3-4. Setting printer paper (1) Remove the roll shaft and set it into the paper roll. Insert and hold the paper edge into the paper entry under the printer and press the PRINT button.
(2) Press the button again when sufficient paper comes out. Pull the paper edge out a few inches and cut it at the paper guide. Put the roll shaft with the paper back on the roller guide. Note: Cut the paper straight before inserting the paper for loading it easily. Apply slight fingertip pressure to the paper at beginning of insertion.
Caution: Do not pull paper in a direction opposite to the direction of paper feed (printing and auto loading). It may cause malfunction of the printer. In cases removing paper from printer, cut the paper at the roll side and pull the remaining paper out in the direction of paper feed. Also paper feed problems like paper jam or wrinkled paper hit by printer head or something may cause malfunction of the printer. Insert the paper correctly by following the steps mentioned above.

3-5. Measuring Blood Velocity This section explains typical operation of measuring blood velocity. Refer to “§ 5-1. Arterial and venous blood velocity modes” and “§ 4-2. Menu Mode” for mode settings of various uses. (1) Connect the probe to the probe connector. See the step# (1) in the “§.3-1. Turning the unit ON” for the details. (2) Put ultrasonic gel on tip of probe or patient skin. (3) Turn the unit on and turn the volume control to maximum. Make sure the probe selection LED illuminating corresponds to the connector you connected probe. If not, press probe selection button to change it.
Power switch Probe connector #2
(4) Press MODE button to select Mode 1 for arteries or Mode 2 for veins.
(5) Put the probe on the measurement area and move it slowly to locate the point where the maximum Doppler sounds are heard. An ideal probe angle to the vessel is approximately 45 to 60 degrees.
Wait more than 5 sec for MODE 1 (OR up to 25 sec for MODE 2) without moving probe after the maximum Doppler sounds, press probe button (or INF/DUMP button) to freeze the waveform. Press PRINT button to print the waveform, if necessary.
Probe button
Note: Function of the probe button can be selected from Freeze, Print, and Freeze & Print on PRBKey mode settings. See “§4-2-7-l.OTHERS - PRB-KEY (Probe button function)”.

(6) Headset can be used to listen to Doppler sounds. It will cut off the speaker. If you wish to save the waveform and numerical data on the memory, see “§ 4-2-7-a. MEMORY STORE”. Headset connector If you retry the measurement, press INF/DUMP button or probe button to get out of the freeze mode.
3-6. Ankle brachial pressure index (ABI) (1) Connect the cuff VC-12 to the tubing and other end of tubing to the inflation inlet as shown in the right.
Inflation inlet (2) Connect the probe to the probe connector #1 or #2. See the step# (1) in the “§.3-1. Turning the unit ON” for the details. (3) Turn the unit on and make sure the probe selection LED illuminating corresponds to the connector you connected probe. If not, press probe selection button to change it. Press MODE button to select ARM/LEG pressure mode. (ARM/LEG LED will illuminate.)
Taking Arm pressure: (4) Wrap the cuff above the elbow and apply the probe to the radial or brachial artery at an angle of approximately 45 to 60 degrees. (5) Move the probe slowly to locate the point where the maximum Doppler sounds are heard and the INF/DUMP LED will blink after a few seconds.
12
Note1: Once you locate the point, please keep the probe there until blood pressure is taken. Note2: In case INF/DUMP LED doesn't blink due to low flow or arrhythmia, press INF/DUMP button longer than 2 sec to activate cuff inflator manually in the next step #6. (6) Press INF/DUMP or probe button to inflate the cuff. The unit will stop the inflation at estimated 30 mmHg above the sound cessation and deflate the cuff at 3 to 4 mmHg/sec automatically. Note: In case the inflation doesn't stop automatically, press INF/DUMP or Probe button to stop the inflation. If an error message is displayed in the inflation and deflation processes, press any button other than probe selection button to delete the error message and go back to step #5. The LCD will show the systolic pressure when the first Doppler sound is heard and then the cuff pressure will be dumped automatically.
Press and hold MODE button and press Down (LEG/TOE) to get on MAGNIFIED waveform mode if desired. Do it again to go back to FULL waveform mode. If the systolic pressure is not satisfied, press and hold MODE and press Right / Left to move the cursor (vertical dotted line) to get it adjusted.
(7) Press ARM button to store it as the brachial pressure and the LCD will show it as shown in the right. (8) Press INF/DUMP button to go back to the measurement mode for ankle pressure.
13
(9) Wrap the cuff above the ankle and apply the probe to the posterior tibial artery at an angle of approximately 45 to 60 degrees.
Taking Ankle pressure: (10) Take the ankle pressure the same way for the brachial. (Steps #5 to #6 of this section) Press the LEG/TOE button to store it as the ankle pressure and the ABI will be displayed as shown in the right.
(11) Go to the next ankle pressure on the other side. Note: Press the ARM or LEG / TOE button more than 2 sec to clear the pressure data for the next patient.
14
3-7. Toe brachial pressure index (TBI) Optional PPG probe (PG-21) is required for this testing. (1) Take the brachial pressure in the same way as ABI. Follow steps #1 to 7 of "§ 3-6 Ankle brachial pressure index (ABI)". (2) Remove arm cuff from tubing and replace with toe cuff, DVC-1.9 or DPC-2.5 for toe pressures. (3) Press MODE button to select toe pressure mode. (TOE LED will illuminate.) (4) Connect PPG probe to the probe connector # 2 with the round polarity mark up on the probe connector (12 o'clock). (5) Press probe selection button to select probe #2. (6) Wrap the cuff around the base of the big toe and affix the PPG probe to the pad of the toe with Velcro strap. (7) Take the toe pressure the same way for the brachial. Press the LEG/TOE button to store it as the toe pressure and the TBI will be displayed as shown right. (8) Go to the next toe pressure on the other side. Note: Press the ARM or LEG/TOE button more than 2 sec to clear the pressure data for the next patient.
