Notes
Patient movement may generate excessive noise that may affect the quality of the ECG traces and the proper
analysis performed by the device.
Proper patient preparation is important to proper application of ECG electrodes and operation of the device.
The algorithm detecting electrode reversal is based on normal physiology and ECG lead order, and tries to
identify the most likely switch; however, it is advisable to check the other electrode positions in the same group
(limb or chest).
There is no known safety hazard if other equipment, such as pacemakers or other stimulators, is used
simultaneously with the device; however, disturbance to the signal may occur.
The WAM LEDs will automatically start flashing if the batteries have been discharged below 1.0 volts.
During normal WAM/AM12/AM15E operation, the green LED will display continuously.
