External Connection

A serial interface (RS232) is standard equipment on the XRCISE STRESS ECHO MED.

Please note! Some ECG devices cannot be connected with the XRCISE STRESS ECHO

MED. Call +49 (6331) 246187 for more information.

Control of the ergometer by external devices:

For control by external devices (ECG, PC, etc.), the corresponding data protocol must be

selected first. The data protocol is set by the installer. If the initialisation is received through

the interface, the XRCISE STRESS ECHO MED automatically changes to the operating

mode „external control" („ECG no." and the protocol number will be shown in the middle of

the display). It is not necessary to select the menu item. In addition, the recognised control

characters will be displayed for checking purposes. Unknown commands will be shown as „

/ „. Printing is not supported during external control.

If disturbances occur between the ECG device and the bike ergometer, potential compensation

can be installed (see Chapter 5.4).

Data protocols:

Use the interface cable to connect the XRCISE STRESS ECHO MED with the external

device (ECG, PC etc.). Then the correct data protocol needs to be set:

You are in the main menu. Access the service menu by pressing the PLUS and

MINUS keys at the same time. Select the „RS232 Interface" function.

Use the PLUS/MINUS keys to select the desired protocol (00, 01, 02,...) and confirm

your selection with the START key. The protocol selection is saved for further use.

Use the STOP key to return to the main menu at any time.

If the initialisation is received through the interface, the XRCISE STRESS ECHO MED

automatically changes to the operating mode „external control". In addition, the recognised

control characters will be displayed for checking purposes. Unknown commands will be

shown as „ / „. Printing is not supported during external control.
