Clear Memory
Select
CLEAR MEMORY
on the
SERVICE/STATUS
submenu to clear the flash data
management memory on the A02 Memory PCB. A count-down timer appears to
indicate the clearing process, which requires approximately 30 seconds.
Specifically, it clears the following:
■
ECG data — All stored ECG data (up to 45 minutes of first-in-first-out
continuous ECG waveforms) are permanently deleted.
■
Patient reports — All stored patient reports are permanently deleted.
Clear the data management memory when the device is placed into new or
different use and the old patient data is no longer required. The data
management memory is also cleared as part of some service actions.
Note:
Clearing the data management memory is permanent; there is no undo.
To save important patient data before clearing the memory, print the
individual patient data (refer to the
Data Management
section in the
operating instructions.
