A Setting Up Your Cardiograph
Before using your cardiograph for the first time you must prepare it by per-
forming the following tasks:
l Check the voltage setting
l Install the battery
l Connect the power and patient cables
l Load the paper
Also, performing the following tasks is strongly recommended:
l Set the keyboard to uppercase or lowercase mode
l Set the cardiograph location and ID codes (Options #A05 or Stress-
Writer only)
l Connect the modem and transmission cables (Options #A05 or Stress-

l Setup the telephone directory for transmitting and receiving ECGs
(Options #A05 or StressWriter only)
l Set the Predictive Instruments application (PageWriter 300pi only)
In addition, you may want to configure the cardiograph to suit your specific
application. See Configuring Your Cardiograph for more information.
Checking the Voltage Setting
Your cardiograph can be set to operate at a nominal line voltage of 115 or 230
Volts (see the following Note). The line voltage was set at the factory to the
setting for your area. However, it is a good idea to check this setting before
operating the cardiograph. To check the voltage setting, perform the following
steps.
1. Locate the voltage select switch on the back of the cardiograph. See Fig-
ure A-1 for the location of the switch.
