4.2 2 How to Use
There are several measurement methods as shown in the following pictures
Caution: You shall ensure that the electrode fully contact the skin.
4.3 Menu Operations
1) Start-up
Long press the on/off key for 3 seconds, you will hear a beep sound and see the
screen lighting. The device will keep level off when not measuring.
2) Start measurement
After start-up, the device will enter into pre-sample interface. Please use the cor-
rect measurement method as guided, the ECG waveform and heart rate will dis-
played on the screen, as shown in Figure 4.1.The calculation method of heart rate:
number of heart beats without interference in ECG fragment is set as N, then the
calculation formula of heart rate is as follows:
HR=60000/(Sum of R-R intervals during numbers(N) of heart beats/N )
Figure 4.1 Pre-sample Interface
When the waveform becomes stable, the device will start formal sampling automat-
ically, sample time countdown on the bottom right corner begins until nished one
time sample and the color of sample time turns to red. See Figure 4.2:
Figure 4.2 Formal Sample Interface
The device will enter into case review interface after completed sampling. Case
review interface displays the sampling start time and heart rate. See Figure 4.3.
Figure 4.3 Case Review Interface
When the device enters into case review interface, it will display the latest sampled
case. Click the button to review other cases information. The device can store
100 pieces of cases at most. If reaches to the limit, new stored case will cover the
original case, the one that stored at the earliest, piece by piece.
The device will automatically turn to sampling interface to continue if the user hold-
ing the electrode at both ends again when the device is under the case review
interface.
