Trends and Calculations

When you press, you'll hear a beep as the calibration

pulse appears in the displayed waves. The event label softkeys and the softkey disappear. In the time period between the softkey being pressed and it disappearing from the screen, parameter numeric values are not collected and alarms are not active. The calibration pulse will stay on the screen for the length of time it takes a waveform to move across the screen. If the waveform is fixed, the calibration pulse will be overwritten. The Freeze Waves key under Change Screen can be used to freeze the screen to allow close

examination of the waveform(s) and calibration signals.

Pressing during a recording produces a calibration pulse on that recording (in addition to the calibration wave that routinely appears at the beginning of the recording).

The calibration pulse does not appear in the Vital Signs or Graphs display.
