5-11-2-1 General description (cont’d)
The three inputs are separately isolated due to safety requirements.
The module extracts respiration from ECG signals from the ECG/Respiration input.
The scanned image that is displayed, is synchronized with the ECG, respiration and phono traces. In
M-Mode or Doppler, the traces are synchronized to that particular mode's sweep. The operator can
control the gain, the position and the sweep rate of the traces using the assignable controls.
AUX is capable of handling a pulse/pressure signal.
