How do I reboot my ReliOn b/p monitor when I keep getting E1

If you are experiencing an E1 error message on your ReliOn blood pressure monitor, it may indicate a problem with the device or its components. To reset or reboot the monitor, you can try the following steps:

Remove the batteries from the blood pressure monitor.
Wait for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Reinsert the batteries into the monitor, ensuring that they are properly installed and secured.
Turn on the monitor and attempt to take your blood pressure reading again.
If the E1 error persists, it may indicate a problem with the cuff, tubing, or other components of the blood pressure monitor. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician for further assistance.

It is important to ensure that the monitor is functioning correctly and accurately before relying on its readings. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns about your blood pressure readings or monitor.

My Blood Pressure comes up with E1 - what does this mean?

An E1 error can mean a number of things depending on the brand of your monitor and the way that you are trying to take your blood pressure. The general reason for E1 errors is to announce for whatever reason that the machine could not get a blood pressure reading.

Some common causes:
You did not let all of the air out of the blood pressure cuff before trying to take your blood pressure. Make sure that there is no air in the cuff by squeezing it or rolling it, prior to use to let out excess air.

Your blood pressure cannot be taken at this time. Sometimes this occurs if you are very nervous, overly excited, or have a fast heart rate. You can try sitting down and relaxing prior to taking your blood pressure.

You are using the wrong size cuff. If you are taking blood pressure on a small child, someone with a tiny arm, or someone with a large arm, the blood pressure cuff might not get an accurate reading. Many blood pressure monitor manufacturer's offer blood pressure cuffs ranging in size from small to extra large, and you should use the cuff that is most appropriate for the size of your arm.

You didn't line up the blood pressure cuff correctly on your arm. You can't just slap the cuff on your arm and expect it to work, it has to be lined up properly. Many companies put an arrow on the cuff to give you an idea with positioning.

You need to try a different spot on your arm. Occasionally some people cannot give a blood pressure reading on their upper arm for a variety of reasons, and you should try getting a reading on your lower arm.

If you are still having trouble with your blood pressure cuff, take your monitor with you to your next doctors appointment so that your doctor can show you how to use the monitor correctly.

How do I fix a homedics BPA-201 Digital Blood Pressure Monitor. Or who do I send it to be fixed. It keeps displaying E1. But I checked all cuffs connections and they are fine.

Are you moving your arm at all after you press the start button. I just have a wrist cuff, but if I move anything after I've pushed the start button I get an error code.

When the blood pressure monitor reads E- error. What is the reason? Not keeping the wrist still?

It depends on which E-error you're getting.

EE - indicates several things:
  • Cuff has been placed incorrectly. Always place cuff on wrist 1" above heal of hand.
  • Did you talk or move during measurement?
  • Shaking of the wrist with the cuff ON.
E1 - Air circuit abnormality. Measure again.

E2 - Inflation pressure exceeding 300 mmHg. Switch the unit OFF.Wait 1 minute, then measure again.

E3 - Error determining measurement data. Measure again.

Hope this helped you to determine which Error you're receiving. Please let me know.
