Mode 1 Impedance
Shows the impedance values, in K Ohms, of leads (RA, LA, LL, V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, V6) given during the
impedance test. The closer the value is to 0 the better the electrical connection to the patient.
Mode 2 Waveform
An entry of Mode 2 indicated that the Waveform display was accessed.
Mode 3 ID
An entry of Mode 3 (ID) means that the ID screen was accessed.
Mode 4 Recording
An entry of Mode 4 (Recording) means that the Record option was selected and that the monitoring session has
begun. The entry after this will be and Event indicating the start of the monitoring session.
