9. THE ECG
GENERAL INFORMATION
In order to display an ECG in the programmer’s application software ‘Module’, the
programmer can be connected with a compatible wireless ECG device via Bluetooth.
The tablet-based programmer has been tested for compatibility with selected wireless ECG
devices. For detailed information about the wireless ECG devices that are compatible with
the programmer, please contact your company representative.
PAIRING THE WIRELESS ECG DEVICE WITH THE PROGRAMMER
1. Turn on the ECG.
2. In the ‘Manager’ software screen of the programmer tablet, under the tab ‘Settings’,
select ‘Bluetooth’. All Bluetooth devices captured by the programmer are displayed.
3. From the listed devices, select the ECG device which is to be paired, and press the ‘Pair’
button.
4. Enter the Passcode for the ECG device in the text field of the pop-up window. The ECG
Passcode can be found in the ECG manufacturer’s user manual. Press the ‘Confirmation’
button to start the pairing process with the programmer software.
The programmer can only be paired with one ECG device at a time. In case multiple ECG
devices are used with the same programmer, unpairing the ECG used in a preceding session
before pairing a different ECG device will be necessary. In this case, press the ‘Unpair’ button
next to the device which won’t be used in the current session before pressing the ‘Pair’ button
next to the ECG device that will be used in the current session.
When using the same ECG device during successive sessions, repeating the steps described
above is not necessary. In this case, the programmer software will automatically pair with the
ECG via Bluetooth.
STARTING THE ECG DISPLAY
Before interrogating the implanted device, ALWAYS verify that the serial number of the
wireless ECG attached to the patient corresponds with the serial number of the ECG
displayed in the ‘Manager’ software screen of the programmer. The programmer may have
captured the signal of a different wireless ECG device used in close proximity and paired
with it.
The Bluetooth communication link is very low power and therefore unlikely to interfere with
cardiac pacemakers. To preempt any interference, it is recommended to locate the ECG
distant from the immediate vicinity of the heart.
1. Interrogate the patient’s implanted device. The ECG will automatically be displayed in
the application software ‘Module’ screen after interrogation.
2. The display will end when switching off the ECG, when the battery runs out, or when the
display is stopped by the software.
