The system initiates the ECG acquisition. The recording runs until it is stopped

• The system indicates the elapsed time once the recording starts.
• In case of 12-channel lead, the acquisition can be analyzed if more than 10 seconds
were acquired.
• The indication of the heart rate depends on the selected type of calculation.
2. Click Stop or press F2.
After you stop the recording, the system saves the last 10 seconds as an ECG
strip, and
analyzes the strip if the recording has all 12-channel leads. The strip is analyzed if the
acquisition time has reached 10 seconds.
