The larger end of the patient cable has
three openings, marked
LA (black), RL
(green), and RA (white).
Take the white lead wire and
insert it into the opening marked
RA .
Take the black lead wire and
insert it into the opening marked
LA .
Firmly push each lead wire in until
the socket snaps into place.
When you need to remove a
lead wire, grasp and pull at the
strain relief area located near
the connecting tip.

lead wire is normally not required, but may

Insert the black LA
lead wire into one
electrode.
Insert the white RA
lead wire into the
other electrode.
