Beat2Phone ECG Instruction Manual
When the sensor is being charged, the ECG electrodes cannot be connected,
and ECG measurement is not possible. The sensor memory, however, is reada-
ble by the mobile application during charging using the BLE wireless connection.
During charging the sensor’s white LED indicates that the sensor is charging.
Green LED indicates a fully charged sensor. An Orange LED indicates failure to
charge. If no Sensor LED is lit, check the charger connection.
Once the green LED is lit, the battery is fully charged, and the sensor shall be re-
moved from the charging connector.
Do not store the sensor in the charging connector disconnected from mains
since the battery will drain through the mains adapter. It is best to keep a fully
charged sensor disconnected until it is taken in use and connected to the
Beat2Phone ECG electrode strap placed around the chest.
Use the procedure described in
Shutdown procedure
if the sensor is unused for
extended periods of time. This minimizes the battery leakage and prevents unin-
tended turn on of the sensor.
NOTE!
The Beat2Phone ECG Charging Connector cannot be used with the
older Beat2Phone sensor.
NOTE!
Do not place the charger in a position where it will be difficult to operate.
Warning!
Do not charge the sensor battery in temperatures below 0 Celcius.
Do not place the sensor in or near microwave appliances to avoid
damaging the battery.
Do not use a wet charging connector

Sensor and charging connector: Visual indicators
The sensor is equipped with four LED indicators: Green, White, Orange and
Blue. These are used to indicate the sensor state. Any other LED behaviour indi-
cates that the device is damaged and should not be used.
If no LED is lit, the sensor is turned off, or the battery is empty.
When the sensor is turned on by movement a Green LED blinks five times in
a short-short-long flash sequence.
When the sensor is turned on, properly connected to skin via the chest elec-
trodes, and heartbeat is detected, the Green LED will blink at the same pace
as the heart rate.
When the sensor is turned on and properly connected to skin via the chest
electrodes, but no heartbeat is not detected, the Orange LED will turn on for
one second every 300 milliseconds. This indicates leads on, but no heart-
beat.
When the sensor is turned on but not properly connected to skin via the chest
electrodes, the Orange LED will blink once every 3 seconds. This indicates
leads off. → CAUTION: check electrodes connection.
