Clear Memory
Introduction
The Clear Memory feature is used to clear the FLASH data management memory on the A01 System PCB. Specifically, you clear:
•
ECG Data
– All stored ECG data (up to 360 minutes of First-In-First-Out continuous ECG waveforms) is permanently deleted.
•
Patient Reports
– All stored patient reports are permanently deleted.
Normally you clear the data management memory after the device is placed into new or different use and the previous patient data
is no longer required. You also clear the data management memory as part of certain service actions.
NOTE:
To save important patient data before clearing the data management memory, transmit the data to a receiving device or
print out individual patient data (see “Data Management” in the operating instructions).
