When an electrode is off the patient the unit will not start in
Automatic mode (if the Override function is disabled, see Chapter 10,
“Automatic Mode” ).
When the unit is powered up, it defaults to the Automatic mode (this
default setting can be modified).
1. Before recording the ECG, patient data can be entered ( ). It is
recommended that you enter the patient's name so it appears on
every report.
2. After applying the electrodes, wait about 10 seconds for the signal to
stabilize (stabilization of polarization voltages, see Chapter 4,
“Artifact Due to Poor Electrode Application” ). If you initiate a
recording with immediately after selecting the Automatic
mode, the message Collecting data displays, and you will need to
wait for 10 to 12 seconds.
3. Before initiating a recording, check the display for error messages.
Check all electrodes; if the message persists, there must be a break
in the patient cable. Replace the cable with a new one.
4. Initiate a recording with . The MAC 1200/1200 ST acquires
all 12 leads simultaneously for 10 seconds, and then generates a

The device can be set up to allow a recording only when specific
patient information has been entered (last name, first name, ID,
Secondary ID, Chapter 10, “Patient Data Menu Setup” ).
