Danger
• Explosion Hazard •
The device is not designed for use in areas where an explosion
hazard may occur.
Explosion hazards may result from the use of ammable anes-
thetics, skin cleansing agents or disinfectants.
Warning
• Patient Hazard, Equipment Damage •
Do not expose the ergoselect to direct sunlight to prevent system
components from reaching inadmissible high temperatures.
Do NOT use the ergoselect outdoors (medical device). Further-
more the device has no additional protection against the ingress
of humidity. Humidity inside the device may cause equipment
malfunctions and increases the risk of an electric shock.
Additionally, the device should not be operated in the vicinity
of electric power plants, because they may impair equipment
functions.
The ergoselect ergometer may only be used in combination with
accessories approved by ergoline GmbH.
• Risk to Persons •
Before using the ergometer, the operator must ascertain that it
isin correct working order and operating condition. The cables
and connectors, in particular, must be checked for signs of
damage. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately.
• Equipment Malfunction •
Only the special shielded cables supplied by ERGOLINE may be
used to connect the device to other pieces of equipment.
• Equipment Malfunction •
Cellular telephones may not be used in the immediate vicinity
of the ergometer, because they might interfere with the proper
functioning of the ergometer.
Electromagnetic interference most probably exists when
the watt reading is unstable. If the displayed value changes
frequently even though the speed is above 30 RPM, this may
bedueto electromagnetic interference.
Warning
• Shock Hazard •
When the ergometer is connected to other equipment or if a
medical system is created, it must be ensured that the added
leakage currents do not present a hazard.
In case of questions, please contact your ERGOLINE dealer or
theergoline GmbH Service Department.
For use, the ergometer must always be connected to electric
installations that fulll the local requirements.

safety InformatIon for
non‑InvasIve Blood Pressure
measurement
Warning
• Patient Hazard •
Do not take blood pressure measurements with a cu on
patients suering from sickle cell anemia or where skin lesions
are likely to occur.
The cu may cause hematomas in patients with severe blood
coagulation disease. In these instances, the user must take a
decision for or against automatic blood pressure measurements.
Caution
• Compromised Measuring Accuracy •
Arrhythmias occurring frequently during a measurement may
compromise the accuracy of the measurement.
In certain cases, a valid measurement will not be possible.
Electromagnetic elds are also capable of impairing the measur-
ing accuracy.
Note
• If the cu pressure exceeds the maximum value of
300 mmHg during ination, the ination procedure will be
aborted and the cu deated.
As a redundant safety precaution, the cu is immediately
deated when the cu pressure exceeds 320 mmHg.
You can check the proper functioning of this safety precau-
tion by abruptly bending your arm while the cu is being
inated, causing a brief overpressure in the cu. The cu
must deate immediately.
• Measurements that did not yield a valid measurement will
not be repeated during the exercise test.
• If the ination phase takes longer than 40 seconds or if an
adequate pressure does not build up in the cu within a
reasonable period of time, the measurement will be aborted
and the cu deated.
• If a valid measurement cannot be completed within
120 seconds, the measurement will be aborted and the cu
deated.
• If the cu pressure remains constant for some time, the
measurement will also be aborted and the cu deated.
ContraIndICatIons
The following patient categories are excluded from using
the device:
• patients feeling discomfort or suering from dizziness,
nausea or pain.
• patients under the inuence of substances that may
impair vigilance (alcohol, drugs, medication).

PreParInG the PatIent for Blood
Pressure measurements
Cuff sIze
Always choose the cu size suitable for the patient's arm.
The maximum arm circumference is indicated on the cu.
mICroPhone PosItIon
Before applying the cu, check the position of the micro‑
phone inside the red pocket (on the inside of the cu):
When the microphone is inside the pocket, its metal side
must face the arm.
aPPlyInG the Cuff
The center of the microphone must be located exactly on
the brachial artery. Locate the artery by palpation, if
required. The red tab identies the position of the micro‑
phone.
The accurate placement of the microphone is the prima‑
ry condition for reliable pressure measurement during
exercise tests.
The cu must be applied directly on the skin, it may not
be applied on top of clothing, paper, etc. Apply the cu
approx. 2 cm above the bend of the elbow. The cu
should be tight, but it should not constrict blood vessels.
The cu may not move during the exercise test.

Caution
• Patient Hazard •
Apply the cu directly on the skin. Make sure that rolled up sleeves
do not impede blood circulation in the upper arm.
Loose cus will cause erroneous measurements; overtight cus
may constrict blood vessels or cause skin lesions and hematomas.
• Incorrect Measurements •
A loose cu would degrade the accuracy of the measurement.
Therefore, the computer aborts the measurement, if a minimum
pressure is not attained within a few seconds.
Warning
• Patient Hazard •
If, by accident, an excessive pressure builds up inside the cu,
either remove the cu immediately from the arm or disconnect
the cu tubing from the control terminal.
The same measures are recommended, if the cu does not

Check that the cu tubing does not knock against the
patient's knee, when the patient is pedalling and the hand
is on the handlebar.
Secure the cu tubing with the Velcro tape attached to the
handlebar.
Instruct your patient to move as little as possible during
a blood pressure measurement and, in particular, to avoid
excessive contractions of the muscles in the upper arm.

The ergometer software is controlled with 5 keys:
With this key you display the main menu or return
to the previous menu level.
With this key you initiate a blood pressure measure‑
ment. A measurement in progress can be aborted with the
same key.
The functions of these three softkeys change
with the displayed menu ‑ the key label describing the
function is shown on the display. Keypad p
Note
• Instruct the patient not to pedal while the ergometer is
being turned on and during the self-test.
• Apply the blood pressure cu to the patient AFTER the
ergometer has been turned on and the self-test completed.
• The device can be congured to default to one of the
operating modes.
If this option is selected, the initial screen of the selected
operating mode (e.g. Ergometry) will be displayed instead
of the main menu. With the key, you can display

oPeratInG modes wIth Control termInal P
An ergoselect ergometer with a control terminal P supports
the following operating modes:
PC MODE
An external device (e.g. stand‑alone electrocardio‑
graph, PC‑based ECG system) controls the ergometer ‑
no intervention at all is required at the ergometer.
ERGOMETRY
The ergometer runs an automatic exercise test ‑ some
of the corresponding test protocols are user‑congu‑
rable and stored in the system (see chapter "Settings").
MANUAL
The ergometer is controlled manually, i.e., the user
performs all load changes via the keypad.
SETTINGS
Used to congure the ergometer.
sPeed readout
At the top of the control terminal, there is a speed readout
for the patient as well as three LEDs that inform the patient
of the speed: too slow, too fast or correct.
The ranges for the respective speed ratings depend on the
selected load (see "Technical Specications").
speed readout
1 speed low (patient should pedal faster)
2 correct speed
3 speed high (= patient should pedal slower)
Note
• If, during an exercise test, the speed drops below 30 RPM,
the load readout starts blinking on the display.
• To reactivate the saddle height adjustment function,
press and the arrow keys will again be displayed.
• Additional blood pressure measurements an be initiated

With the arrrow keys, the saddle height can be electrically
adjusted on the ergoselect 200 (on the ergoselect 400,
these keys adjust the height of the drive unit).
As soon as the ergometer receives commands from the
controlling ECG unit or PC, the exercise test will start and
the corresponding values will be displayed.
The exercise test can only be terminated with the corre‑
sponding command from the controlling ECG unit.
