User’s Manual
®
FloPoint Elite Uroflow System
Displays, Controls, and Indicators
Chirp Down: The urine flow has ended and the Remote has stopped receiving data from
the FloSensor.
High-pitched Repeating Beep:
The Remote is not receiving data from the FloSensor. This alert is triggered if data
transmission from the FloSensor is interrupted for 0.2 seconds. This condition is likely
due to radio interference and can usually be remedied by moving the Remote closer to
the FloSensor. The Remote must be used within 3 meters of the FloSensor.
Siren Chirp:
During calibration, the siren chirp sounds after a successful calibration. At this point, the
Remote must be returned to the ScanPoint® Docking Station to complete the calibration
process.
Error Chirp:
During calibration, the error chirp plays after a change in calibration. Another calibration
must be performed to confirm the change in calibration.
During exam start up, the error chirp will sound if the Remote cannot make contact with
the FloSensor.
FloSensor Indicators
The FloSensor contains a beeper that communicates device
status. The FloSensor will sound a beep under following
conditions:
Š
Motor starts
Š
Motor stops
Š
Every 3 seconds when the FloSensor and the Remote
are in radio contact and are ready to measure and record
a uroflow exam. This can signal to the patient that it’s
okay to begin voiding.
NOTE: The clinician should advise patients that the
FloSensor will beep every 3 seconds to indicate normal
operation and is not a cause for concern.
