System Beep Signals
The SureStepPro Bedside Unit uses beeping signals to indicate various stages in the testing procedure. These signals do not indicate that the procedure is being performed correctly. The unit can detect some, but not all, errors in the test procedure.
•A single short beep sounds each time a selection is made or a button is pressed on the screen.
•Three short beeps sound when a test result is displayed.
•A single, long beep accompanies error messages and errors that are detected in the test procedure, as well as CRITICAL HIGH, CRITICAL LOW, and HIGH results. This beep is also used at various times during the test strip insertion stages of the test.
A configuration option may be set to turn Off most beeps except error beeps and the touch screen feedback beep.
