The Buttons
ON/OFF
The ON/OFF button turns the ABPM 7100 on and off. To prevent unintended activation,
the ABPM 7100 turns on or turns off only when the button is pressed for more than 2
seconds.
START
The START button serves to
 initiate a manual measurement to ascertain whether the ABPM 7100 is working correctly.
 initiate a 24-hour measurement.
 perform a measurement outside the specified measurement cycle.
DAY/NIGHT
The DAY/NIGHT button is used to differentiate between waking and sleeping phases
during the measurement, which is important for statistics and the graphic displays.
The patient is instructed to press the DAY/NIGHT button upon going to bed and again,
when getting up in the morning. This individually adapts the measurement interval to the
patient and assists you in the analysis of the blood pressure profile.
EVENT
The patient uses the EVENT button to document the time of medication or to record any
events which may cause the blood pressure to rise or fall. Pressing the button will trigger a
measurement, the patient should note the reason for pressing the EVENT button in the
event log.
LCD Display
The LCD display is located on the front of the ABPM 7100 casing. It displays useful information for the doctor
and the patient regarding measurement data, monitor settings and measurement errors. When the START
button is pressed, the number of previously registered measurements will be shown before starting a manual
measurement.
