Cufflink
Operators Manual
B-2
Cuff adapter Specialized connecting hose (consists of T connector, plastic tubing,
and quick release connector) that provides the link from the Analyzer
to the NIBP system
There are several different types of cuff adapters available to
accommodate many different types of NIBP monitors.
CuffPeak Cuff Peak
Value on the makearm display that indicates peak cuff pressure
reached during the blood pressure cycle
CuffPress Cuff Pressure
Value on the makearm display that indicates current cuff pressure
during the blood pressure cycle
Cuff pressure Pressure inside the sphygmomanometer cuff
Cursor Dark blue rectangle on the Analyzer display that indicates a current
selection
Cycle See blood pressure cycle.
data string A serial data transmission
In this case, the data is values that the Analyzer sends to the
controller.
Default values Values assigned to remote commands each time the Analyzer is
powered on
DeflRate Deflate Rate
Value on the makearm display that indicates the rate of cuff deflation
(in mmHg/sec) at the end of the blood pressure cycle
Demme Deflate Time
Value on the makearm display that indicates how long (in seconds) it
took for the cuff to deflate at the end of the blood pressure cycle
Diastole Relaxation of the heart during the cardiac cycle
diastolic blood pressure The blood pressure that occurs during the relaxation period of the
cardiac cycle
Display test Analyzer self test
A series of patterns shown on the display to verify correct display
operation
EEROM Electrically Erasable Read Only Memory; a memory device pro-
grammed with high voltage signals and erased electrically
In the Analyzer, all user modifications are stored in EEROM.
Flow control The handshaking method used by peripherals and microprocessors
to inform each other when data is available to be sent or received
This is useful when the microprocessor is faster than the peripheral
device (printer, etc.). The Analyzer microprocessor can fill the output
buffer, go on to other tasks, and resume sending data to the
peripheral when it needs more data.
