Error Codes

E 02 Batteries depleted. Code appears when the
battery capacity is insufficient for new BP
measurements. The device differentiates
between two states: the memory has just been
cleared (i.e., the battery test is performed with a
higher drain to ensure that fresh batteries will be
inserted at the beginning of the measurement) or
measurements have already been taken.
E 03 Measurement time over. Code is displayed after
a measurement duration of 180 seconds.
E 06 Inflation time over. The maximum inflation time
of 130 seconds has elapsed. This condition
indicates a leak in the cuff or tubing, or a
defective connection to the blood pressure cuff.
E 07 This code appears
– when the device could not determine a
systolic value although the cuff pressure was
already increased twice
– when the current cuff pressure would exceed
the selected maximum pressure.
E 08 200 pressure measurements taken; storage
capacity exhausted.
E 14 Diastolic reading below 40 mmHg. Code
appears when the cuff pressure has dropped to
40 mmHg and no diastolic pressure could be
identified (TONOPORT V does not measure
diastolic pressures below 40 mmHg).

Error Codes
E 15 Motion artifact during diastole detection.
E 17 Internal hardware error. Please contact your
local, authorized dealer
(http://gehealthcare.com).
E 18 Systolic reading outside measuring range.
E 19 Diastolic reading outside measuring range.
(Codes E 18 and E 19 are displayed when the
systolic and diastolic values are outside the
range in which oscillations were detected.)
E 21 Difference between systolic and diastolic
pressure too small (10 mmHg or less).
E 22 Motion artifact during systole detection.
E 24 No systole detected in the provided time frame.
E 26 Systolic reading below measuring range.
E 27 Systolic reading above measuring range.
E 29 Insufficient number of oscillations detected: For
a correct measurement, the system must detect a
minimum of 8 oscillations. Tighten the cuff so
that one finger, but not two, can be inserted
between the patient's arm and the cuff. At the
same time the device switches to a deflation rate
of 4 mmHg/s. When it detects more than 13
oscillations later on, the rate changes to
6 mmHg/s.
