2.6. Manual Programming
The OMRON M24/7 can be programmed with using its buttons, without using a
PC.
Programming Options
There are three different measurement plans which may be selected in case
of manual programming. These plans are stored in the device’s inside memory
and they cannot be changed. The ¿ rst plan which is also the default one in
the OMRON BP Tracker Software, measurements every 15 minutes during
daytime and 30 minutes during night. The second one provides less frequent
measurements with 20 and 40 minutes respectively. The third version is based on
30 minute measurement intervals, independent of the time of day.
Other settings are the same in case of all three plans: cuff size not set, pressure
limit 300 mmHg, enabled LCD display and disabled day/night shift. Daytime starts
at 6:00, night time starts at 22:00, special session is disabled. Measurement
period is exactly 24 hours.
Measurement Timing
The ¿ rst measurement has a controlling purpose and it starts in the second
minute after the programming, then in the next ¿ ve minutes there are no
measurements. The rest of the measurements are taken at speci¿ c 15/20/30/40
minute intervals and there are measurements at the 6:00 and 22:00 hour shifts.
The last measurement is exactly 24 hours after the second measurement. Patient
information can be selected or added later in the OMRON BP Tracker Software.
Manual Programming Step by Step
1. Push the measurement (triangle) and the day/night shift (moon) buttons
simultaneously.
2. Keep them pushed, in 10 seconds the measurement options will be
displayed for 3 seconds each along with the measurement frequencies.
Then the clock will be displayed.
3. In order to choose the measurement plan, you must release the buttons
while that plan is displayed. You will hear two beeps and the LCD will display
four blinking “o” (oooo for four seconds). The process of programming
takes approximately four seconds, then you will hear ¿ ve beeps. For
¿ ve seconds, the chosen plan will be displayed again for con¿ rmation. If
programming fails for some reason, the E90 error code will be displayed
on the LCD.
In case of manual programming there is no time setting, as the PC would be
responsible for time synchronizing. If the time setting is imprecise then the time
of measurements may be false. If you would like to use the manual programming
function then do not leave the device without batteries for a longer period. If
you do so then program the device with the PC once and then leave the batteries
in it, so the time can be set by the PC.
