measurement episode (triplicate measurements), you are advised to
wait for one hour and perform another measurement episode (triplicate
measurements). If the AFIB symbol appears again, then you are
advised to visit your doctor. If after repeated measurement the AFIB
symbol is no longer displayed there is no cause for concern. In such
case it is recommended to measure again the next day.
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
atrial fibrillation indicator
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
analyses pulse irregularity during measurement. The device is
clinically tested.
The AFIB symbol is displayed after the measurement, if atrial
fibrillation occurred during measuring. If the AFIB symbol
appears after having performed a full blood pressure measure-
ment episode (triplicate measurements), the patient is advised to
wait for one hour and perform another measurement episode
(triplicate measurements). If the AFIB symbol appears again, we
recommend the patient to seek medical advice.
The device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves
to detect atrial fibrillation that often remains undiagnosed until
stroke occurs.

Keep the arm still during measuring to avoid false readings.

This device may not detect atrial fibrillation in people with
pacemakers or defibrillators.

6. Traffic Light Indicator in the Display

The bars on the left-hand edge of the display BN show you the
range within which the indicated blood pressure value lies.
Depending on the height of the bar, the readout value is either
within the optimum (green), elevated (yellow), too high (orange) or
dangerously high (red) range. The classification corresponds to
the 4 ranges in the table as defined by the international guidelines
(ESH, AHA, JSH), as described in «Section 1.».

7. PC-Link Functions

This device can be used in conjunction with a personal computer
(PC) running the Microlife Blood Pressure Analyser (BPA) software.
The memory data can be transferred to the PC by connecting the
monitor via a cable.
If no CD and cable is included download the BPA software from
www.microlife.com and use a USB cable with a Mini-B 5 pin
connector.

Installation and data transmission

1. Insert CD into the CD ROM drive of your PC. The installation
will start automatically. If not, please click on «SETUP.EXE».
2. Connect the monitor via the cable to the PC; there is no need to
switch the device on. 3 horizontal bars will appear on the
display and last for 3 seconds.
3. The bars will then flash to indicate that the connection between
PC and device is successful. As long as the cable is plugged in,
the bars will keep flashing and the buttons are disabled.

During the connection, the device is completely controlled
by the computer. Please refer to the «help» file for software
instructions.

8. Data Memory

This device automatically stores the last 200 measurement values.

Viewing the stored values

Press the M-button 2 briefly, when the device is switched off. The
display first shows «M» AS and an average value. The device then
switches to the last stored value.
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing
the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored
value to another.

Memory full

Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 200
memories is not exceeded. When the 200 memory is full,
the oldest value is automatically overwritten with the
201st value. Values should be evaluated by a doctor before
the memory capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.

Clearing all values

If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored
values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been
switched off beforehand) until «CL» appears and then release the
button. To permanently clear the memory, press the M-button
while «CL» is flashing. Individual values cannot be cleared.

9. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol AR
will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery
displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you
should obtain replacement batteries.
