Y
ou can set the following parameters in the alarm menu:
“Dir”
Here you can set whether the setting value runs up or down when setting the alarm limits in the alarm menu. It is nec-
essary to change the setting direction if you would like to move the limits up or down.
“SPO2 ALM HI”
Here you can set an upper limit for oxygen saturation. If, during a measurement, the set limit is exceeded, the satura-
tion value appears yellow and a signal sounds (if the alarm is activated).
“SPO2 ALM LO”
Here you can set a lower limit for oxygen saturation. If, during a measurement, the set limit is undercut, the saturation
value appears yellow and a signal sounds (if the alarm is activated).
“PR ALM HI”
Here you can set an upper limit for the pulse rate. If, during a measurement, the set limit is exceeded, the pulse rate
appears yellow and a signal sounds (if the alarm is activated).
“PR ALM LO”
Here you can set a lower limit for the pulse rate. If, during a measurement, the set limit is undercut, the pulse rate ap-
pears yellow and a signal sounds (if the alarm is activated).
“Alarm”
Here you can activate (“on”) or deactivate (“o”) the alarm. If you have activated the alarm and the set upper or lower
limit is exceeded or undercut, a signal sounds.
“Pulse Sound”
Here you can activate (“on”) or deactivate (“o”) the pulse tone. If you have activated the pulse tone, a signal sounds at
every beat during the measurement.
•
To exit the alarm menu, use the function button to select the “Exit” menu item and confirm by pressing and holding down the function button.
8.4 Displaying measurement values in real time on a PC (“USB”)
Note
You can create a printout at any time during measurement
data recording by using the print function. The printout shows
the trend of the current measurement up to that point.
Note
You can view the measurement data of up to four devices at
once in the software program. In the software program, you
can enlarge the view of the individual measurement data by
selecting the corresponding measurement position number.

“USB” menu item.
•
To exit the settings menu, use the function button to select the “Exit” menu item and confirm by pressing and holding down the function button.
8.5 Recording measurement data
With the pulse oximeter PO 80, you can record your measurement data over a period of up to 24 hours. If required, the measurement data can be
stored on your computer or printed out as a report.
To record the measurement data, follow these steps:
•
Switch on the pulse oximeter and press and hold down the function button. The settings menu appears on the display.
•
Select the “Record” menu item using the function button.
•
Press and hold down the function button. The word “Time” will appear on the display. Here you can enter the current time of day so that, later on in
the PC software program, you are able to read o the time you started your recording.

If you start a new recording, the previous recording is automatically overwritten and cannot be recalled. The maximum recording duration is 24
hours.
•
To start the recording, use the function button to select the “Y” on the display and confirm by pressing and holding down the function button. The
pulse oximeter starts recording. If you do not want to start recording, select “N” and confirm by pressing and holding down the function button.
Note
If you have started a recording and return to the display, a red recording symbol appears (REC •). To save battery power, the device automatically
switches to energy-saving mode 30 seconds after the recording starts. If the pulse tone is activated, it is automatically deactivated.
•
If you press the function button briefly when in energy-saving mode, “Recording” appears on the display for 2 seconds.
•
If you press and hold down the function button when in energy-saving mode, the normal display appears.
•
“Memory is full” appears on the display when the pulse oximeter memory is full.
8.6 Uploading measurement data to a computer

9. Evaluating measurement results
WARNING
The following table for evaluating your measurements does NOT
apply to people with certain pre-existing conditions (e.g. asthma,
heart failure, respiratory diseases) or whilst staying at altitudes
above 1500 metres. If you have a pre-existing condition, always
consult your doctor to evaluate your measurements.
Decline in oxygen saturation depending on altitude
Note
The following table informs you of the eects of various altitudes on oxygen
saturation value and its impact on the human body. The following table does
NOT apply to people with certain pre-existing conditions (e.g. asthma, heart
failure, respiratory diseases etc.). People with pre-existing conditions can show
signs of illness (e.g. hypoxia) at lower altitudes.

10. Maintenance/cleaning
IMPORTANT:
D
o not use high-pressure sterilisation on the pulse oximeter!
Under no circumstances should you hold the pulse oximeter under water, as this can cause liquid to enter and damage the pulse oximeter.
•
Clean the housing and the interior rubber surface with a soft cloth dampened with medical alcohol after each use.
11. Storage
IMPORTANT:
Store the pulse oximeter in a dry place (relative humidity ≤95 %). If the humidity is too high it may shorten the service life of the pulse oximeter or dam-
age it. Store the pulse oximeter in a place where the ambient temperature is between -40°C and 60°C.
12. Disposal
Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. As a consumer, you are required by law to recycle used batteries. You can recycle your
old batteries and rechargeable batteries at public collection points in your community, or wherever batteries of the relevant type are sold.
Note
The codes below are printed on batteries containing harmful substances:
Pb = Battery contains lead,
Cd = Battery contains cadmium,
Hg = Battery contains mercury.
For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the devices including the batteries in the household waste at the end of their service life. Dispose of
the unit at a suitable local collection or recycling point. Observe the local regulations for material disposal.
Please dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any queries,
