5. When you are prompted to do so, switch on the recorder. The Pro recorder is switched on

automatically. The Real-time monitor displays the ECG traces.

2.4. Select how you want to view leads

Once you have created a new ECG, the Real-time monitor displays the ECG traces. Before you
start the actual recording, you can select how you want to view the traces. Welch Allyn
CardioPerfect offers three different views: 1x12, 2x6 and 4x3. In addition, you can set different
chart speeds and different sensitivities.

To select a different view:

In the Real-time monitor, select a view from the list. The new view is immediately
displayed.

To select a different chart speed or sensitivity for the view:

In the Real-time monitor, select a chart speed or sensitivity from the list. The speed and
sensitivity are immediately displayed.

2.5. Set a rhythm strip

As a default, Welch Allyn CardioPerfect uses lead II as a rhythm strip, but you can set any lead as
a rhythm strip.

To set another lead as a rhythm strip:

In the Rhythm strip pane, select a lead from the list. The new lead is immediately used as
a rhythm strip.

To set the speed and the sensitivity of the rhythm strip:

In the Rhythm strip pane, select a speed and sensitivity. The new speed and sensitivity
are immediately used.

2.6. Turn pacemaker on and off

ECG traces can contain artificial pacemaker signal indicators. You can remove this artificial pacer
indicator by disabling the "Show Pacer" selection. To learn how, see Customizing the Resting
ECG software
on 39.

2.7. Apply an AC filter

ECG traces can contain noise that is due to AC mains interference. This makes the traces harder
to read. You can filter out noise by applying an AC filter. When you apply a filter, the original ECG
signal is not permanently changed. You only change the way it is displayed on the monitor. You
can always restore the original signal.

To apply an AC filter:

At the top of the Real-time monitor, click AC filter. Click again to switch the filter off.
