NOTE
It is possible (but not a normal operation), to admit a patient to both a telemetry
bed and a hardwired bed before entering Combo mode. For example, bed101*
(telemetry) and bed101 (monitor) are two separate beds for the same patient.
When you enter Combo mode in this situation, the ECG setting source is always
telemetry.
The following tables indicate the source (monitor or telemetry) of ECG settings when
entering Combo mode.

Notice that selecting Tele Defined means the ECG setting source is always telemetry
when entering Combo mode, while the ECG setting source for User Defined depends
on whether the patient is admitted to the monitor or telemetry when entering Combo
mode.
ECG setting source when exiting combo mode
When discharging from telemetry, but remaining admitted to the monitor (exiting
Combo mode), the ECG setting source (monitor or telemetry) depends on the
COMBO DEFAULT SOURCE selection.
TELE DEFINED — When exiting Combo mode, the ECG settings return to the
monitor's ECG custom defaults.
USER DEFINED — When exiting Combo mode, the ECG settings for the
current patient persist until the patient is discharged from the monitor.
For both the TELE DEFINED and USER DEFINED options, when discharging
from the monitor (exiting Combo mode), but remaining admitted to telemetry, the
ECG settings for the current patient persist until the patient is discharged from
telemetry.
