The P80Six is a 12-channel ECG recorder. All ECG signals are simultaneously processed to
provide instant ECG recordings. Two automatic recording modes can be individually preset to
enable one button ECG recording of preferred print formats .
Individual lamps are provided to give power, paper error, filter, lead group and lead off
indications.
In addition, any detected disturbance (i.e. loose electrode or end of paper), gives an audible
alarm and the corresponding indicator lamp flashes.
The P80Six includes the following features:
• Low weight and compact dimensions

• Large A4 size printout from integrated quality thermal printer
• Built-in rechargeable battery for mains-independent use
• Simple one key operation
• Automatic or manual recording modes
• Selectable printing formats
• ECG memory for easy copying
• Interpretation program option (including measurements)

Location & Power
Location
Do not keep or operate the apparatus in a wet, moist, or dusty environment. Also, avoid exposure
to direct sunlight or heat from other sources. Do not allow the unit to come into contact with acidic
vapours or liquids, as such contact may cause irreparable damage. The unit should not be
placed near X-ray or diathermy units, large transformers or motors.
The unit must be placed on a flat surface. The unit should not be operated in areas where there
is any danger of explosion.
Power Supply
The unit can either be operated from the built-in rechargeable battery, or from the mains.
The mains connection is on the rear of the unit. The mains indicator lamp is always lit when the
unit is connected to the mains supply.
A battery indicator lamp confirms battery operation. When the battery capacity is limited, the
indicator flashes. To recharge the battery, connect the apparatus to the mains supply by means
of the supplied power cable. A totally discharged battery needs less than 15 hours to be fully
recharged (60% in less than 3 hours, 90% in less than 7 hours).
A fully charged battery lasts approximately 6 hours of normal use. The unit can remain connected
to the mains supply without any danger of damage to either the battery or the unit.

Switching On and Off
ON OFF
The P80Six is switched on by means of the on key and off by means of the off
key.
The unit is switched off after 5 minutes (30 seconds if battery capacity is limited) if no key is
pressed and the patient cable is not connected.
Potential Equalisation
If the P80Six is used in conjunction with other patient connected equipment, we recommend that
the potential equalisation stud ( ) on the rear of the unit is connected to the hospital/ building
common ground with the yellow/green ground cable..
When working from an emergency vehicle, the vehicle common ground can be used.

Patient Cable Connections
ENGLISH
The accessory kit of the electrocardiograph includes a 10-lead patient cable. This cable is
plugged into the patient cable socket on the right-hand side of the unit and secured with the two
screws.
The P80Six is CF rated. The patient connection is fully isolated and defibrillation protected.
Protection against defibrillation voltage is however only ensured, if the original ESAOTE patient
cable (Part-no. 9740410001 / USA: 9740410002) is used. Make sure that during ECG recording
neither the patient nor the conducting parts of the patient connection or the electrodes (including
the neutral electrode) come into contact with other persons or conducting objects (even if these
are earthed).

The quality of the ECG is dependent on the preparation and the resistance between the skin and
the electrode. To ensure a good quality ECG and minimise the skin/electrode resistance,
remember the following points:
1. Ensure that the patient is warm and relaxed.
2. Shave electrode area before cleaning.
3. Thoroughly clean the area with alcohol.
4. Place the C4 electrode first - in the fifth intercostal space on midclavicular line.
Then place:
• C1 in fourth intercostal space at the right sternal border
• C2 in fourth intercostal space at the left sternal border
• C3 between, and equidistant to, C4 and C2
• C6 on left midaxillary line on the same level as C4
Following these simple guidelines will ensure good results every time.

Recording an ECG in Automatic Mode
In automatic mode, a full 12-lead ECG is printed in one of two predefined formats with a
sensitivity of 10 mm/mV. These two formats are selected by the user to suit his specific needs
and requirements (as detailed previously).
AUTO GAIN
mm
mV
When the key is pressed before recording in automatic mode, the unit detects very large
waveform amplitudes and sets the sensitivity for the extremity and/or precordial leads to 5 mm/
mV to reduce the overlapping of traces.
AUTO START
To start the automatic ECG recording in Format 1, simply press .
SHIFT AUTO START
To start the automatic recording in the second format, press followed by .

Care & Maintenance
Care of your P80Six
The patient cable should not be exposed to excessive mechanical stress. Whenever disconnect-
ing the leads, hold the plugs and not the cables. Align the leads in such a way as to prevent
anyone stumbling over them or any damage caused by the wheels of instrument trolleys. The
cable can be wiped with soapy water. Sterilization, if required, should be done with gas only and
not with steam. To disinfect, wipe the cable with any standard hospital disinfectant.
The casing of the P80Six should be cleaned with a soft cloth on the surface only.
DISCONNECT THE UNIT BEFORE CLEANING. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,

IMMERSE THE APPARATUS INTO A CLEANING LIQUID OR STERILIZE WITH HOT
WATER, STEAM, OR AIR.
Self-test
Initiate a self-test of the P80Six as follows:

12 Monthly Check
The unit should undergo a technical safety check every 12 months. This safety check should
extend to include the following:
• Visual inspection of the unit and cables.
• Electrical safety tests according to IEC 601-1 and IEC 601-2-25.
• Functional tests according to the Service Handbook.
The test results must be documented.
Cleaning the Print Head
If the printer is used a lot, a residue of printers ink (from the grid on the printer paper) can build
up on the print head. This can cause the print quality to deteriorate. We recommend therefore
that every month the print head is cleaned with alcohol as follows:
• Remove the paper tray. The printhead is found under, and in from, the paper tray
release catch.
• With a tissue dampened with alcohol, gently rub the print head to remove the ink
residue. If the printhead is badly soiled, the colour of the grid ink will show on the
tissue.

Replacing the Recording Paper
The recording paper must be replaced as soon as the end of the paper is indicated by a red stripe
on the lower edge. After the indication first appears, there are about 8 pages left. However, we
recommend that the paper be replaced immediately.
If no paper is left, the printing process is interrupted and the paper warning lamp starts to blink.
After the paper has been replaced, the printout is restarted by pressing COPY or MAN START
or AUTO START.
A step-by-step description of how to change the paper is given on the next page.
