Indication of Pulse Pressure
This device calculates and displays the pulse pressure value (Fig. 14). Pulse pressure – a diff erence be-
tween the systolic and diastolic pressures – tends to increase with aging.
Systolic blood pressure continues to increase with aging, while diastolic blood pressure tends to decrease
since the age of about 50 years.
It is considered that a high pulse pressure is related to poor elasticity of arteries and is one of the risk
factors for circulatory diseases. Pulse pressure is considered to be normal when it attains 35±10 mm Hg.
MEMORY FUNCTOIN
The measured values are automatically saved for later viewing in the selected memory unit. These memory
units can be used to save separately the measurement results of two diff erent persons or to save separately
the results of morning and evening measurements.
Each unit can keep up to 60 measurement results and the average value thereof. When the number of kept
values exceeds 60, the oldest readings are deleted to record new values.
Saved values are kept with the measurement date and time, if set. If you want to save time and date
together with the measurement values, date and time should be set before the measurement.
When an error occurs (ERR), the measurement results are not saved.
Viewing the Saved Data
1. Turn off the device by pressing the START/STOP button. To view the results stored in the memory unit
1, press , and to view the results stored in the memory unit 2, press . The selected memory unit will be
underlined on the display.
The display shows the average value of stored results indicated with index « » (Fig.15). Average value is
displayed when the selected memory unit contains two or more saved measurement results.
2. Each time you press the
3. Memory unit number, measurement date and time will be displayed one by one in the upper right corner of the display.
4. The result saved in the memory unit 1 is the most recent among the saved data in the selected memory. The higher memory number, the
older the result.
The memory data are displayed for about 30 seconds and after that, if no button is pressed, the device is automatically turned off .
button or button, saved measurement results will be displayed in a sequential manner.
