Preliminary Steps
The Analyzer measures electrical parameters, as described below. These
voltages and currents are a natural phenomenon, and their presence within
reasonable limits does not constitute a hazard. However, it is necessary to
measure their values to determine if there is a significant change from previous
measurements or from the device specifications.
Figure 2-1 is a block diagram of a typical line-operated instrument with patient
connections. All measured parameters are labeled, and the following topics are
keyed to the labels in the diagram.
