invasive measurement of a functional Electrocardiogram (ECG) and heart rate (HR) in
hospitals, healthcare institutes, and home environments by trained medical
professionals and trained adult. The “QUANTA”PORTABLE ECG MONITORING
DEVICE will process ECG signals and calculate HR on continuous, spot check, or event
record mode. Users can also add time tags to the ECG signals by pressing the
button. ECG and HR data will be transferred to a smartphone via Bluetooth and
displayed on the smartphone screen via a dedicated application called Q-ecg. The data
can be further transferred to cloud server for storage.
The device should be worn on the human body along with a body patch or a sensor
holder with gel electrodes. The “QUANTA”PORTABLE ECG MONITORING DEVICE
is available to professional organizations such as home caregivers, clinics, or hospitals.
It is not available to the general public. It should only be used by medical personnel or
trained adult patients. Use by unauthorized users is not allowed.

GETTING STARTED
Once you have completed the steps described in Before You Start,you can begin using
the “QUANTA”PORTABLE ECG MONITORING DEVICE by following these steps:
1. Create a profile in the Q-ecg app
2. Pair your smartphone to the ECG sensor via Bluetooth
3. Wear the “QUANTA”PORTABLE ECG MONITORING DEVICE
Creating a Profile
The first time you launch the Q-ecg app you will need to create a profile. Fill in the
following fields to create your profile:
Name
Gender
Birthday
Height
Weight
[Optional] Resting Heart Rate
NOTE:When filling in your resting heart rate, you may ask a trained medical professional to
measure your resting heart rate, or determine your resting heart rate by measuring your
heart rate after at least 5 minutes of inactivity.
Once you have filled in your profile, tap Done to continue.

CIR418-01 15
Pairing
After creating a profile, please enter the pairing page. To pair the sensor to your
smartphone:
1. When enter the pairing page, it would show the nearby BLE devices. Please select
the name “CIRXSXXXXXXX”which is the same as serial number on the back of
sensor.
2. It takes a few seconds to do the pairing. Please wait for a while.
3. Wait until a message displays on your smartphone indicating that the pairing is
complete.
NOTE: If pairing within the Q-ecg app fails (as shown below), please check the Bluetooth status on the
smartphone.
Wearing the ECG Sensor
Depending on the model you have purchased, you may either wear the ECG sensor
using the provided body patch, or wear the ECG sensor the sensor holder.
IMPORTANT: When wearing the ECG sensor directly you must use compatible electrodes (sold
separately) for the device to work properly. For more information on electrode specifications see
ECG Electrode Information.
IMPORTANT: If the skin at the contact point develops a rash, blisters, reddening, or other
irritation, please contact a medical professional or physician.

CIR418-01 16
Wearing the sensor holder
To wear the ECG sensor directly on your body, follow the directions below:
1. Attach an ECG electrode to each of the 3 connectors on the back of the sensor
holder (see image below).
NOTE: For more information on electrode specifications, see ECG Electrode Information.
2. Attach the ECG sensor to the front of the sensor holder so that all four holder
connectors on the sensor are properly clicked into the four sensor connectors on the
holder (see image below).
NOTE: Once connected, the status indicator on the sensor will light green then slowly flash indicating
that the sensor is connected to the holder but that the holder has not properly made contact with a
body.
3. Remove the paper backing on the contact side of each of the ECG electrodes.
4. Adhere the 2 electrodes located near the sensor under your left pectoral area (see
image below).
NOTE: The electrodes feature adhesive on the contact side to ensure secure contact with your body.
If an electrode does not adhere securely, please replace it with a new electrode.
5. Adhere the electrode attached to the cable to the area under your right collarbone
(see image below).

CIR418-01 17
6. Once the ECG sensor is properly positioned on your body, wait half a minute then
check the Q-ecg app to see if a real-time ECG reading is shown on the main screen
on the app. If a real-time ECG is shown on the app, the ECG sensor has been
properly worn.
WARNING: When wearing the ECG sensor directly on your body, ensure that all 3 electrodes
are firmly adhered to your body. Ensure that no parts of the sensor holder are dangling (as
shown below), which can lead to damage or cause the device to short-circuit if the electrodes
comes into contact with the electrical contacts on another powered device.
Removing the ECG Sensor from the Holder
When removing the ECG sensor from the holder, always remove the sensor by holding
the sensor and gently detaching it from the sensor holder, as shown below.
WARNING: Never remove the sensor by pulling the cable. This can damage the
holder.

CIR418-01 18
Wearing the body patch
The following steps describe the body patch wearing process:
Step1. Attach the Device on the body patch before put on body.
Step2. Wipe with alcohol cotton on the left chest.
Step3. Left hand naturally put down.
Step4. Put body patch under clavicle with angle 45º~ 60 º
Step5. Hand pressure on the body patch (especially on the connect point) for 30
seconds.
IMPORTANT: The Patch needs 24 hours to fully stick to your skin, we recommend showering
briefly with your back to the water, and avoid any activities that cause sweating during this
period.

CIR418-01 19
THE Q-ECG APP
Main Screen
Once you have successfully paired and worn the ECG sensor, the Q-ecg app’s main
screen will display on your mobile device. The main screen (shown below) displays a
real-time ECG which should be shown to a medical professional for evaluation.
