Refer to the CPU PCB schematic diagram found in the PCB Assemblies
chapter at the end of the manual.
Poor Quality ECGs
Poor quality ECGs can be caused by factors in the environment,
inadequate patient preparation, hardware failures related to the
acquisition module, leadwires, cables, or problems in the unit.
Use a simulator to obtain an ECG report. If the report is good, the
problem is external to the unit.
