7. Monitor Patient Heart Rate
The Model 3200 detects and displays an acoustic-based heart rate when presented with consistent heart sounds
(heart rate variation < 10%). It takes five seconds to compute the initial heart rate and updates are provided every
two seconds. Prior to the initial reading, the display shows two dashes (--). For heart rates outside a range of 30-
199 bpm, the display will also show two dashes (--).
The acoustic-based heart rate display functions best when the Model 3200 is placed near the apex of the patient’s
heart. If the heart rate changes from consistent to inconsistent or if there is excessive ambient noise, patient
movement or lung sounds during auscultation, the heart rate display number will display two dashes (--).
8. Monitor Battery Life
Battery life is indicated by an icon in the LCD display.
The Model 3200 comes with a AA Alkaline battery. Battery will provide approximately 50-60 hours of continuous
use, depending on the frequency of Bluetooth data transfers. In a typical clinical setting, this represents about
three months.
As the battery life depletes, the icon will change as follows:
The battery icon begins to blink when only a few hours of battery capacity remains.
CAUTION: When the battery is completely depleted the scope becomes inoperable. No sound will be
transmitted without a functioning battery.
IMPORTANT! NiMH (rechargeable) and Lithium batteries may also be used in the Model 3200. However, battery
type must be specified to ensure a reliable battery life indication (see Custom Configuration section below).
