Notice
iii
Like all electronic devices, this cardiograph is susceptible to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Electrostatic discharge typically occurs when electrostatic energy is transferred to
the patient, the electrodes, or the cardiograph. ESD may result in ECG artifact that may
appear as narrow spikes on the cardiograph display or on the printed report. When ESD
occurs, the cardiograph’s ECG interpretation may be inconsistent with the physician’s
interpretation.
ESD discharges to exposed metal on the rear of the cardiograph can occasionally cause an
error message to appear on the cardiograph display. The cardiograph returns to normal
operation after turning the power off, then on again.
The data transmission cable must have a suppression device attached to assure the
cardiograph’s compliance with the European Radiated Emissions Standard found in
CISPR 11. If your data transmission cable does not include a suppression device,
compliance can be achieved by attaching one of the following suppression devices to the
cable, near the cardiograph:
