Record; Parameter Softkeys; Waveform Softkeys; System Softkeys - Escort Prism 20401 Reference Manual

RECORD

Initiates a 16-second recording of any one or two parameter waveforms. To stop a recording in
process, press RECORD prior to completion of a manual or alarm recording. To specify the
parameters to be recorded, press the softkey(s) of the desired parameter(s) within two seconds
after pressing the RECORD key. If no parameters are selected after pressing record, a 16-second
strip of ECG waveform will be recorded.
NOTE: Active waveforms (i.e., parameters currently being monitored)
do not need to be displayed in order to acquire a recorded waveform.

Parameter Softkeys

The monitor is equipped with eleven (11) softkeys. Softkey operation changes depending upon
the monitoring mode, parameter, or configuration options being accessed. Four parameter
softkeys are located to the right of the display screen. Seven parameter/system softkeys are
located below the display screen.

WAVEFORM SOFTKEYS

These four softkeys, located on the right side of the front panel, provide access to the function
keys of the parameters displayed in the waveform display zone. ECG is always assigned to the
top waveform trace, and as many as three additional parameters, when available (i.e., installed),
can be assigned to trace 2, 3, 4, or 5 depending upon options.

SYSTEM SOFTKEYS

The function of these seven softkeys, located directly below the display screen, depends on the
label or function key displayed directly above the softkey. In the HOME PAGE state, parameter
labels and associated numeric values may be displayed directly above one or more of the
softkeys. To access the function keys for any of these parameters, press the softkey under the
parameter label and a page of function keys that relates specifically to that parameter will be
displayed.
