Hello, Schiller ECG machine- AT2 , when auto/manual print pressed then machine is off.pls help...

HI,
Its a common problem with Schiller ECG machine. The battery of your ECG machine is faulty. Even if you are using the machine in AC it uses the battery power. The AC power is only used for charging the battery.

When the machine starts to print the battery will drop down and the printing will stop. This is happening with the machine. It will eject the first paper without printing. its normal. Because the machine starts printing on a fresh page only. In your case the machine is ejecting the first paper. When the machine starts its printing in the second page it will draw a large amount of current from the battery for its thermal printing head. If the battery is not proper then it will suddenly drop the printing. The square box you see is not printed by your ECG machine. Its already printed in the paper of Schiller. With this mark the Machine sense the page.

Its a 12 volt 2.3 AH battery. You will not be able to replace the battery from out side any where. For replacing the same you have to open the machine by removing the screws on its bottom. Be care full with the paper tray while removing the top cover. Also do not use any force to open the top cover because there are connections on the top cover.
Here i have added a link to the battery for Schiller AT2 PLUS

Be certain that you have the correct paper in your unit. THe Schiller AT2 uses a black Que mark on the paper to start the Automatic 12 lead. If the device fails to Que, it will never start an auto run, but manual(rhythm) functions will still remain. The part number paper you should be using is 2157-017A.

hi,
Your machines thermal printing head have some problem. Thats why it give printouts very light. Not possible to repair thermal head. You have to replace it.
ok

hi,
When the at2 is in auto mode, first of all it check the leads are properly connected or not.Then it will acquire the ECG and store the same in its memory then only it starts printing. that's why it takes that much time to give a printout. When its starts printing you can remove the connections from the patient because it have already memorized the ECG.
If interpretation is in on position it will compare the acquired ecg with the standards in its memory (allready programed by the manufacturer). and will give a detailed report with ecg.
ok

- Then, enter the time (HHMMSS)
- Finally you'll hear the confirmation beep
