Microlife BP A6 BT Instructions Manual page 8

Installation and data transmission
1. Insert CD into the CD ROM drive of your PC. The installation
will start automatically. If not, please click on «SETUP.EXE».
2. Connect the monitor via the cable to the PC; there is no need to
switch the device on. 3 horizontal bars will appear on the
display and last for 3 seconds.
3. The bars will then flash to indicate that the connection between
PC and device is successful. As long as the cable is plugged in,
the bars will keep flashing and the buttons are disabled.

During the connection, the device is completely controlled
by the computer. Please refer to the «help» file for software
instructions.
9. Data Memory
This device automatically stores the last 99 measurement values.
Viewing the stored values
Switch the lock switch AM to «unlock» position. Press the M-button AT
briefly. The display first shows «M» BK and an average value. The
device then switches to the last stored value.
Pressing the «+» AL or the «-» AK button repeatedly enables you to
move from one stored value to another. Press the M-button again to
exit the memory mode.
Memory full
Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 99
memories is not exceeded. When the 99 memory is full, the
oldest value is automatically overwritten with the 100th
value. Values should be evaluated by a doctor before the
memory capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.
Clearing all values
If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored
values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been
switched off beforehand) until «CL» appears and then release the
button. To permanently clear the memory, press the M-button
while «CL» is flashing. Individual values cannot be cleared.

Cancel deletion: press START/STOP button 1 while «CL»
is flashing.
10. Battery Indicator and Battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol AS
will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery
6
displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you
should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AS will flash as soon
as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment 5 on the bottom of the device.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in
«Section 3.».

The memory retains all values although date and time must
be reset – the year number therefore flashes automatically
after the batteries are replaced.
