Start recording
The recording duration is 40 seconds. During this time, breathe
steadily, refrain from jerky body movements, and avoid changing the
device's position on the chest.
During recording, every heart beat (R-R’) is accompanied
acoustically by a short beep.
The device also detects if an electrode has no skin contact. As soon
as an electrode loses skin contact during recording, the heart beat
will not be detected anymore. The beep does not sound until all four
electrodes have skin contact and the heart rhythm is detected again.
