Spot Vital Signs LXi Firmware Upgrade
Setup
The Spot Vital Signs LXi Firmware Upgrade resets all user-defined Internal Configuration settings (e.g., language, bp units, temperature units,
height units, weight units, date, time, etc.) to the factory defaults. It is recommended that prior to executing the Firmware Upgrade that you
record the Spot Vital Signs LXi settings. After the Firmware Upgrade, re-set the Spot Vital Signs LXi settings manually or through the use of the
repair tool.
