The device is automatically placed into monitoring mode, while in cases mentioned later the button must be used.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.2.1. Baseline filter effect The baseline filter makes it possible to create better-than-ever quality recordings by suppressing baseline wandering. The baseline filter insures during monitoring and printing that • polarization on the electrodes and slow contact potential change, •...
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.2.3. Displaying pacemaker signal The device has a pacemaker detector, which recognizes the presence of pacemaker signal in the ECG. In this case the letter ‘P’ appears in the bottom left corner of the display. In case of a pacemaker signal the device places a marker on all channels indicating the position of the pacemaker beat.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.3. Functions in monitoring operating mode 6.3.1. Lead selection Use the buttons. The selected lead also indicates a group, when printing this group (3 channels) is printed. The group that contains the lead displayed on the screen is active.

HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.3.5. Manual amplifier blocking Use the button. Pressing this button blocks the ECG amplifier, resets the baselines that moved due to noise or inappropriately placed electrodes. Meanwhile either the word “BLOCK” in inverse, or the word “Wait…” in normal appears in the middle of the display, followed by monitoring.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual During printing the printed heart frequency is the calculated average heart frequency for the 10 seconds prior to printing, so it may differ slightly from what can be measured on the printout. Printing is not on-line. Besides the delay caused by the filters, the actual speed as the paper leaves the printer: •...
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual already on the display (in case of the 2 seconds long auto length this means that only 2 seconds prior to print start is printed). Printing stops only by pushing the button, or when the 12 channels have been printed.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.4. Record storage – the “STO” storage program This program creates an adjustable length recording from the 12 ECG leads, which is stored unconditionally. 4, 6 or 8-second long record can be created from the ECG leads.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.5. Rhythm curve storage – the “RTM” program This examination does not require the chest leads, so it is recommended to short these, for example by connecting them to the R lead. When using chest electrodes, unstable chest electrode contact during a several-minute long examination may cause problems, causing automatic blocking.
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.6. Performing analysis – the “ANL” program The analysis program collects a 16 seconds long section from the 12 ECG channels, performs R wave averaging, amplitude and time parameter calculations, and stores the following data: • a typical averaged QRS cycle from all 12 channels; •...
HeartScreen 60G User’s Manual 6.6.1. Program execution Press the ‘ANL’ button during monitoring to start the analysis program.
