EMO-80 Sleep Oxygen Monitor

1. Introduction 

EMAY EMO-80 is a recording pulse oximeter with built-in data storage & alarm. It supports two modes: continuous recording & spot check.

The oximeter itself has recording capability to record your SpO2 & pulse rate every second throughout the night without the need of a smartphone.

You can manually switch it from recording mode to spot-check mode.

The oximeter will alert you with audio alarm when your SpO2 drops below the threshold (88%). The SpO2 threshold of alarm can be adjusted on the device.

We provide free EMAY app (for iOS & Android smartphones/tablets) to download your record- ed data to further review, and export the report to share with your doctor. (You can also export the data for OSCAR software)

The oximeter requests 2 AAA batteries, and will last for 3-4 nights’ continuous recording, which equals to 24-30 hours battery life depending on the quality of batteries that you purchase.

Please understand the power consumption is huge under the recording mode as the oximeter records every second throughout the night.

9. FAQ


9.1 How to set/update the time & date of the oximeter ?
Simply connect the oximeter to the EMAY app on your smartphone, its time & date will be updated automatically. Make sure to connect and update its time & date every time right after you have changed the batteries, otherwise it will resume to 2000-01-01. (Old data with wrong time/date will remain the same and can not be changed.)

9.2 Fail to connect the oximeter to the app ?
• Do not put your finger into the oximeter when connecting.
• Make sure the Bluetooth on your smartphone is turned on.
9.3 How to keep the oximeter on my finger throughout the night ?
We have provided the accessary “finger strap” to keep it on finger tightly (refer to 5.5) . If it still doesn’t work, try a medical tape to wrap the oximeter around your finger.

9.4 Why there are gaps/blank areas (without data) on my report ?
The gaps/blank areas are artifacts mainly caused by drop off, movements or roll-overs during sleeping. They are normal and will not affect the final results on your report.

9.5 How to interpret the results on my reports ?
Two most important data on the report are “ODI4%” and “Avg SpO2”. When ODI4% exceeds 10, that’s when you should pay attention to, it indicates possible mild sleep apnea. The higher is the number, the more severe is the apnea. Average SpO2 ideally should not go below 94.

ODI4% < 5 (Normal)
ODI4% 5-15 (Mild sleep apnea) ODI4% 15-30 (Moderate sleep apnea) ODI4% > 30 (Severe sleep apnea)

(Note: Again, the report & data is for your reference only, please consult with your doctor to diagnose and confirm. )

9.6 How to import the data to the OSCAR on my PC ?
• First, please export the .SpO2 file from the EMAY app. (Report -> Data List -> Export -> Send in .SpO2 -> Share it to your PC by email.)
• Second, import the .SpO2 file to OSCAR. (There is instruction on the app, clickat the left upper corner on the app -> User Manual -> How to export SpO2 data to OSCAR. )
