To perform the Respiration performance test:
Step
1
Connect the ECG patient cable to the ECG connector on the side of the
monitor.
2
Configure the patient simulator to:
• ECG sinus rhythm
• HR = 80 bpm, or a rate of your choice
3
Connect the other end of the ECG patient cable to the patient simulator.
4
Verify that the displayed ECG wave and HR value (± 2 bpm) correlate to
the values you selected on the patient simulator. For an HR of 80 bpm, the
displayed value on the patient monitor should be between 78 – 82 bpm.
5
Redo the test, selecting several heart rates on the patient simulator: 160,
80, 100.

rpm) are the same as the values you selected on the patient monitor:
between 38 – 42 rpm.
3
If you do not get the expected results, see “ECG/Respiration
Measurement Problems” on page 4-9.
