Tempus Pro User/Operator Manual - 41-2001EN-00 – Page 61
The picture below shows the Tempus monitoring Lead II and Lead I (using a 5-lead cable). Each ECG trace
is labelled in the top left. The heart rate is shown on the right hand side for the uppermost trace.
6.1.5 Monitoring ECG with a 12-lead cable
Diagnostic 12 lead ECG is an option on the Tempus Pro. You can use a standard 12-lead ECG cable or a
12-lead modular cable (a 4-lead cable connected to an additional 6-lead cable). The cable terminates in a
4 mm snap style connector for use with normal disposable electrodes – see “12 Accessories list of the
Tempus Pro”.
To view a 12-lead ECG, the ECG settings must be changed as shown below.
If the 12-lead ECG Cable is attached but the 12-lead View is not selected on the screen, then the Tempus
will remain in standard ECG monitoring mode and will continue to show two waveforms on screen.
Two types of cables are provided for compliance with AAMI and IEC guidelines. For details of part numbers
of cables, see “12 Accessories list of the Tempus Pro”.
