Printing
To print the patient data stored in a monitor:
1. Install the AutoPrint Utility on a PC.
a. Insert the Propaq LT Monitor PC Utility Program in the CD-ROM drive of the PC.
b. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the AutoPrint Utility.
2. Connect the PC to a cradle (Propaq LT Monitor Charging/Communications Cradle),
using the supplied USB cable.
Each time a monitor is inserted into this cradle while the cradle is connected via USB
cable to the PC, the patient data stored in the monitor is printed on the default printer.
Patients monitored continuously for 24 hours typically generate enough data for a 2-
or 3-page trends table of two panels per page. For example, a 24-hour report with the
following data (192 rows) would cover three pages:
• 96 rows of vital-signs data (4 intervals/hr = 4 rows per hour) for 24 hours
• 48 NIBP readings (2/hr)
•48 SpO
2
spot-check readings (2/hr)
