Introduction
Items 4 to 10 are specific for ECG acquisition only:
4. Current Heart Rate (averaged over 4 beats and refreshed every 2 seconds). The HR is
also given on a manual printout. Note that with an auto mode printout the HR is
averaged over the full 10 seconds of the recording.
5. Electrode connections - when a lead flashes it indicates that the electrode resistance
is too high. The electrode(s) must be reapplied.
6. Sensitivity - 5, 10 or 20 mm/mV. Change the sensitivity with the keys 3 (auto), 4, 5
and 6. An `A` in this box indicates that automatic sensitivity is selected (auto mode
printout only).
7. Speed - 25 or 50 mm/s. Change the speed with the keys 8 and 9.
8. Lead indication (leads currently displayed on the screen). Change the lead group with
the < and > keys on the keypad.
9. Myogram Filter indication - 'Filter ON' or 'Filter OFF'. The filter is applied with the filter
