stored in memory (up to 99 cycles), starting with the
oldest measurement cycle and working forward. The message PRINTING is displayed
during the batch print, and all monitor controls other than
and
are disabled. Batch
printing continues until one of the following occurs:
•
All stored data has been printed.
•
is pressed again.
•
A battery failure condition.
•
A nonrecoverable error condition is detected.
In any of these cases, printing stops immediately.
Stream Printing
Alternatively, a clinician can choose to print a continuous stream of vital signs, where the
measurement information is printed as soon as the results of each cycle are recorded.
When the monitor is configured for stream printing, and while it is in normal operating
mode, press
to immediately begin stream printing. Stream printing continues until one
of the following occurs:
Note
The print button is not enabled during an NIBP cycle or during a nonrecoverable
equipment alert.
Note
If the monitor is configured for Stream printing but printing is disabled, you can
press and hold
for 3 seconds to immediately start a Batch print job. When this
Batch job ends, the monitor is still configured for Stream printing.
