This device automatically stores up to thirty (30) blood pressure
and pulse measurements in memory. Measurements stored in
memory are assigned an index number in the order of the newest
to the oldest. The oldest reading displays as “n01” .
To retrieve readings, follow these simple steps:
1. When the display screen is blank, press and quickly release
the Memory (“M”) button. You will see the index number
(e.g. n20) of the newest reading followed by the measurement.
The UA-787 automatically turns off after several seconds.
2. If you want to retrieve other measurements in memory, press
and quickly release the Memory (“M”) button repeatedly until
the desired index number is reached (e.g. n14). The
measurement will then be displayed.
To clear the measurement history from memory, press and hold
the Memory (“M”) button for at least 3 seconds. You will see the
M symbol appear in the lower left corner of the display. At the
end of the process, the M symbol will flash and disappear.
If there are no measurements in memory, you will see the index
number “n01” followed by a measurement of three 0's displayed
vertically.
Note: Stored measurements will be lost if batteries become low or
are removed.
ABOUT MEMORY
The UA-787 blood pressure monitor provides a blood pressure
and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat
occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies
by 25% from the average of all heartbeats during the blood
pressure measurement. It is important that you be relaxed, remain
still and do not talk during measurements.
NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
indicator frequently.
