Calibration Procedure

During calibration, the top line of the display shows the name of the calibration step,

where to connect the digital multimeter (DMM) and the value to adjust for.
Some of the steps require only that a DMM reading be taken before proceeding to the

next step.
For steps that require adjustment, the menu selections are displayed on four menu pages,

which are accessed using the <right arrow> and <left arrow> keys. Press the function key

that relates to the desired selection.
To decrement and increment, use the <F1> and <F2> keys. The <up arrow> key saves

the setting and jumps back a step.
Menu selections and their functions follow:

1. For the "ECG: REF" step, record the reading (including polarity).
2. Then on the next step—"ECG: 5 mV"—adjust the unit for a reading of 5 mV

plus the reference step reading. This can also be done by zeroing the DMM on

the reference step.

3. For "PACE: REF", record the reading as above. Then for the "ATRIAL PACE:

REF V" and "VENT PACE: REF V", adjust the unit to the "PACE REF" voltage.
