5. Press the Exercise key to enter the exercise phase, and then observe the ECG waveforms,
heart rate, blood pressure, the patient's state and ST trend during the exercise test. If the stress
BP monitor is connected, the patient's blood pressure is measured once at a phase, and you
should print or save an ECG report after the main screen displays the BP value.
6. When the target value is reached, such as the target heart rate, press the Recovery key to
enter the recovery phase, and then instruct the patient to walk on the treadmill for 1 minute.
Observe the ECG waveforms, heart rate, blood pressure and the patient's state during the
