Rates

Square and Triangle

0.125, 2.0, and 2.5 Hz

Sine

0.05, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 100, and 150 Hz

30 and 60 bpm


4. Push  to set the rate and go back to the ECG: Performance screen.
To change the amplitude:
1. Push  or  to highlight the Amplitude value.
2. Push .
3. Push  or  to adjust the amplitude. Each push of a key increases or decreases the

amplitude 0.05 mV between 0.05 and 1.00 mV and 0.25 mV above 1 mV to 5.00 mV

in the direction of the key pushed.

4. Push  to set the rate and go back to the ECG: Performance screen.

How to Set R Wave Detection Values (ProSim 8 only)

To sense a heartbeat, a monitor looks for R waves. The sensed R wave is used to

calculate heart rate and other analysis. You adjust the R wave to find the range of values

a heart monitor can sense a heart beat. The R wave is a simple triangular pulse.
To output a signal for an R Wave detection test:
1. Push  to show the ECG screen in the display.
2. Push  or  to highlight the Wave Group value.
3. Push .
4. Push  or  to highlight the R Wave Detection value in the wave group list.
5. Push  to show the ECG: R Wave Detection screen in Figure 11 in the

display.

The rate, amplitude, and width of the R wave can be changed. To change the rate:
1. Push  or  to highlight the Rate value.
2. Push .
3. Push  or  to highlight 30, 60, 90, 120, 200, or 250 bpm in the list.
