Beat2Phone ECG Instruction Manual
Tapping the Marker symbol brings up a list of annotation types to select from.
Annotation time refers to the time the dialog is opened. After an annotation has
been made, the application returns to the annotation view.
NOTE! Use the “Free comment” or “Audio annotation” options to provide
feedback on any uncomfort during the measurement, including skin irritation.

The patient can also return to the Monitoring view during measurement by open-
ing the application and tapping the Open Monitoring symbol in the Annotation
view. The live ECG signal is shown in the monitoring view until the screen is
turned off. In the Monitoring view, patients can make annotations and stop the
measurement.
The patient can stop measurement by selecting the Monitoring view and tapping
the Stop symbol. The application sends a “Do you want to stop monitoring” mes-
sage to confirm stopping the recording. The user can then discard the message
or stop the recording. In addition, this message reminds the user of un-trans-
ferred sensor recordings older than 14 hours and/or that the sensor battery
charge is low and needs charging.
When the measurement has stopped, detach the sensor from the electrode strap
and place it in the charging dock connected to a DC power supply. Remove the
electrode strap. Clean and nourish skin after removing the electrode strap.
The ECG recording is stored in the sensor memory and can be read by the appli-
cation.
NOTE!
When the sensor memory is full, the sensor will begin overwriting old
recordings with new ones, effectively destroying old recordings. Remember to
transfer recordings from the sensor to the mobile device after recording for 24
hours to avoid losing any recordings.
