1. D e vice de scription
This Service Manual for device versions V 1.2 and V1.3 describes both CardioSmart
and CardioSmart ST. Unless indicated s pecifically, the description applies t o both
CardioSmart and CardioSmart ST.
The device version V1.3 hardware components are identic al to those of device version
V1.2. The new combinations of these component s in V1.3 result in new models, socalled regional models. Differences between device v ersions V1.2 and V1.3 are
indicated clearly in the relevant sections .
The CardioSmart is a portable electrocardiograph with an int egrated printing unit.
It is used to acquire, record and process ECG signals.
It is designed for line-power and battery operation. O peration without a battery is not
possible. Power supply unit and battery are integrated into the instrument.
CardioSmart ST has an additional ergometry mode opt ion with its own ergometry
keypad.
The patient cable for the acquisition of E CG signals is connected by means of a 15pin connector as used in earlier ECG recorders. This means that the patient cables
used in the past can still be used.
Stored patient data and ECGs can be transmitted to a PC via an RS-232 int erface.
This requires a CardioProm version with additional patient dat a memory.
CardioSmart and CardioSmart ST are both bas ed on the same hardware platform

2.2.6 Printhead control
The printhead controller takes on the complete cont rol of a 216-mm thermal printhead
with a line width of 200 mm. It also contains t he printhead monitor, which reduces the
heating time with increasing printhead temperature, t erminating the printhead power
supply when the printhead temperature reaches 55°C. The printhead power s upply is
reactivated only when the printhead temperature drops below 50°C.
The core is a

For the printhe ad monitoring t he temperature of the thermal array printhead is
measured by a thermistor located on the printhead. A constant current source effec ts

being adjusted by hysteresis at the ot her comparator input.
If a printhead temperature of 55°C is exceeded, the message PRINTHEADTE MP is
activated and the current supply to the printhead prevented by the STROBE signal.
Only after the temperature drops below 50°C is the PRI NTHEADTEMP message
disabled and the current supply via STROBE reenabled.
A second comparator generates a VTE MP signal when the temperature reaches
45°C, it is disabled again when the temperature drops below 40°C. It repres ents a
prewarning signal, so that the quantity of data at the printhead is reduced to prevent it
being switched off.
In addition, a continuous reduction in the c urrent activation time occurs with inc reasing
temperature, resulting in a regular type face throughout the entire temperature range.

2.3 PCB Graphics Display_CS
This PCB is only used in connecti on with the component parts of the CardioSmart
graphics display unit. It comprises the following functional units:
- V oltage generation
- C PU interface, display control
- B ackground illumination
- C ontrast control
2. 3 . 1 P owe r supply
A negative voltage of -23 V is required for the power supply of the display. It is
generated by an inverting switching controller f rom the 5-V power supply. The output
voltage -23 V is enabled by the additional external wiring of the switching controller.
The voltage -23 V also serves as a voltage s ource for the generation of the negative
contrast volta ge .
The functional unit LC D BLO C K ensures that t he logic power supply +5 V is active at
the graphics display before the negative power supply and the contrast voltage. When
the instrument is switched off the negative power supply and the contrast v oltage are
switched off first.
2 . 3 . 2 Ba ckground illumination
The background illumination of the graphics display is effected by a C F L tube , which
requires an alternating voltage of approx. 800 Vs s.
The alternating voltage is generated by a voltage invert er, driven by 5 V. Since the

2.3.3 Contrast control
The contrast control has an additional temperature compensation control. However,
when there are rapid fluctuations in temperature it t akes a certain time until the
compensation is complete, since the dis play itself has a greater thermal time const ant.

2.4.1 Mechanical interfaces
The 3 following mechanical interfaces are important within t he CardioSmart:
- I nterface to CardioProm
- Interface to display CardioVision Text
- Interface to display CardioVision Graphic s
Interface to CardioProm
The CardioProm has its own housing, which is conduc ting to prevent damage by ESD.
To shunt any possible static charge it has 3 rails on the underside which, on the PCB
Control_CS in the CardioSmart basic devic e, when inserted make contact with the 3
rails on GND, thereby shunting the charge.
This mechanical insertion of the rails ensures t hat a fail-safe contact is made with the
PCB Control_CS.
Furthermore, mechanical coding ensures that the non-c ompatible CardioProms of the
EK56/EK512 series cannot be inserted into the slot. Similarly, the insertion of
CardioSmart CardioProms into the EK 56/512 slot is not possible.

The display CardioVision Text is placed into t he depression provided in the upper
shell of the CardioSmart basic device. The mechanic al rail on the outside of the

effected via a 3-pin power cord with a non-fused earth c onductor.
Although the mains input is not designed as a "wide range input ", adjustment to the
two mains voltage ranges 110V~ ... 120V~ and 220V~ ... 240V~ is easily achieved without
having to open the device or a wiring change of the bridges:
- C heck voltage setting in the inspection window of the interrupter of the mains
input module
- I f the voltage value is not the same as the mains voltage:
D isconnect ma ins plug!
-
- O pen interrupter with appropriate tool
- T ake out fuse holder with fuses
- I nsert fuses rated according to the rating plat e specifications
- R einsert holder so that the required voltage is visible
- C lose interrupter
- T he required mains voltage should now appear in the inspection window

180000 - 200000h
512 kByte RAM area buffered on the CardioProm (dep. on CardioProm ty pe)
Values may deviate from those given above, depending on the device or software
version used.
A specification in the form 100000 - 100000 permits the conclusion that this RAM area
does not exist in the device. However, if it does exist in conformity wit h the software
version implemented, this means that this RAM cell at address 100000H is defective.
The memory could also be defective when the initial and fi nal addresses of the memory
area differ and do not correspond to the above-mentioned limits . This then means, for
example, that the specificat ion 100000 - 123000 on the defective cell at address
123000H.

3.1.9 Interface test (6)
Several possibilities are available to test the serial interface. Moreover, on the one
hand, the signal transmission and rec eiving of the interface can be test ed by an
internal feedback from TXD and RXD and, on t he other hand, the signal transmission
and receiving with a remote station.
For the test with a remote station a st andard PC cable is required for a serial interface
(zero modem cable). In addition, the following trans mission protocol should be adjusted
at the remote station:
1 start bit, 8 data bits, parit y even
1 stop bit
Baud rate 9600
Pressing the “6" key calls up the f ollowing menu:
Interface test
(1) Transmitting and receiving
(2) Transmit test string to device
(3) Transmitting and receiving with device
( 1) T ra nsmitting a nd re ce iving
This test enables complete testing of the RS232 signal path for transmitting and
receiving, including RS232 driver and connector.
This test requires an RS232 connector with an int ernal bridge from pin 2 (RXDE) to pin
(TXDE). Depending on the result of the t est, the following message appears:
Test result : OK
or
Test result : Error
This procedure requires a software version as from V 4.1. Earlier software versions only
permit internal testing of the RS232 interf ace without including the RS232 driver.
(2 ) T ra nsmit te st string to de vice
In this test a remote station, e.g., PC must be connected up and hav e a terminal
program which can receive signals and be configured for the abov e-mentioned
protocol. If the remote stat ion is on receive, then every time the “2" key is pressed the
test string “Interface tes t” is transmitted to the remote st ation. Simultaneously, the
following message appears on the display:
Transmitting : interface test

( 3) T ra nsmitting a nd re ce iving with de vice
Transmitting and receiving can be tested with a remot e device by pressing the “3" key.
The device should be connected as described in (2).
After pressing the “3" key a tes t string is sent the remote station. The following
message appears on the display:
Transmitting: interface test
Receiving:
A subsequent input at the remote st ation is sent back to the device and display ed
there. Moreover, it should be noted that an input must take place within 10 s and the
input terminated with “return”. If the k ey is pressed a second time, then the st ring
"CardioSmart Test" is transmitted. Altogether there are three test st rings available,
which are sent in the following sequence with repeated key activation:
"Schnittstellenest", "CardioS mart-Test", "Sieht doch gut aus, oder?"
("Interface Test", CardioSmart Tes t", Looks good, doesn't it?")
The last string corresponds to the expec ted test result.
This test is terminated with any other k ey not used for a test.
3.1.10 Time and date (7)
This section deals with the quick chec king and setting of the time and date.
Pressing the “7" key calls up the f ollowing display:
Time / Date

The first mask is for the time and t he second for the date.
Example: [1012] [10119] for 10:12 o´clock and 10.11.94
Pressing the return key terminates the entry. The adjusted data are subsequently
accepted and seconds set t o zero.
The test is terminated with any other key not used for a test.

3.1.11 Electrode test (8)
The electrode test is started by pres sing the “8" key.
The electrode test is terminated by press ing any key.
To evaluate the electrode states t he following status WORD is available.
Status = 0 -> Electrode OK
Status = 1 -> Electrode disconnected
Bit15 Bit0
----------------------------------------------------------------------| x | x |DAT|ELN|NAP|NST|NAX| C6 | C5 | C4 | C3 | C2 | C1 | F | L | R |
And precisely this status WO RD extended to LONG is displayed on the s creen during
the electrode test to be performed. I t is important to note, however, that this status
WORD is not displayed as a binary number but as a hexadec imal number.
However, to make the status of a part icular electrode quickly recognizable, defec tive
electrodes are represented by an ID c ode.
EX_R, for example, stands f or the defective electrode R and C1 for electrode C1.
This permits the identification of ev ery individual electrode. Naturally, since s everal
electrodes can become disconnected simult aneously, it was necessary to set a certain
priority in the display of disconnected elec trodes.
The following display priority was programmed:
EX_R, EL_N, EX_L, EX_F, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, NAX, NST, NAP
For example, if electrodes R and N have become disconnec ted, then first R is reported
with EX_R as having become disconnect ed. Only after R is OK is E L_N displayed.

A specification in the form 100000 - 100000 permits the conclusion that this RAM area
does not exist in the device. However, if it does exist in conformity wit h the software
version implemented, this means that this RAM cell at address 100000H is defective.
The memory could also be defective when the initial and fi nal addresses of the memory
area differ and do not correspond to the above-mentioned limits . This then means, for
example, that the specificat ion 100000 - 123000 on the defective cell at address
123000H.

3.2.9 Interface test (6)
Several possibilities are available to test the serial interface. Moreover, on the one
hand, the signal transmission and rec eiving of the interface can be test ed by an
internal feedback from TXD and RXD and, on t he other hand, the signal transmission
and receiving with a remote station.
For the test with a remote station a st andard PC cable is required for a serial interface
(zero modem cable). In addition, the following trans mission protocol should be adjusted
at the remote station:
1 start bit, 8 data bits, parity even
1 stop bit
Baud rate 9600
Pressing the “6" key calls up the f ollowing menu:
Interface test Keys (1), (2), (3)
‘1' key te sts transmission and re ce iving
( 1) T ra nsmitting a nd re ce iving
This test enables complete testing of the RS232 signal path for transmitting and
receiving, including RS232 driver and connector.
This test requires an RS232 connector with an int ernal bridge from pin 2 (RXDE) to pin
(TXDE). Depending on the result of the t est, the following message appears:
Test result : OK
or
Test result : Error
This procedure requires a software version as from V 4.1. Earlier software versions only
permit internal testing of the RS232 interf ace without including the RS232 driver.
(2 ) T ra nsmit te st string to de vice
In this test a remote station, e.g., PC must be connected up and hav e a terminal
program which can receive signals and be configured for the abov e-mentioned
protocol. If the remote stat ion is on receive, then every time the “2" key is actuated the
test string “Interface tes t” is transmitted to the remote st ation. Simultaneously, the
following message appears on the display:
Transmitting : interface test

( 3) T ra nsmitting a nd re ce iving with de vice
Transmitting and receiving can be tested with a remot e device by pressing the “3" key.
The device should be connected as described in (2).
After pressing the “3" key a tes t string is sent the remote station. The following
message appears on the display:
Interface test Keys (1), (2), (3)
A subsequent input at the remote st ation is sent back to the device and display ed
there. A received text would then be dis played on the second line of the screen.
Moreover, it should be noted that an input must take place within 10 s and the input
terminated with “return”. If the key is actuated a second time then the string
"CardioSmart Test" is transmitted. Altogether there are three test st rings available,
which are sent in the following sequence with repeated key actuation:
"Interface Test", "CardioSmart Tes t", "Looks good, doesn´t it?"
The last string corresponds to the expec ted test result.
This test is terminated with any other k ey not used to start a test.

3.2.10 Time and date (7)
This section deals with the quick chec king and setting of the time and date.
Pressing the “7" key calls up the f ollowing display:
Time / Date
10:12:03 10.11.1994
From this screen the clock can be adjust ed by pressing the “S” key the following mask
appearing:
Time Date
[ ] [ ]
The first mask is for the time and t he second for the date.
Example: [1012] [10119] for 10:12 o´clock and 10.11.94
Pressing the return key terminates the entry. The adjusted data are subsequently
accepted and seconds set t o zero.
The test is terminated with any other key not used for a test.

3.2.11 Electrode test (8)
The electrode test is started by pres sing the “8" key.
The electrode test is terminated by press ing any key.
To evaluate the electrode states t he following status WORD is available.
Status = 0 -> Electrode OK
Status = 1 -> Electrode disconnected
Bit15 Bit0
----------------------------------------------------------------------| x | x |DAT|ELN|NAP|NST|NAX| C6 | C5 | C4 | C3 | C2 | C1 | F | L | R |
And precisely this status WO RD extended to LONG is displayed on the s creen during
the electrode test to be performed. I t is important to note, however, that this status
WORD is not displayed as a binary number but as a hexadec imal number.
However, to make the status of a part icular electrode quickly recognizable, defec tive
electrodes are represented by an ID c ode.
EX_R, for example, stands f or the defective electrode R and C1 for electrode C1.
This permits the identification of ev ery individual electrode. Naturally, since s everal
electrodes can become disconnected simult aneously, it was necessary to set a certain
priority in the display of disconnected elec trodes.
The following display priority was programmed:
EX_R, EL_N, EX_L, EX_F, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, NAX, NST, NAP
For example, if electrodes R and N have become disconnec ted, then first R is reported
with EX_R as having become disconnect ed. Only after R is OK is E L_N displayed.
3.2.12 Test time constants
(9)
The test is started by pressing t he “9" key and interrupted with the "Start/S top" key.
Immediately after the “9" key has been act uated the printer begins to record the first
two channels at 25 mm/s and 20 mm/mV.
Moreover, the message “Testing time cons tants” appears on the display.
In this test only the first two channels send signals to the printer. No ot her channels
can be configured. The default time const ant is output on the printout as a control.

7.1.3. Safety Analysis Test
7.1.3.1 General Information
The suggested Safety Analysis Test refer to the international Standard IEC 601-1.
The tests are generally performed with Safety Testers, on most of them, the measuring
circuits according IEC 601 are already implemented.
The tests which have to be performed are described generally, for the handling of your
Safety Tester follow the user manual.
The tests may be performed under normal ambient conditions of temperature, humidity
and pressure and with line voltage.
The leakage currents correspond to 110 % of rated voltage for the tested unit. Most
Safety Testers take this into account, otherwise the measured values have to be
calculated.

7.1.3.3 Measuring of leakage current
To proceed the suggested measurements, the unit under test has to be separated from
any interconnection to a system. If the unit is part of a system, extended tests
according IEC 601-1-1 have to be performed. The following diagram shows the
needed Measuring Circuit [M] for leakage current. The reading in mV corresponds to
uA (leakage current). The Safety Testers generally work with this Measuring Circuit [M]
and the displayed values are already converted to leakage current.
Page 67
7.1.3.3.1 Enclosure Leakage Current Test
This test is performed to measure leakage current from chassis to ground during
normal conditions (N.C.) and single fault conditions (S.F.C.).
In any case, the leakage current is measured from any exposed conductive parts to
ground, the unit under test has to be switched on and off.
Connect the unit under test to your Safety Tester.
- During normal conditions (N.C.), referring to the electrical diagram, measurements
have to be done under following conditions:
* Polarity switch Norm and RVS
* GND switch GND closed
