Product description The disadvantage of the oscillometric method is the sensitivity to movement. Measurement Cycle The oscillometric method can be divided into three measurement steps (see Fig. 1): 1. Cuff inflation The cuff is pumped up to a certain predefined pressure that is high enough to cut off the arterial blood flow in the arm.
The bottom side of the recorder includes the battery compartment protected by the battery cover and the label to identify the device’s serial number, IEM’s service address, and the CE mark (detailed explanation of the information on the label in chapter 2.4.2).
® BT plus) The replacement of some components requires the renewal of the label. The corresponding label must be requested at IEM. All relevant information must be available for this purpose. The replacement of the following components is affected: •...

For this purpose, a one-time login provided by IEM is used when starting the software for the first time. After entering the data correctly, the mask for entering the account information is displayed. The newly set password must be repeated. The input of the username is limited to max.
This is the only way to ensure that the functions suitable for the currently connected device are made available. About window Clicking on the IEM logo gives information about the software version and the manufacturer. 3.3.2 Bottom Bar The current connection status is displayed in the footer.
Service Software 3.3.5 Working area As long as the user has not yet logged in, the area contains the mask for the login. The login is performed using the username and password pair generated during the first-time login. If the login was successful, the button for establishing a connection in the top bar changes color from red to green and the username used appears below the user pictogram on the left edge.
3.4.2 Device Tests Button name Assigned action Beep Sends a command to trigger the beeper. A single beep should be heard. Battery Voltage Sends a command to read out the voltage applied by the inserted batteries. The voltage read is displayed in millivolts. Memo Voltage Sends a command to read out the voltage applied by the inserted memory button cell.
Service Software 3.4.5 Serial /Board Number Button name Assigned action Read Serial Number Sends a command to read the serial number set in the device. The read serial number is displayed. Read Board Number Sends a command to read the mainboard number assembled in the device. The number of the assembled mainboard is displayed.
3.4.9 PWA Keys The function to read out the PWA keys state is active for all devices with firmware version ≥ 1.1.0. Button name Assigned action Read State Sends a command to read the PWA key state. It is displayed whether the keys are stored and the activation state of each key (A, B, C).
Update Flashing the device is a critical process! If the running process is interrupted, damage may occur that can only be repaired by IEM. Sends a command to flash the firmware version in the device. A confirmation window appears: Flashing the device and deleting all measurements has to be confirmed.
Legal requirements however vary from country to country and it is strongly recommended that resellers check and obey guidelines in their domestic markets. A separate calibration training program is made available by IEM and documentation is provided separately to all participants.
