16 Getting started Welch Allyn Propaq Encore Vital Signs Monitor
You can select up to three waveforms to be shown on the Propaq. When only one
waveform is selected, a trend window automatically appears below the waveform. While
changing Propaq Encore settings, a status window may appear below the waveform.
Propaq Encore buttons
The four buttons at the sides of the screen are reserved for the most commonly used
functions.
The five buttons below the screen, and their associated labels located on the screen,
provide access to the menus.
Later in this manual, the notation A , B , C is used as a shorter way to say “Press Button
A, then B, then C.”

can be simultaneously displayed, while
numeric values are continuously updated.
ALARMS Silences or resumes alarm tone.

automatically vent the cuff.

connected).
FREEZE/UNFREEZE Freezes or “unfreezes” the waveforms. If only one or two
waveforms are displayed and you press FREEZE, the frozen
waveform(s) are shown along with an active waveform so you
can continue to monitor the patient’s condition.

level menu.
