    Error No.    Possible cause(s)
    Err 1        No pulse has been detected.
    Err 2        Unnatural pressure impulses influence the measurement result. Reason: The arm 
                 was moved during the Measurement (Artefact).
    Err 3        The inflation of the cuff takes too long. The cuff is not correctly seated.
