Section 4. Basic Operation
The manual covers all operations in depth in later sections for users who already
understand the basic operation. This section gives a brief and simple walk through of the
unit set up and general operation so that the user can quickly get started and accomplish
the primary test functions. For clarity, many additional features and options are not
addressed in this section of the manual.
NOTE: The unit may automatically zero itself at 1 minute intervals so that any drift is
removed. There will be a slight audible click heard when this occurs.
Connecting To the Blood Pressure Monitor
1. Select the appropriate adapter hose using the following table and the Contents
Checklist Illustration on previous page, which illustrates the hoses and can be used as a
guideline for selecting the appropriate adapter hose:
Blood Pressure Monitor
DINAMAP
CAS Medical
Datascope
Philips Medical
GE Medical
Invivo
Colin Medical
Criticare
SpaceLabs
All Other NIBP Monitors
If none of the above adapter hoses appear to match your tubing/cuff interface and if your
cuff has a standard "Universal-style" 5/32" ID rubber hose, you can use the universal
adapter hose.
If you have questions regarding selection of the adapter hose, please contact:

2. Assuming you are using an adult cuff, wrap the cuff around the AccuPulse case just
as you would wrap it around a patient's arm. You should be able to fit a pencil between
cuff and mandrel. Please see "Wrapping the Cuff Around the Cuff Support" illustration
below:

3. Connect the longest section of the adapter "T"
hose to the pressure port on the rear panel of the
AccuPulse.
4. Disconnect the cuff from the blood pressure
monitor hose. (As if you were going to replace the
cuff.) In the case of a dual-lumen hose, only one of
the hoses will be connected to the adapter.
5. Connect the cuff to one short side of the adapter
hose "T" and the hose to the other side of the "T".
Ensure that an airtight seal is achieved on all three
couplings. Please refer to "Connecting AccuPulse to
the NIBP Monitor" illustration below:
BP Test Mode
1. Please check all connections to assure a tight and leak-free seal.
(NIBP Keypad ) BPTest mode is the startup default. If needed press the BPTest key to
change to this mode.
(Generic Keypad ) From the Main Menu, select NIBP Module <ENTER>, then BPTest
<ENTER>
2. Initiate an NIBP reading on the monitor under test.
Note: Please take at least 3 readings at each setting or follow your test procedure. The
accuracy of the first reading after the cuff is wrapped is often less accurate by 1-2 mmHg.
This can be due to the cuff "seating" during the test. After your testing is complete,
compare the readings of the monitor with the BP Preset.
Presets
To select a different Preset, Press the MENU key.
Use the Left/Right Arrow keys to choose the appropriate tab. The presets are in 2 ranges
on tabs "BP-1" and "BP-2".
Pressing an F1-F4 key selects that preset for use.
To leave press MENU again, or simply begin another reading on the monitor. With the
generic keypad the ESCAPE key is a third way to exit this menu.
NOTE: The last used preset will be remembered as the starting point and is stored across
power cycles.
Pulse Rate (PR)
To
BP
Cuff
To select a different Pulse Rate (PR), Press the MENU key.
Use the Left/Right Arrow keys to choose the appropriate tab.
Pressing an F1-F3 key selects a preset value.
