To change the polarity:
1. Push  or  to highlight the Polarity value.
2. Push .
3. Push  or  to highlight + or - in the list.
4. Push  to set the polarity and go back to the TV Paced Settings screen.
Push the Back softkey to go back to the ECG: TV Paced screen.
Advance Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) Waveforms
The Product can simulate Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) waveforms.
To simulate an ACLS waveform:
1. From the ECG screen, push  or  to highlight the Wave Group value.
2. Push .
3. Push  or  to highlight ACLS in the wave group list.
4. Push .
5. Push  or  to highlight the Waveform value.
6. Push .
7. Push  or  to highlight a waveform in the list.
8. Push to set the waveform and go back to the ECG: ACLS screen.
You can adjust the amplitude of all ACLS waveforms. See Set the ECG
Parameters. You can also add ECG signal artifacts to each arrhythmia signal.
See Simulate an ECG Artifact.
ECG Performance Tests
As well as physiological waveforms, the Product can supply signals to measure
the performance of an ECG monitor. A set of performance waveforms are used
to measure the frequency response (high and low), sensitivity, gain drift, internal
calibration, stylus damping, paper speed, linearity, and sweep speed of an ECG
monitor. Three more Product functions are used to measure R wave detection,
QRS detection, and tall T wave rejection of an ECG monitor.
Set a Performance Wave
The waveforms in the performance wave group are sine, square, triangle, and
pulse.
Note
When a performance wave is set on the Product, outputs for
respiration, blood pressure, and temperature are disabled.
The four waveforms used for ECG performance tests are, sine, square, pulse,
and triangle. You can adjust the rate and amplitude of these waveforms to
preconfigured values. To output a performance wave:
1. Push  to show the ECG screen on the display.
2. Push  or  to highlight the Wave Group value.
3. Push .
4. Push  or 
to highlight the Performance value in the wave group list.
5. Push  to show the ECG: Performance screen in Figure 8 on the display.
