Patient Category and Paced Status
The patient category setting determines the algorithm the monitor uses to process and calculate some
measurements, the safety limits that apply for some measurements, and the alarm limit ranges.
The paced setting determines whether the monitor shows pacemaker pulses or not. When Paced is
set to No, pace pulses are filtered and therefore do not show in the ECG wave.
