6 Transmitting and Faxing Auto ECGs

5Transmitting ECGs

The cardiograph can transmit Auto ECGs to the Agilent M1765A ECG Manager

and to a Group III facsimile machine.

You cannot transmit Rhythm ECGs. You can only transmit Auto ECGs that have

been stored.

Three typical ECG transmission situations are:

• An ECG transmitted from the cardiograph at the bedside to the Agilent M1765A

ECG Manager for printing, overreading and storing.

• ECGs recorded on rounds and then transmitted to the Agilent M1765A ECG Man-

ager in another area of the institution.

• An ECG sent to another institution for overreading or further analysis.

Equipment connected to the cardiograph’s RS-232 connector can cause

ground leakage current exceeding the maximum specified in IEC60601-1

safety standards. Do not connect any equipment to the RS-232 connector

during cardiograph operation when the patient cable is connected to a

patient.

If non-Agilent recommended data transmission cable is used, the cardio-

graph may not meet the Radiated Emission Standard found in CISPR 11.
