Manual Purpose
The X12+™ digital ambulatory transmitter user manual explains how to:

Acquire and transmit 12-lead ECG signals to a receiving device

Setup device configurations
NOTE: This manual may contain screen shots. Any screen shots are provided for reference only and are
not intended to convey actual operating techniques. Consult the actual screen in the host language for
specific wording.
Audience
This manual is written for clinical professionals who are expected to have a working knowledge of medical
procedures and terminology as required for monitoring cardiac patients.
Indications for Use

The device is indicated for use in a clinical setting by a physician, or by trained personnel who are acting on the
orders of a licensed physician. It is not intended as a sole means of diagnosis.

The device is indicated for use to acquire and output electrocardiographic data obtained during physiologic
stress exercise testing.

Indicated for use as a radiofrequency physiological signal transmitter, receiving and delivering real-time
acquisition and RF transmission of simultaneous 12-lead ECG data while allowing the patient to be ambulatory.

The device is indicated for use on adult populations, typically symptomatic.

The device is not intended to be used as a vital signs physiological monitor.
System Description
The X12+ represents state-of-the-art wireless electrocardiographic technology. It provides a means to acquire and
transmit 12-lead cardiac signals without direct connection to an electrocardiograph. Design innovations implemented in
the X12+ achieve real-time acquisition and RF transmission of simultaneous 12-lead ECG data with diagnostic quality
to a Mortara receiver module while allowing the patient to be ambulatory.
In addition, by using a very high monitoring frequency to transmit cardiac signals, the diagnostic bandwidth of the
signals is maintained.
The X12+ affords the patient complete freedom of movement. Unlimited range can also be obtained with the addition of
Mortara’s antenna network box(s).
The X12+ uses a single AA alkaline battery.
The following equipment is necessary to use the X12+:

One AA battery, 1.5V

Mortara receiver module with antennas

Patient cable

Antenna network
