NOTE: Electrode configuration will vary depending on the type of
leadwire set you are using. Refer to "Three-leadwire
Configuration" below.
Right arm and left arm electrodes should be placed just below the right and left
clavicle.
Left leg electrode should be placed on a non-muscular surface on the lower
edge of the rib cage.
The molded 3-leadwire sets can be placed in the 5-lead Multi-Link patient
cable.
Standard Molded 3-leadwire Set (Rotating Reference)
•
Selectable lead I, II, or III cable with a rotating reference (right arm,
left arm, left leg).
Operation of the monitor with this standard cable allows you to select one
of three leads (I, II, or III) for monitoring.
When using the standard, 3-leadwire configuration, the following operating
conditions occur:
•
LD ANALYSIS automatically switches to single lead analysis. If an
attempt is made to change to multi-lead analysis, a message "NOT
POSSIBLE WITH 3 LEAD CABLE" will appear briefly and no change
will occur.
•
DISPLAY LEAD choices are limited to I, II, and III.
•
Any options usually allowing more than one ECG lead selection will be
disallowed. A message line is displayed briefly, indicating such.
