This chapter describes to the new user the many features of the
PageWriter 100 cardiograph, patient and operational safety, and AC/
battery operation. The user should become familiar with this material,
especially the safety information, prior to using the cardiograph.
1 7( See Appendix A, “Setting up Your Cardiograph for the First Time”
for information on checking the voltage switch setting, installing the
battery, connecting the cables, and loading paper. Each of these tasks
must be done prior to operating the cardiograph for the first time.

operating status of the cardiograph:
Attention: A flashing Auto light indicates that the ECG is being
acquired. When the light stays on, the acquisition is com-
plete.
A flashing Chart Speed light indicates a paper supply
problem.
A flashing Manual lead group light indicates an electrode
connection problem.
BAC Light will be on when the power cord is plugged into AC
power. This also indicates that the battery, if installed, is
charging.

Patient and Operational Safety Notes
1-8 Getting Acquainted
3DWLHQWDQG2SHUDWLRQD 6DIHW\1RWHV
Your cardiograph isolates all connections to the patient from electrical
ground and all other conductive circuits in the cardiograph. This
reduces the possibility of hazardous currents passing from the
cardiograph through the patient’s heart to ground. To ensure the
patient’s safety and your own, observe the following reminders.
lWhen operating your cardiograph from AC power, be sure it
and all other electrical equipment connected to or near the
patient are effectively grounded.
Use only grounded power cords (three-wire power cords with
grounded plugs). Also make sure the outlet accepts the plug and
is grounded. Never modify a grounded plug to fit an
ungrounded outlet, i.e. removing the ground prong or ground
clip to fit an ungrounded outlet. Should an ungrounded plug
adapter be necessary, use a ground strap to connect the
equipotential connector at the rear of the instrument to the
power source ground.
lThe patient cable should be routed away from power cords and
any other electrical equipment. Failure to do so can result in AC
line frequency interference on the ECG trace.

&$87, 1 Do not block the ventilation slots located on both sides and to the rear
of the cardiograph. Lack of ventilation may cause cardiograph to
overheat and components to fail.
lThe cardiograph’s warranty is only assured if you use approved
accessories and replacement parts.
AC and DC (Battery) Operation
1-10 Getting Acquainted
$&DQG'&%DWWHU\2SHUDWLRQ
Your cardiograph requires the battery to be installed for proper
operation—even if the cardiograph is plugged into AC power, it cannot
print an ECG report without the battery. For information about
replacing or installing the battery, refer to Appendix A, Setting up
Your Cardiograph for the First Time.
The following is a list of AC and battery operating instructions:
lA fully charged battery (without AC power) will print
approximately 40 Auto ECGs, or approximately 40 minutes of
continuous Manual ECG information.
lThe Low Battery light indicates the battery needs to be
charged. If the Low Battery light begins to flash, this indicates
the cardiograph is about to shut down due to a very low battery.
Plug the cardiograph into AC power.
lFrom the time the Low Battery light first comes on to when the
cardiograph automatically turns itself to Standby (off), there is
typically enough reserve battery capacity to print two Auto
ECG reports or 2 minutes of Manual ECG data. A weak or
faulty battery will reduce this time.
lA discharged battery requires at least 5 minutes charging time,
with the cardiograph in Standby (off), to print an Auto ECG.
lA discharged battery requires at least 10 minutes charging time,
with the cardiograph in Standby (off), to print a 1-minute
Manual ECG.
1 7( If the cardiograph is turned on while the battery is being charged, these
charging times are doubled (10 minutes for an Auto ECG and 20
minutes for a 1-minute Manual ECG).
