5. Pulse Signal Strength is displayed in
the center of the screen. A marginal
pulse strength will be seen as 3-4 amber
bars. Inadequate signal will display as
1-2 red bars and a Low Pulse Signal
alarm will occur. Green bars denote a
good signal.
A Pulse Quality Symbol will blink when poor signal is detected,
and remain lit if poor signal occurs for an extended time.
A Sensor Alarm Symbol may appear if the sensor becomes
disconnected, fails, is incompatible with the oximeter or is not
placed properly.
For any of these conditions, check sensor position on the patient, blood
flow at the sensor site, warm finger (digit) if necessary, and connection of
the sensor to the oximeter. If the situation is not corrected, try a different
compatible Nonin-branded sensor.
6. Power Supply is indicated in the lower right by a "plug"
symbol for wall power, or a battery level symbol if operating
on battery only.
The battery symbol will blink when battery level is low, and stay on when
critically low. Recharge as soon as possible. The battery will charge on
wall power while the oximeter is in use or turned off.
7. Discontinue Use by turning the oximeter off with the On/Off button.
Then disconnect the sensor plug, and remove the sensor from the patient.
If operating on battery power, plug the oximeter power supply into a wall
outlet to recharge batteries while not being used. Full re-charge takes
approximately 4 hours for a fully depleted battery.

an audible and visual alarm will occur if they go out of the limits. A low
perfusion condition may generate a High Priority Alarm.
B. MEDIUM PRIORITY Alarms – This alarm is for conditions like a low
battery, reduced pulse signal strength and other oximeter conditions.
