Recommendation/Possible Solution
ECG MODULE NOT
RESPONDING!
Message appears after
starting a new ECG test. No
ECG tracing is displayed on
the screen.
The program cannot communicate with the ECG module because it is
not on, not connected to the computer, or is connected to the wrong
port.
NOTE for PDA users: If you are using the same COM or USB port for
the ECG module and the PDA, exit the syncing program before
running the IQmark Digital ECG program.
NOTE for Touchscreen Display users: If you are using the same
COM or USB port for the ECG module and the touchscreen display,
close or disable the touchscreen driver before running the IQmark
Digital ECG program.
Verify that the ECG module is connected to the correct serial
port. Refer to Sections II-B and II-D.
For Valentine ECG module: Verify that the ON LED on the ECG
module is lit. If not, push the power button.
For Valentine ECG, verify that the Low Battery LED is not blinking.
If it is, install new batteries.
For IQmark Digital ECG module: Verify that the LED on the top
cover is green. If the LED is red, install new batteries. If there is a
symbol on the module, you may need to press it to turn on its
power.
ECG SECURITY KEY NOT
FOUND
Message appears after
clicking Analyze. This
message only appears when
using the Valentine PC-ECG
module and not with the
IQmark Digital ECG module.
IQmark Diagnostic Workstation cannot find the Security Key for the
Valentine PC-ECG because it is either not installed or there is a conflict
with the parallel port.
Verify that the Security Key is installed directly on the parallel
(printer) port of the computer and that the printer cable is
connected to the back of the Security Key. Ensure that the printer
is on and ready (or online).
Print from Windows Notepad or any text file to verify the parallel
port is working properly with the Security Key installed.

LEAST 2 REPORTS FOR
SERIAL COMPARISON

Message appears after
clicking the Serial
Comparison button.
