Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP)/Data Send Mode/Data
Stream Mode

The operator has the ability to activate the SET (Arrow Up) button to perform additional functions.
These functions are mutually exclusive, and include:

The ability to display the Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) when the SET- Arrow Up button is
pressed.

The ability to send patient data to the Monitor’s serial port when the SET- Arrow Up button is
pressed.

The ability to stream patient data to the Monitor’s serial port whenever patient data is stored into
the Monitor’s memory.

To activate the additional functionality of the SET- Arrow Up, press both the START button and the
POWER button simultaneously. This activates the Monitor’s internal configuration mode. After the
current software versions are displayed on the Monitor, press the REVIEW button 7 times. The cur-
rent functionality of the SET- Arrow Up button will appear in the systolic and diastolic displays. Use
the SET- Arrow Up button to toggle through the four choices.

When the desired functionality is displayed, press the REVIEW button, then turn the Monitor off. To
turn the Monitor on, press the POWER button. The desired functionality of the SET- Arrow Up but-
ton will now be operational.

 AP” (MAP-Mean Arterial Pressure) indicates that pressing the SET- Arrow Up button will cause the Mean

Arterial Pressure (in mmHg), to be displayed and printed while a valid blood pressure measurement is dis-
played. Mean Arterial Pressure data cannot be sent to the serial port. This is the default mode of the Welch
Allyn Vital Signs Monitor.

“nO Op” (no operation) indicates that the SET- Arrow Up button has no additional

functionality.

“SEn dAt” (Send data) indicates that pressing the SET- Arrow Up button sends patient data to the
Monitor’s serial port. In normal mode, the most recent data set is sent to the serial port when the
SET- Arrow Up button is pressed. In REVIEW mode, the currently displayed data set is sent to the
serial port when the SET- Arrow Up button is pressed.

“Str dAt” (Stream data) indicates that streaming data mode is functional. This mode allows patient
data to be sent to the serial port automatically whenever such data is stored into the Monitor’s
memory. To initiate streaming data mode during normal operation, press the SET- Arrow Up button.
“Str On” in the systolic and diastolic displays indicate that streaming data mode is operational. To
turn streaming data mode off, press the SET- Arrow Up button again. “Str Off” in the systolic and
diastolic displays indicates that streaming data mode is no longer operational.
