CALIBRATING, PLEASE WAIT (ERR# 10). The Propaq Encore periodically recalibrates
the NIBP channel to ensure it can properly make NIBP determinations. Normal
monitor operation continues while the NIBP channel is calibrating. If the NIBP channel
has not updated its calibration in 15 minutes, the channel will briefly deactivate until a
new calibration has occurred.
LOW BATTERY, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 11). The battery lacks sufficient voltage to be
able to operate the NIBP channel. Connect the Encore to the ac power adapter.
SERVICE REQUIRED, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 12). Have the monitor serviced.
CUFF TOO LARGE FOR PATIENT MODE (ERR# 13). The monitor detects a cuff too
large for the current patient mode. First, verify the patient mode. If the patient mode
is correct, make sure the cuff fits snugly. If this alert occurs in Neonatal Mode, change
the patient mode to Pediatric Mode and check alarm limits. If the alert occurs in
Pediatric Mode, change to Adult Mode and check the alarm limits. Note that different
pressures and retries are used for each mode as stated in
“NIBP” on page 104.
KINKED OR NEONATE HOSE (ERR# 14). This message occurs when the neonate
hose is detected in adult patient mode. Change the hose or the patient mode
selection.
ARTIFACT PRESENT, MINIMIZE ARTIFACT (ERR# 15). The monitor has detected too
much artifact to allow accurate readings. Take steps to reduce artifact. Position the
patient’s limb away from the body so the applied cuff is not in contact with the
patient’s body or any other object such as a bed rail. If the Smartcuf motion artifact
filter is on, make sure that the ECG leads are properly connected to perform ECG
monitoring during NIBP. If the Smartcuf motion artifact filter is off, consider turning it
on (and connect ECG if not already connected).
The following messages can appear in the NIBP status window.
CALIBRATING. The NIBP channel is running an internal calibration.
DISABLED, LOW BATT. See LOW BATTERY, NIBP DISABLED above.
NIBP DISABLED, SERVICE REQUIRED. See SERVICE REQUIRED, NIBP DISABLED
above.
RETRY. Since the Propaq Encore did not receive a valid NIBP reading, it will
automatically attempt to take another reading.
The following message can be displayed if the monitor detects a system error.
REMOVE CUFF FROM PATIENT. See page 75.
