Indicates pulse beat and shows the relative (non-normalized)
pulse amplitude. As the detected pulse becomes stronger, more
bars light with each pulse. This indicator is available only in the
blip view.
Displays a non-normalized waveform in real-time sensor signals.
The relative pulsatile strength and quality of the incoming
signals can be observed.
Displays the pulse rate in beats per minute. It flashes during
loss-of-pulse alarms and when the pulse rate is outside of the
alarm limits. During Pulse Search, the monitor continues to
update the display. Pulse rates outside of the pulse rate range of
20 to 250 bpm are displayed as 0 and 250, respectively. If alarm
limits have been changed from their power-on defaults, a
decimal point (.) is displayed after the BPM value (112.).
