Displays the ECG status (refer to page 49).
Displays the PCG status (refer to page 50).
Shows the detected PCG level using a four-level meter. For optimum
measurement, the meter should be lit to at least the third level before
measurement starts. Measurement can be performed even if the meter is
only lit to the second or first level, but accuracy may be reduced. If the
meter is only lit to the second or first level, adjust the position of the PCG
sensor or use the PCG sensor weight (refer to page 46).
If the patient uses a pacemaker, select "ON". The pacemaker setting
reverts to "OFF" at the end of measurement. Select "ON" each time you
perform a measurement.
Displays the patient's heart rate.
Displays the ECG wave. The ECG display gain is normally set by auto-
gain. However, when the pacemaker setting is turned "ON", the gain is
fixed at 10 mm/mV.
Displays the PCG wave.
This prints the R-R interval exam report.
Use this to measure fluctuations in the interval between heartbeats in
order to check the functioning of the automatic nerve system for the
cardiovascular system (refer to page 65).
