Can it be run for at least 10 minutes continuously? ... and what is the "high" pulse reading that activates the alarm (can that be manually set)?

I do know it can be run continuously longer than ten minutes. Don't know about the high pulse reading.

As far as I know, I believe it will run 10 min. continuously. I haven't really tried to. The pulse reading must get to 91 or 92 before the alarm stops. I hope this helps.

It can run for 10 minutes as long as the batteies are new. The high pulse reading is set by you. I don't use it but remember seeing that in the instructions. Try going on line to the manufacturer to see if you can get the operating instructions.

I've had this only a short time and use it infrequently. As long as a finger is in the device, it should stay on. But once the finger ids removed, it will turn off after 10 seconds. Alarm adjustments that can be made in the 'setup' mode for the oxygen level and the pulse rate. The highest pulse seems to be 240 The settings can be a little tricky to make since the instruction leaflet is not very clear. However, it seems well to be well made and does work well. It uses two readily available AAA cells, which is a plus.

Honestly I didn't know that was an option. I really don't think there is one. I am currently at work and will try to remember to look when I get home. I assumed the alarm was preset and/or just went off when levels exceeded above normal levels.

This alarm will NOT alert you that it has been set off... it's only $16... it's just an alarm. If you want something that will alert you in any way, it's going to cost quite a bit more money I'd imagine.

There are two different alarm settings, but you have to manually set one or the other. The functionality is there but not what I would call automatic. Regardless, we are happy with the clock after having it a couple years.

There is not a traditional timer on it. You can set it to run for certain number of hours once it senses darkness. But not to turn on at 6 come off at 10.

The life of the batteries (two AAA) depends on how often the Pulse Oximeter is used. I don't know about setting the alarm as it defaults to below 93% and that is the level we are monitoring.

I don't think so. It automatically shuts off completely, even the radio, after about 1 hr. 45 minutes or so in the morning when using the alarm feature.

You would need to download an Alarm app to use it. The alarm function runs through the device.

Yes, it has both a high and low heart rate alarm. You can set your low range and your high range to stay in your target zone. If you are trying to stay below a rate, set the low below your resting heart rate (then it won't go off), then set the high at your limit.

I don't think you could use it that way. The alarm function is designed so it can be set for 5 separate times each day. Example: 6 AM, 10 AM, 2 PM, 6 PM, 9 PM.

there is no alarm function. you just have to look. however it will track your bpm for up to 24 hours straight.

Would it be possible to set continuous 10 minute intervals, without having to push a button or reset it after each 10 minutes? - thanks!

Good morning. I regretted having bought this alarm. It was a waste of money and would have returned it if only I could at that time. I hope this answers a question in your mind about the reliability of this sensor.

I have had mine for years and years but I can't really answer! I use the alarm sound which will go off ten separate times probably 30 sec. Or so apart. I have had on since around 1978-ish and am only on my second one. I t is set for 4 separate alarms. I love the convenience of being able to grab my alarm and a couple containers when we go to my son's for an overnight. Good size too for the purse don't you agree? If you haven't purchased it yet I suggest you do. Enjoy.

the manual says it has to be out of range for more than 15 min. to prevent false alarms from opening the door. I pulled the sensor from the frig. and set it on the counter and the alarm sounded in about 5 minuets. I set my alarm a couple of degrees above the highest max temp the frig. reached after testing it for a few weeks. haven't had any alarms.

Thanks to your question, I just discovered that it could. Set it at zero & push start/stop. It's a good timer. Hope this helps. - Guy

The alarm goes off for about 60 seconds (I've never timed it. I seems to last a long time.) It's plenty of time for me. If you want to go take a shower or something, though, you could miss it, I suppose.
