Are you referring to the heart rate numerical reading changing colors?  If so that indicates what source the heart rate reading is coming from.  The heart rate can be obtained from the ECG waveform, the spo2, or the NIBP.  It will normally attempt to obtain the heart rate from the ECG rhythm first if that is available, then the SPO2 and then the NIBP last.  Please let us know if this helps or if you have further questions.
