Cleaning and Inspecting Techniques This section contains instructions for periodic cleaning and inspection of the instrument as preventative maintenance
measures. It also contains specific cleaning procedures to be conducted after disassembly. Parts having identical
cleaning procedures are grouped under common headings. No special tools are required.
Interior Cleaning
WARNING
Ventilate work area thoroughly when using solvents. Observe manufacturers warnings on
solvent containers with regard to personnel safety and emergency first aid. Be sure that first
aid equipment is available before using chemicals. Observe all shop safety and fire
precautions.
Magnetic Cleaning
CAUTION
Do not use solvents to clean transformers or inductors. The chemical action of solvents may
remove the varnish from the wire coils, rendering the components useless. The solvent also
neutralizes the adhesive of the cover tape, resulting in eventual tape separation from the
windings.
Clean transformers and inductors with a dry, non-metallic, soft bristle brush.
Printed Circuit Board Cleaning The printed circuit board assemblies in the ELI 250/210 system contain static sensitive devices. Use special
handling procedures to prevent damage due to ESD.
Clean assembled parts with a vacuum cleaner or low pressure compressed air (30 psi). Take care when cleaning
printed circuit boards that wires or component leads are not bent back and forth in such a manner as to weaken them
and cause them to eventually break.
Dry with low pressure compressed air.

Interpretation Option
-
ELI 250/210__________________________________________________________________________
3-12
The ELI 250 automatically analyzes ECGs and prints the optional interpretation on the ECG printout. This option
allows you to select or suppress the “interpretive” text on the ECG report.
NOTE: A qualified physician should review the computer generated ECG interpretation before the
treatment of any patient.
Reasons
The reason statements indicate why a particular interpretive statement was printed. Reason statements print in
[square brackets] within the interpretive text (if the interpretation is turned on). Turning the reason statement
function on or off does not affect the measurements performed or the interpretive statements selected by the analysis
program.
For Example:
Anteroseptal Infarct [40+ MS Q WAVE IN V1-V4]
Where “Anteroseptal Infarct” is the interpretive statement.
And “40+ MS Q WAVE IN V1-V4” is the reason statement or explanation as to why the
interpretive statement was printed.
Configuration Page 3
Append
A status or statement phrase can be appended to the ECG and printed under the interpretive text printout. Either
“unconfirmed report” or “reviewed by” can be selected. However, if you wish to have nothing appended to the
ECG, “blank” may be selected.
Number of Copies
This option defines the number of printed copies when an ECG is taken. A zero (0) setting prints the original only;
one (1) prints the original plus 1 copy; two (2) prints the original plus 2 copies, and so on. Up to 9 copies may be
selected.
ECGs Retrieved
-
____________________________________________________________________________Section 3
3-13
This option defines the number of ECGs retrieved from an E-Scribe data management system. The ECGs are
retrieved by ID number. A zero (0) setting retrieves the most current ECG for that ID number. Settings from one
(1) to nine (9) retrieve the most current ECG plus “X” number of ECGs identified by the entered value.
EXAMPLE: If you enter the number 5, you will retrieve the most current ECG plus the five preceding ECGs for
that ID number. ECGs retrieved from the E-Scribe are only printed at the ELI250 and not saved.
Delete Rule
This option defines the ECG auto delete status in the patient directory. ECGs that are marked for deletion will be
automatically removed or erased based on their record size to make room necessary for the new ECG record. ECGs
are only erased from the directory when they are marked for deletion and if the directory becomes full. The delete
rule selections are:
Post Plot = ECG is automatically marked deleted after printing.
Post Transmit = ECG is automatically marked deleted after transmission.
Post Plot/Transmit = ECG is automatically marked deleted after transmission and printing.
Storage Sensitivity The ECG storage sensitivity setting dictates the resolution of the stored record. The sensitivity settings are either
Normal or High. If the configuration value is set to High, the stored ECG will have a high resolution. As a result,
the records size will be large and will reduce the storage capacity in the ECG directory.
Auto Save ECG
This option defines whether or not the ELI 250 is to automatically save newly acquired ECGs in the directory, once
they are acquired and printed. If the auto save configuration option is set to NO, and the record is printed, the ELI
250 will prompt you to “Save ECG?” SAVE (F1) will store the ECG in the directory.
NOTE: manually save ECGs by selecting More (F5) from the Acquired ECG view and Save (F5).
Auto Print ECG
This option defines whether or not the ELI 250 will automatically print the ECG after acquisition. If the selected
configuration option is set to NO, a manual printout is possible after acquisition.
Baud Rate
The user-selectable baud rate determines the serial port’s data transmission rate in bits per second (bps). Set the
baud rate to: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 bps for direct data transmission between the ELI 250 and
another Mortara cardiograph, and 38400 bps for a direct connection to the E-SCRIBE data management system.
Use A4 Paper
The ELI 250 accommodates use of Z-fold thermal paper in either the letter size (8.5 x 11 inches; 216 x 279 mm) or
the “A4” size (8.27 x 11.69 inches; 210 x 297 mm). The provided paper tray spacer is required for use with A4 size
paper. Enable this configuration option for A4 printing. The paper tray spacer should not be inserted if the letter
size paper is used.
