I. Introduction The AFT1000 is an ECG (Electrocardiogram) Holter recorder using an internal flash memory. The AFT1000 records 1, 2 or 3 tracks of ECG in standard quality (250Hz/10µV) or in High Quality (1000Hz/2,5µV). The recorded data are transferred via a USB2 "High Speed" (480Mbauds) cable to a PC running the “Quick Reader®”...
"QuickReader". The software has it's own guide. Look at if there is a new version of this software on the Download page of Holter Supplies web site. An After Sales Service file to fill in case of failure (directory SAV).
