3. Battery

• How to charge the device?

4. Is there any maintenance that needs to be performed on the device?

Inside the finger chamber there is a lens, to get correct and accurate results you need to make sure that the lens is clean.

5. How does the device work?

Unlike traditional invasive Hb devices (Hemocue, EKF etc.) that require a blood sample, the MTX/VSM uses four LED lights to shine wavelengths from visual light through the fingertip. As the light waves pass through the fingertip some of it is absorbed and the light signal is changed. A camera sensor detects the light signal in real time. Using patented algorithms and a vast amount of data, the device analyzes the correlation between the signal and bio-parameters.

6. How long will it take until the results appear on the screen?

The results will appear on the screen after a few seconds, but it is recommended to wait for at least 45 seconds until the device stabilizes.

7. Why is it important to warm up the finger before measuring?

The device depends on the blood flow in the finger. When the finger is warm the blood flow through it increases, thus improving the measurement.

8. How can I know which software version is on my device? Is there a newer version?

• Options – > Product Info – > Firmware version.
• Open Cnoga Firmware Upgrader (CFU) on your PC. Connect the device to your home PC. If there is a newer version, you will get a notice to upgrade the device. If not, you have the most up-to-date version.

9. Can I save results on the device? What is the maximum number of savings? Where can I find saved measurements in the device?

• To save the results of a measurement on the device, when the measurement is stopped, press the button next to the floppy disk sign
• The device can keep up to 500 measurements.
• To find previously saved measurements, open the main menu by a long press of the bottom button and select ‘History’. The saved measurements are listed by date and time. You can change the presented parameter by pushing the topmost button.
