uECG - Quick start

Power on/off

Turn on the the slider on the side of the device - slider switch is used for shipping and long storage modes, not required for standard use Press a button - the device will turn on immediately. You should see a series of blinks on the left side - first red, green, blue; then three green flashes; then pink. The pink LED means the device is on and ready to use; The pink LED should periodically flash when device sees R peaks in ECG - i.e. in contact with the skin. To power off, press and hold the button for 3 seconds. LED should switch from green to red, then you can release the button

Usage

Attach round gel electrodes to the snap connectors on the bottom of uECG; Peel off the protective layer from them and stick them to the chest as shown in picture below; Gently press the device onto the skin once to ensure it sticks; After use, peel off the device and detach the electrodes (they are single-use); It’s good to minimize the amount of hair and wipe the skin with alcohol for better signal. It will also be easier to remove, too :)

Please turn off uECG after use! Current version doesn’t automatically turn off when no skin contact is present.

uECG uses a micro USB port for charging. You can charge it from a usual phone 5V USB adapter (or laptop/PC USB port). Insert the micro USB cable into the port and the device will begin charging; Remove the cable to stop charging; The device does not have to be turned on to charge. We hope you will enjoy using uECG!
