If an INOP interrupts monitoring and alarm detection, the measurement numeric will be replaced
by
-?-. If an INOP may lead to unreliable measurement values, a ? appears next to the numeric.
The measurement labels and abbreviations for pressure, temperature, SpO

, and VueLink INOP
messages are explained in the individual measurement chapters.
