following explanations refer to version 3.52 or higher (upgrade, if
possible).
Blood pressure intervals are only valid for Ergoline 900.
The EC1200 with version 3.52 and later only supports directly
connected blood pressure monitors. They are controlled by the stage
time setting. The blood pressure interval will be ignored.
