To access the non-invasive blood pressure parameters, touch the NIBP control
in the Home screen to show the screen in Figure 8 in the display.

Figure 8. Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Screen
The non-invasive blood pressure, heart rate, respiration, and the invasive blood
pressure parameters are shown at the top of the display. To change the non-
invasive blood pressure, touch one of the pre-defined blood pressure controls in
the display.
The Product can simulate four adult and two neonatal blood pressures. When
set, the pulse volume is set to the default for that simulation: 1.0 ml for Adult,
0.5 ml for Neonatal.

How to Do an NIBP Monitor Test
To do an accuracy test on an NIBP monitor:
1. Connect the NIBP monitor to the Product as shown in Figure 6.
2. Start an NIBP pressure cycle on the monitor. Refer to the monitor manual as
necessary. After you start the blood pressure measurement cycle:
• The blood pressure cuff inflates around the mandrel.
• The Product starts blood pressure simulation when the pressure is over
10 mmHg. The heart beat simulation starts and stops at the systolic and
diastolic pressures set into the Product.
• The NIBP monitor interprets and shows the measured blood pressure
values and heart rate when the test stops.
How to Do a Pressure Relief Test
The pressure relief test measures the pressure in a pneumatic system until the
Product senses a drop in pressure as occurs when the relief valve opens. Or the
test stops if the pressure gets to the target pressure and no relief is sensed.
Note
Put the NIBP monitor in “calibrate” or “service” mode to close the
vent valve, so the user can inflate the pneumatic system. Refer to
the service manual for the NIBP monitor.
