Calibration pulse check procedure
Cardiac Science recommends performing a calibration pulse (cal pulse) check procedure
annually to test the sensitivity of the system.
To perform the cal pulse check, apply a cal pulse individually to Leads I, II, and V1-V6
(C1-C6) and verify they reproduce a 1 mV within a tolerance of ±5% of the input signal.
You can perform a cal pulse check using a commercial ECG simulator (described here) or
you can use a test circuit as described in IEC 60601-2-51 (2005)
Commercial ECG simulator method
The ECG simulator must have a 1 mV (±0.01 mV) cal pulse with rise time of not greater
than 5 ms.
1. Consult the user manual for the ECG simulator to determine the correct way to hook
the simulator to the ECG recorder and to perform a cal pulse test.
2. Measure the output of each lead to be tested by connecting the patient electrode wire
to the input of the appropriate cal pulse connector while all other patient electrode
wires are connected to their appropriate connection points.
3. Follow the instructions for the ECG simulator to verify that the resultant cal pulse
amplitude for each lead is reproduced with no more than ±5% error.

Service & Maintenance
Electrical leakage current tests
Use these tests to verify ECG device electrical safety. All leakage tests must be performed
after any internal repair (i.e., the case is opened), or to check for possible damage (e.g., the
ECG device is dropped).
The ECG device is Class II (ungrounded equipment). The exposed metal on the ECG
device is not likely to become energized by internal live circuitry. (All exposed metal is
double insulated from the internal live circuitry and does not become energized even
under single fault conditions.) Therefore it is safer not to connect the exposed metal to the
internal chassis or to the functional earth of the ECG device. This method of protection is
recognized by all national and international consensus standards and safety agencies.
The exposed metal in the ECG device cannot become energized by internal live circuitry
nor by differences in the ground potential, so there is no reason to provide voltage
equalization.Use the equipotential ground contact (ground lug) to interconnect the chassis
and functional earth of the ECG device, via the equipotential ground system, to other
electrical noise sources in a room. This reduces electrical noise that might appear on the
output of the ECG.
Required equipment
1. Dynatech Nevada 235A Safety Analyzer
Note: The Dynatech Safety Analyzer is recommended for this procedure, if a different safety
analyzer is used, consult the user manual for proper setup and testing procedures.
Patient leakage current procedure
Note: Ensure that the Kelvin cable is not connected.
1. Plug the safety analyzer into the 264 VAC line voltage.
2. Plug the ECG device power cable into the test receptacle on top of the safety analyzer.
3. Connect a patient cable between patient input connector on the ECG device and the
appropriate patient terminals on the top of the safety analyzer.
4. Press the Enable button for the ECG leads group on the safety analyzer.
5. Turn the Select knob to select All.
6. Verify the leakage current is less than 10 μA for these conditions:
a. Polarity Normal, ECG device power on
b. Polarity Normal, Open Ground, ECG device power on
c. Polarity Normal, Open Neutral, ECG device power on
d. Polarity Reversed, ECG device power on
e. Polarity Reversed, Open Ground, ECG device power on
f. Polarity Reversed, Open Neutral, ECG device power on

This message is normally displayed for about 15 seconds after
beginning an ECG acquisition. If it does not go away after about 15
seconds:
1. Check the screen for a lead fail indication, and then fix that lead.
2. Check all the ECG leads.
3. Troubleshoot for noise (see Artifacts or noise on ECG trace).
4. Refer to the Operating Instructions for additional troubleshooting
information.
AC power indicator is off
(Green LED on back panel)
1. Ensure both ends of the power cord are securely connected.
2. Ensure green LED on external power supply is on.
3. Disconnect the ECG device from the external power supply and
see if the external power supply LED is on.
4. Ensure the power outlet is working.
5. Replace power cord.
6. Replace the external power supply.

Troubleshooting
ECG device unexpectedly reboots
(crashes)
The ECG device will shut off if both AC and battery power are
interrupted at the same time. The ECG device must have a battery
installed during normal operation.
1. If operating from the battery, ensure the battery is charged and
the cable securely connected.
2. If operating from AC power, ensure the battery is installed and AC
power is available
3. After a crash, insert a USB flash drive and select Setup.
4. Use the arrow keys (Next and Previous) to scroll to
Service Functions and then press Select twice.
5. Scroll to Copy crash dump to USB and press Select.
The ECG device writes a text file that can be sent to Technical
Support for analysis.
Video Display
1. No display
2. Display is too dark or too light
3. Display is unstable
1. Ensure a battery is installed and check the green power LED on the
back panel to verify AC power is available.
2. Try adjusting the brightness (Shift +Next or
Shift +Previous).
3. Press and hold the On/Standby key for 8 seconds to
power off and then press On/Standby again to restart the ECG
device.
These solutions must be performed by qualified service personnel:
Note: When opening this unit for troubleshooting, DO NOT unplug
the video cable from the logic board unless you are replacing the top
assembly. The video cable is fragile.
1. Ensure keyboard cable is securely connected.
2. Ensure the display cable is securely connected. The graphic below
shows the Video Display cable improperly connected--the cable is
not fully inserted into the jack and the right tab is not fully
engaged to lock in the cable.
3. Replace the top cover assembly.
4. Replace the power supply board.
5. Replace the mainboard.
