Frequently Asked Questions
Can this unit be used on adults and pediatrics?
It is intended for spot-checking or attended-care monitoring of adult or
pediatric patients with a finger width between 0.3 – 1.0 inch (0.8 – 2.5 cm) thick.
How long can I wear this unit?
The Onyx is not recommended where motion is expected or for relatively long term
monitoring (e.g. more than 30 minutes).
Where does the unit take a reading?
It is designed for use on fingers (other than the thumb). The index finger is the
recommended site.
How do you know you’re getting an accurate reading?
The tricolor LED display (m) provides a visual indication of the pulse signal
quality, while blinking at the corresponding pulse rate. This display changes
colors to alert you to changes in pulse quality that may affect the readings: green
indicates a good pulse signal, yellow indicates a marginal pulse signal, and red
indicates an inadequate pulse signal. Allow the Onyx to stabilize, observing
about 10 seconds of continuous green-colored pulse quality before relying on the
displayed values. It is common for the displayed values to fluctuate slightly over a
period of several seconds. If the pulse quality display blinks yellow or red, try
another finger.
What is the typical battery usage?
Two 1.5 volt AAA-size batteries power the Onyx for about 2,500 spot checks or
21 hours of continuous operation.
How does the unit display low batteries?
When batteries are low, the numeric displays flash once per second. Replace
low batteries as soon as possible.
How do you replace the batteries?
- Hold the Onyx II as shown at left, pressing upward and then pulling outward
slightly with the thumb to release the device’s battery tray. - Remove the battery tray and the old batteries, disposing of the batteries
properly. - Insert two new 1.5 volt AAA-size batteries. Follow the polarity markings (+) and (-) as illustrated. Proper positioning of the batteries is essential for Onyx II
operation. - Carefully guide the battery track back onto the Onyx II, pressing downward
and pushing inward slightly to re-secure the batter tray, Do not force it into place;
it fits only when properly positioned.
