5. I could not complete the install of Omron IC Diskette Software for the HEM-747IC unit. The message stated additional memory is needed. How do I complete the install?
You need to download from Microsoft website for additional memory for the PC. Go to: http://Support.microsoft.com/support/downloads/DP2722.ASP. This information will give you enough memory to complete the install.

Go to Tools, Options,and make sure Auto Detect is selected. Unplug the cable to the monitor, then replug the unit in and make sure the unit is turned on before sending schedule to device. If you have palm pilot or hot sync make sure these devices are turned off. If these are turned on it will interfere with sending schedule to device. If you are using a Gateway computer you must attach the cable to the hard drive first, then install the software. You can also change the RS232 cable and if this still does not work, send the unit to our repair department, it may be the blood pressure monitor itself.

Go to Tools, Options, click on Report Tab, and make sure all component boxes are checked off and then click OK. If you still receive Range Check Error, you will have to print each window (Report) separately by opening each report sheet and then click on the printer icon. After you shut your system down you should not have this problem.
