• Tips:

  • Use Lead II if signal is too low in Lead I
  • Moisten skin (area that touch electrodes) if too dry
  • Rest hands on table or thigh and keep relax
  • Use the cable when you have difficulty to get stable ECG without cable

8.3 About Reusable Electrodes

8.4 Understanding the Results

Heart Rate| The number of times your heart beats per minute calculated from the ECG.
The reference range for adults is 50-100 beats per minute in a relaxed state and higher when stimulated. Control your maximum heart rate during fitness or exercise to avoid overstressing the heart.
---|---
ECG| An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that records the heart’s electrical activity.
Regular heartbeat – the recorded ECG shows a usual and regular pattern.
Irregular heartbeat – the recorded ECG shows an erratic pattern. It may be caused by overstressing the heart or other conditions.
Poor signal| Low signal amplitude or noise. Changing to Mode II may help.
Unable to analyze| ECG recording is incomplete.

Conduced RF IEC61000-4- 6| 3 Vrms 150 kHz to 80 MHz

outside ISM bands

| 3 Vrms 150 kHz to 80 MHz
outside ISM bands| Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the system, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation appropriate for the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distances:
Radiated RF IEC61000-4- 3| 3 V/m 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz| 3 V/m 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz|

Recommended separation distances:
80 MHz~800 MHz:
800MHz-2.5GHz:
Where, P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey a, should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range b.Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

Note 1: At 80 MHz to 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the device should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the device.
b Over frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz. For Resp field strength should be less than 1V/m.
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the device
The Health Monitor is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Health Monitor can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the monitor as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Rated max. output power of transmitter (W)| Separation distance according to frequency of thetransmitter (m)
---|---
150 kHz – 80 MHz
| 80 MHz – 800 MHz| 800 MHz – 2.5 GHz
0.01| 0.12| 0.12| 0.23
0.1| 0.38| 0.38| 0.73
1| 1.2| 1.2| 2.3
10| 3.8| 3.8| 7.3
100| 12| 12| 23

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in metres (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
