Sensor Battery Insertion / Replacement
CAUTION:
1) Use only batteries supplied by LifeWatch for the sensor.
2) Replace the sensor battery only when the sensor and the
cell phone monitor are within 20 inches (50 cm) of each
other, so that a connection can be established. A low
sensor battery message begins when there are up to
three hours before the battery fails. As soon as you
replace the sensor battery, the sensor and cell phone
monitor will connect and the sensor will download stored
ECG data to the cell phone monitor. After the download is
completed, the sensor will start recording again. If for
some reason connection is not established within 5
minutes, please call LifeWatch.
3) If the sensor battery is replaced when the sensor is out of
Bluetooth range from the cell phone monitor, the sensor
will not be able to record (including manual events) until
the sensor is within Bluetooth range of the cell phone
monitor. Once in range, the connection will be renewed
after a few minutes.
4) If the sensor battery has been changed while
disconnected from the cell phone monitor and
within
the
maximum recording time of the sensor (ACT I up to 2
hours; ACT III up to 6 hours) then upon reconnection to
the cell phone monitor the sensor will download the stored
data to the cell phone monitor and will not record until the
download is finished.
5) If the sensor battery (ACT I firmware version 0.1g and
ACT III firmware version 1.0.4) has been changed, while
disconnected from the cell phone monitor and
after
the
maximum recording time of the sensor (ACT I up to 2
hours; ACT III up to 6 hours) then upon reconnection to
the cell phone monitor the sensor will start a new
recording that will immediately overwrite the stored data
(stored data not downloaded).
