To ensure that electrical safety is maintained during operation from AC (~) power, the device must be plugged into a hospital-grade outlet. Only use parts and accessories supplied with the device and/or are available through Burdick/Mortara/Quinton. Patient acquisition devices intended for use with the device include series resistance (9 Kohm minimum) in each lead for defibrillation protection.

The ELI 280 is a medical device that has been designed to be connected to other devices for the purpose of receiving and transmitting data. Certain measures must be taken to prevent the risk of excessive electric current flow through the operator or patient when connected: ...
Page 13
USER SAFETY INFORMATION The device has not been designed for use with high-frequency (HF) surgical equipment and does not provide a protective means against hazards to the patient. When the 40 Hz filter is used, the frequency response requirement for diagnostic ECG equipment cannot be met.
The rechargeable internal battery is a sealed lead-acid type and it is totally maintenance free. If the battery appears to become defective, refer to Mortara Instrument Service Department. Do not pull or stretch patient acquisition device as this could result in mechanical and/or electrical failures.
Page 15
USER SAFETY INFORMATION The display of a thick baseline while using the AM12 acquisition module (square waves on rhythm printout) could be due to an improper auto-calibration. Reconnect the AM12 or power cycle the electrocardiograph. A square wave on the display and rhythm printout could be due to the WAM, the AM12, or lead wires not being connected to the patient.

EQUIPMENT PREPARATION Figure 2-4 The paper tray spacer should be parallel with the rear wall of the paper tray. Figure 2-5 Gently press paper tray spacer in place. Gently press on the top three plastic arms to remove the paper tray spacer.
When line voltage is removed the device immediately switches to battery power. Operating on AC Power Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet and into the AC connector on the rear panel of the ELI 280. (Reference Figure 1-3.) ...
The ELI 280 automatically turns off after 15 minutes in Stand-by mode when on battery power and no patient is connected. The ELI 280 also turns off when battery voltage becomes too low. The operator can force the ELI 280 to screen.
Select Done to save and exit, or Cancel to exit without saving. Select Done again to return to the real-time display. Time Synchronization The SYNC feature allows time synchronization to occur only when the ELI 280 is interfaced to a product which supports ELI Link or E-Scribe. Select from the real-time display.
To use the WAM, refer to the WAM user manual. To use the AM12, refer to the AM12 short-form instruction card. The ELI 280 must be configured at the factory for use with the WAM. If the ELI 280 is configured for use with the WAM, the two devices must be paired to function properly.
A good minimum-impedance pathway will provide superior noise-free waveforms. High quality silver-silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) electrodes similar to those provided by Mortara are recommended to be used. TIP: Electrodes should be stored in an air-tight container. Electrodes will dry out if not stored properly which will cause loss of adhesion and conductivity.

RECORD AN ECG For accurate V-lead placement and monitoring, it is important to locate the 4 intercostal space. The 4 intercostal space is determined by first locating the 1 intercostal space. Because patients vary with respect to body shape, it is difficult to palpate the 1 intercostal space with accuracy.
The patient demographic labels available are determined by the ID format selected from the configuration settings. In addition to short, standard, and long patient ID formats, the ELI 280 also supports a custom ID format. The custom ID format designed in ELI Link or E-Scribe can be downloaded to the ELI 280. Additional information about the custom ID can be found in ECG Directory or in the ELI Link and E-Scribe user manuals.

When the barcode scanner is programmed to parse several demographic values from a barcode, the user may scan the barcode from the main screen. When a barcode is scanned from the main screen and the ELI 280 detects multiple lines of text, it automatically jumps to the patient demographics form and copies the values into the form.
RECORD AN ECG ECG Display Setup – Individual ECG The Display Setup screen allows the user to set the following display configurations for an individual patient: display format, display speed, display (ECG) gain, and display (ECG) filter. Access these configuration choices by pressing anywhere on the touchscreen’s real-time ECG waveform.

RECORD AN ECG Press . The real-time ECG view is then replaced with the acquired ECG view. The default real-time ECG view is not available in the acquired ECG view for navigation purposes. NOTE: When Mandatory Fields are configured, and not populated at time of acquisition, and the “Done” button is selected, the user will be presented with a message requiring an acknowledgment prior to proceeding or exiting to home screen.
Configuring the ECG Report The ELI 280 can automatically print up to nine copies of the ECG report following acquisition. Print format, trace speed, ECG gain, ECG filter setting and pacer channel can be set as a default in the Configuration menu, or configured per ECG by touching the red grid screen display.
You can print a rhythm strip of the real-time ECG viewed on the display. Rhythm strips from the real-time ECG display can be acquired with the patient connected to the ELI 280 and after patient identification information is entered. A rhythm strip may also be printed without entering the patient ID by NOTE: Printed rhythm acquisitions are not stored in the ELI 280.
NOTE: Telephone transmission is available with internal modem only. NOTE: In order to properly connect to telephone lines, the ELI 280 internal modem needs to be set on the proper country code. This is an internal setting and should not be confused with International calling codes.
Select Advanced. Select Modem. Connect an active telephone line cable to the telephone jack, located on the back of the ELI 280. Confirm the telephone number in the configuration settings. Internal Modem Initialization The modem initialization string code is configured for the country where the system was shipped. If the system is relocated to a different country the modem initialization string code will need to be reprogrammed.
