Superimposed Artifacts
The Simulator replicates five different artifacts. Their
purpose is to evaluate the effect of these type artifacts on
ECG accuracy. After selecting the artifact, press ENTER
to transmit it to the ECG. The Simulator deactivates the
artifact when you make another ECG or arrhythmia
selection.
