Can this be used for continuous monitoring, or do you have to push the button every time you want a reading?

Once you remove the finger you have to start over by pushing the button. However as long as the finger is in the monitor it continues to read as the heart rate or oxygen changes.

per instruction manual, this is not to be used for continuous monitoring. Would work for short while as it registers as long is on finger but not sure how long that would be; several minutes or until battery is depleted but definitely not for a long period of time.

Yes, it will stay on and monitor until you hit the reset button which will turn off the device. Hitting the button again will turn on the device.

Yes. The key is in pressing the light blue memory button on the BP monitor, AFTER printing the first readout. If you need multiple readings from multiple days, hit the print button on the printer following each press of the memory button.

Mine always automatically turns of after a couple of minutes of idle time. But all you have to do is push the power button and it will again take three readings and give you the average.

I work as a Registered Respiratory Therapist this device is a part of my everyday quick check for patient monitoring and assessment. To answer your question, no there is no button. When the device is placed on any finger or thumb it will automatically come on. The infrared located within the device picks up the pulse circulated through the blood and read an approximation of the individual actual oxygen saturation and heart rate. These reading can be + or - 2-5 off the normal ranges. These ranges depend on the individual disease process. For a more accurate result a arterial blood gas needs to be performed.

I can use it for watching heart rate & O2 sat, I have not used it for more than a couple of mins., but I do shut it off and do not wait for it to 'log off' . It can be moved from one hand to the other w/o shutting it down...Hope that helps ?

No, never. But I have never forced it. If you keep it to monitoring purposes, it has worked for me.

I use temperature monitoring on a multi-sensor and it provides updates every 20-30 minutes, I believe, unless there is a serious change in temperature.

That's a good question. Not really sure. It seems to need a couple presses of the button every now and again but I'm not sure what the reason is for that

It does have a hold function button in any mode, but it is a manual mode. So it wont catch the high or low reading on its own and hold it. You have to manually push the button when you want it to hold the reading.

Pretty sure you would have to continually re-set it to start over again. It pumps up, releases, displays your reading. You could certainly just continually do that for an hour or two thus getting readings every minute or so.

The push button seems OK. I have not pushed it all that much. I, too, had failures of the intermatic unit that is similar to this unit. I ran into "OP" failures. So far the unit works well.

I didn't get one with mine, I just looked at picture to make sure I had it in right. Then you just press the middle button and it will start, when it get through it will give you a reading and turn off by itself, it also stores your reading. I really like mine,

Doesn't seem to be... it is all digitally controlled, I dont have to do anything except not overfill and push the button. It turns off itself because everything is timed. I am using it a lot and no problems at all so far.

It works continuous. It also has a min/Max button. My unit is fairly accurate and works very well.

Reflective light readings are a push the button, the meter take the reading and display it until you push the button again. It's displayed until you either take another reading or shut the unit off. It does not read constantly, as analog light meters used to.

There should have been a setup sheet with the scanner with bar codes that represent settings or options. If you bar read the one called trigger the Device will beep and the unit will only scan when trigger is pulled. There is an opposite bar code for constant on called continuous changes mode to that. Hope this helped.
