The ready screen displays the serial number of the 

SpotOn sensor and indicates the SpotOn sensor 

cable and sensor are properly attached to the SpotOn 

control unit. The SpotOn sensor is now ready to be 

attached to the patient.

A flashing yellow temperature display indicates the 

sensor has been connected to the patient and to the 

control unit and is in the process of equilibration. 

The graph below the temperature output indicates 

the progress of equilibration. This process will take 

approximately three minutes. 
If you see a temperature in the upper left hand corner 

of the screen, that is the last recorded temperature that 

has been captured by the sensor on the patient’s head. 

The sensor captures and records a temperature every 

five minutes.
After the equilibration is complete, the patient’s body 

temperature is displayed on the SpotOn control unit 

in bold white numbers and can be automatically 

transmitted to the patient monitor via the monitor 

cable. 

The running screen displays the deep tissue 

temperature of the patient in white. The trend graph 

at the bottom of the screen displays the last two hours 

of the patient’s temperature in five minute increments. 

The bars on the graph will begin filling from the right 

with the 36°C always visible. The blue bars indicate 

that the temperature dropped below 36°C (white 

indicates the temperature is above 36°C).

The SpotOn control unit error screen displays when 

there is a system error. Discontinue use of unit. 

Contact a biomedical technician.

The sensor error screen displays when there is a 

temperature sensor or cable error. See “Section 4: 

Troubleshooting” on page 15 for details.
