How to Use - Basics

A clear overview of what TrainingMonitor.App does, what it doesn't do, and why it's free.

What TMA Is (and Isn't)

Five foundational concepts — sessions, permissions, the Apply logic, real-time sync, and no-save — that make the rest of TMA make sense.

Core Concepts Before You Start

The fastest path from zero to a running simulation — start here if you just want to try it.

60-Second Quick Start

A map of every page on TrainingMonitor.app, what each one is for, and how they fit together.

The Pages of TMA

The fastest path from zero to a running simulation — start here if you just want to try TMA now.

A map of every page on TrainingMonitor.app, what each one is for, and how they connect.

A complete guide to every control on the instructor remote: ECG rhythms, vital sliders, display toggles, alarms, battery, INOP, and all action buttons.

The Controller — Control Vital Signs

Everything on the student-facing screen: the vitals layout, waveforms, alarms, AED trainer panel, the DEVICE OFF state, and the Viewer QR code.

The Display Monitor

How to manage sessions, share Viewer and Controller access, promote or remove users, and understand the full permission model.

Session Management

The most important behavior in TMA explained: the two-column vital system, what Apply does, why it works this way, and what bypasses it.

The Apply Logic — Why Nothing Updates Until You Press It

How sessions work under the hood, the three permission levels, auto-generated usernames, multi-session control, and every way to join a session.

Sessions, Users, and Permissions

How TMA's hospital-grade alarm model works: warning vs. crisis thresholds, patient population presets, battery states, INOP sensor disconnects, and audio controls.

The Alarms & Battery System

How to enable and run the AED training panel, the full shock workflow, how Shock Outcome works, and how to reset between scenarios.

The AED Trainer

How TMA's blood pressure model works: the hidden-until-measured model, 15-second cycle, AUTO modes, BP history, and the Clear BP Hx button.

NIBP — Blood Pressure Behavior

How Trend Apply mode works: animating vitals from current to target over 3–300 seconds, pause/play controls, what can't be trended, and mid-trend behavior.

Vital Sign Trending

Seven proven ways instructors use TMA: orientation, skills check-offs, rhythm quizzes, parallel lab stations, make-up labs, remote simulation, and classroom TV demos.

Common Classroom Workflows

Answers to the most common questions and problems: Apply not working, session ID issues, DEVICE OFF, vitals showing dashes, alarm audio, and more.

Troubleshooting & FAQs

Definitions for every TMA-specific term: Apply, Controller, Viewer, Session ID, INOP, NIBP, Trend Apply, V/NV, and more.
