32 Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs
Spot Vital Signs beeps once after reaching the final temperature. The temperature
display area displays the patient temperature. Spot Vital Signs displays the current
temperature for two minutes after the probe is placed back in the holder. The display
then goes blank (unless another measurement is active).
If Spot Vital Signs displays a probe position icon during the temperature
determination, the temperature display alternates between the final predicted
temperature and the letter “P”.
To switch to Monitor Mode after obtaining a reading, leave the probe in place after
obtaining a reading and press the Mode button once. The temperature display shows
an “M” to indicate Monitor Mode. Once in Monitor Mode proceed to Step 5 on
page 33.
7. Remove the probe after the temperature measurement is complete and firmly press
the ejection button on the top of the probe to release the probe cover.
8. Return the probe to Spot Vital Signs and wash your hands.
