what does the 1 - 6+ red lines on the left indicate? pulse? If so, does it blink on every pulse?

Yes, it does indicate a heartbeat. It also indicates that it is working and to wait for a reading.

Good morning H. Hoang - The blinking red lines means the oximeter is working. There is NO direct relationship between the "rate of blinking" and your heart-pulse rate. Your OXYGEN SATURATION and PULSE readings will be displayed on the unit. -- Mary Wong

I haven't seen it blink since I've been using it. The button is kind of weird but you just have to hold it firmly.

Besides the light flashing when you first turn it on, it does beep when the battery is low. It's a different beep than when the monitor is going off. Our batteries have not lasted very long and I've found that it will flash green when I turn it on but will die in the middle of the night so the "low battery" beeping is very helpful!

It blinks when syncing, and solid when done I believe. That's just on my MacBook Pro.

You hit the lower left button on the back (there are 4 in a square pattern). When you hit it once, a light goes on on the display in the lower right corner. This indicator is just a dot. When you hit the alarm button, it cycles through 3 states... ON, once only, and off. When the device is in the ON state, the light is a solid dot. When it is in the once only state, the light blinks. When it is off, the indicator light is off. Hope this helps you. I love mine

Yes, the pulse is listed to the right. Also, it has a memory function which is nice to compare readings.

Usually when I get errors it is because I'm not sitting still or the cuff is too loose. Sometimes when I'm doing a series of checks I have to re-tighten the cuff before it takes the next reading. Also make sure the pulse meter in the cuff (indicated by the orange or blue line or arrow with instructions) is lined up with the artery on the inside of your arm like the picture and booklet show. If it cant pick up your pulse it will give an error message too. Otherwise my monitor is operating fine. My readings are similar to what I get at the dr. office.

It has a red light that blinks every couple minutes. It's not noticeable at all even in a completely dark room.

It does show low and high heart rate. I think it does alarm when you exceed I have it turned off

Hi Kathy, I have this pulse-ox, the oxygen reading is on the top, the bottom reading is the heart rate. I use one for work. It does what I need. Bleach-rt

The red light is supposed to blink constantly. If it isn't blinking, send it back.

If you press it once it shows the pulse and the read out is constant. If you press it again then there are a few display option for the constant read out when using the heart rate monitor with the stopwatch function.

It's tone. I haven't looked through the menus to see if there was a pulse option or not. But default setting is tone.

yeah sounds like a dead pixel. problem is if it's just 1 you're SOL. I had this issue with my sony lcd and Customer Support said that they'll warranty it for 15 or more dead pixels. Luckily my friend run a PC Richard so I exchanged it. If you look close and its the shape of a rectangle on a grid then it's a dead pixel.

By the way, Leo ...... my red light does "blink" after somone has "passed by". It does NOT just stay on constantly. I wasn't sure if yours was actually "blinking" or just staying on constantly. Ed

Not sure, it just doesn't seem to sense the pulse at times. Try putting it on your thumbnail

This is a common issue with this model. Count the number of times it blinks. It is most likely that one of the internal boards need to be replaced. At least this was the case for the one I bought.
