Chapter4: Installation and Setup
Testing the Event Marker Function
Perform the following steps to test the event marker function.
Step Instructions
Instructions to test the event marker function:
1. Connect any transducer to the Mini-telemetry
transmitter. Turn on the monitor’s strip chart
recorder.
NOTE: Mark key functionality will work only if atleast
one transducer is connected to the transmitter.
2. Press the Mark key on the transmitter for at least
one second. Verify that an appropriate mark is
printed on the paper and appears on the
transmitter display.
NOTE: The settings for the mark should to be done in
the monitor.
• : This annotation is commonly used to
record an event. This mark is available on all
Corometrics-brand monitors.
• : This annotation is commonly used as an
indication that the mother has perceived fetal
movement. (Refer to the operator’s manual for
your monitor to learn if your monitor supports
this feature. Refer to the service manual of
your monitor for information about enabling
the option.)
Testing the Environment
Decide on which areas of your facility will be used for ambulatory monitoring. Test each location separately
to rule out rooms that are restricted due to solid concrete walls, metal structures blocking signal transmission.
Biomedical engineer or installation team will identify and manage distance measurements to ensure optimal
signal clarity.
