Probe Well and Switch SureTemp Plus Module OEM Implementation
12 Confidential Welch Allyn OEM Technologies
The integrated well design also eliminates the need for additional wiring between the module and
probe well, saving the host design time and reducing development risk.
Oral/axillary probes (identified by a blue ejection button at the top) and blue oral/axillary
removable probe wells are used for taking oral and axillary temperatures only. Rectal probes (red
ejection button) and red rectal removable probe wells are used for taking rectal temperatures
only.
Cycle Initiation Switch
An optical switch is part of the integral probe well included with each module. No additional items
are required from the host.
Probe Well Switch
A mechanical switch is used to enable a measurement cycle when a probe well is properly
inserted into the probe-well shroud, and to disable a measurement cycle when a probe well is not
inserted into the probe-well shroud.
