INTRODUCTION
Manual Purpose
This manual provides instructions for using the WAM PC to collect resting ECG waveforms from patients.
It also provides instructions for care and maintenance of the WAM PC.
Manual Audience
This manual is written for clinical professionals who have a working knowledge of medical procedures
and terminology as required for acquiring resting ECGs from patients.
WAM PC Description
The WAM PC is a resting ECG acquisition module with memory. It does not need to be connected to a
full-featured electrocardiograph while it records ECG waveforms from a patient. It is simply attached to a
patient and used to acquire 60 seconds of raw ECG waveforms into its memory. Once it has 60 seconds
of data, it is placed near a computer with a USB Transceiver Key (UTK). A software application is used to
wirelessly copy the waveforms from the module. After the waveforms have been copied, its memory is
erased so it is ready for another ECG recording.
The following equipment is needed to collect resting ECG waveforms with the WAM PC:
WAM PC
One AA alkaline battery, 1.5V
USB Transceiver Key (UTK)
10 lead wire set
10 ECG electrodes per acquisition
Software application compatible with WAM PC, e.g. WebUpload, ELI PC
Windows computer to host the software application with one USB port for UTK
WAM PC with Lead Wires
APPROVED BATTERY TYPES
Any alkaline, AA, 1.5V battery may be used.
WARNING: Other types of batteries may present a risk of fire or explosion.
