To adjust the neoBLUE mini light to the desired intensity when changing the distance, please refer to the service manual. The light intensity output of the neoBLUE mini device is measured at Natus prior to shipment with the Ohmeda BiliBlanket® Meter II. Because your facility may use a different photometer to measure the light intensity output, it is necessary to understand how your reading correlates to the Ohmeda reading.
