3-7-5 Connecting the ECG
NOTE: The ECG may be connected to the system at any time, whether the system is powered ON or
OFF.
• To connect the internal ECG carefully push the end of the cable connector into the ECG connector
port (circular-shaped socket on the left side of the system beside the probe connectors), as shown
in
Figure 3-60 below .
The same connector is used both for external and internal ECG. The appropriate ECG cable kit should
be ordered when external ECG is to be used.
See also information on Ext-ECG Module Connector provided in "ECG Module" on page 5-39 .
NOTE: For optimal ECG operation, use only electrodes that meet universal standards - see Table 3-4 .
Use of the External Respiratory option is enabled by removal of the ECG Board and installation of the
Internal ECG/Respiratory Board. For instructions, refer to the
"ECG/Respiratory Module Assembly
Installation Procedure" on page 8-18 .
NOTE: An External ECG (Respiratory) cable should be available. This is provided by GE (Part #
2413451 - see
Section 9-5 "Cables" on page 9-6 ). Alternatively, the adaptor supplied with the
GE cable may be used to adapt an existing cable - refer to the optional connections for the
External Respiratory interface illustrated in
Figure 5-34 on page 5-43 .
