9.3 Maternal HR Monitoring 

9.3.1 Introduction 

Maternal heart rate (HR) monitoring does not need an extra accessory. When you perform ECG 

or SpO

2 

(Pulse) monitoring, the HR result can be acquired at the same time. 

When monitoring ECG and SpO

2

 at the same time, you can choose the HR source. If only one of 

them is being performed, the source will automatically switch to the available one (the screen 

reading should prevail). 

9.3.2 Choosing HR Source 

You can change the HR source. 

1 Select the setup key 

  on the main interface. 

2 Select Mother > HR Source. 

3 Select ECG (default) or Pulse (during SpO

2

 monitoring). 

4 Select OK. 

9.3.3 Changing HR Beep Volume 

When the HR beep is enabled, the monitor gives a beep sound of maternal heart. 

To change the HR beep volume,   

1 Select the setup key 

  on the main interface. 

2 Select Mother > HR Beep. 

3 Select OFF (default), Low or High. 

4 Select OK. 

NOTE:

1  The DECG beep and HR beep share the same audio channel. Once the HR beep is 

switched on, the DECG beep is disabled (set to OFF) automatically. 

2 Once the DECG/HR beep volume is changed, the sound switches to channel 1 

automatically. Therefore, it is advised against changing DECG/HR beep volume in the 

monitoring process.
