

Sometimes the device will detect atrial fibrillation even when 

it is not there. This can happen if the arm moves during the 

reading or another rhythm problem is present. Keep the arm 

still during the reading. Visiting your doctor with this device 

may be necessary to check out any rhythm problems.



This device may not detect atrial fibrillation in people with 

pacemakers or defibrillators.

6. PC-Link Functions

This device can be used in conjunction with a personal computer 

(PC) running the Microlife Blood Pressure Analyser (BPA) software. 

The memory data can be transferred to the PC by connecting the 

monitor via a cable.

If no CD and cable is included download the BPA software from 

www.microlife.com and use a USB cable with a Mini-B 5 pin 

connector.

Installation and data transmission

1. Insert CD into the CD ROM drive of your PC. The installation 

will start automatically. If not, please click on «SETUP.EXE».

2. Connect the monitor via the cable to the PC; there is no need to 

switch the device on. 3 horizontal bars will appear on the 

display and last for 3 seconds.

3. The bars will then flash to indicate that the connection between 

PC and device is successful. As long as the cable is plugged in, 

the bars will keep flashing and the buttons are disabled.



During the connection, the device is completely controlled 

by the computer. Please refer to the «help» file for software 

instructions.

7. Data Memory

At the end of each measurement, this device automatically stores 

the result, including date and time.

Viewing the stored values

Press the M-button 

2

 briefly, when the device is switched off. The 

display first shows «

M

» 

AS

 and then a value, e.g. «

M 17

». This 

means that there are 17 values in the memory. The device then 

switches to the last stored result.

Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing 

the M-button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored 

value to another.

Memory full



Pay attention that the maximum memory capacity of 200 is 

not exceeded. 

When the memory is full, the old values 

are automatically overwritten with new ones.

 Values 

should be evaluated by a doctor before the memory 

capacity is reached – otherwise data will be lost.

Clearing all values

If you are sure that you want to permanently remove all stored 

values, hold down the M-button (the device must have been 

switched off beforehand) until «

CL

» appears and then release the 

button. To permanently clear the memory, press the M-button 

while «

CL

» is flashing. Individual values cannot be cleared.

8. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol 

AR

will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery 

displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you 

should obtain replacement batteries. 

Flat battery – replacement

When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol 

AR

 will flash as soon 

as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot 

take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment 

AT

 at the back of the device.

2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the 

symbols in the compartment.

3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in 

«Section 3.».



The memory retains all values although date and time must 

be reset – the year number therefore flashes automatically 

after the batteries are replaced.

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the 

atrial fibrillation indicator

This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also 

analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The device is 

clinically tested.

The AFIB symbol is displayed after the measurement, if atrial fibril-

lation occur during measurement. If the symbol appears more 

frequently (e.g. several times per week on measurements 

performed daily) we recommend the patient to seek medical advice.

The device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves 

to detect atrial fibrillations at an early stage.
