6.1 General Information on recording
A thermal dot matrices recorder with 48mm wide printout paper is used for the Monitor.
Performance of the Recorder
• Waveform record is printed out at a rate of 25 or 50 mm/s.
• It can record up to 2 waveforms.
• Output with grid selectable.
• English / Chinese printout.
• The real time recording time and waveform are user-configurable.
• Auto recording interval is set by the user, the waveform is in accordance with the real time recording.
• The alarm recording waveform is automatically selected by the monitor.
6.2 recording type
The monitor provides several stripe recording types:
• Continuous real-time recording

Real-time Recording
Real-time recording starts as you press the REC/STOP button on the recorder.
The waveforms for continuous real-time recording and continuous 8 second recording are automatically set
by the monitor (usually the first two waveforms displayed on the screen). You can also configure it through
the menu. Refer to related section for details.
In RECORD SETUP menu, the user can choose two waveforms to be printed out. The User can setup one
waveform off. Thus, the real time record will print out one waveform. If two waveforms are off, the real time
record will print out measure parameters only.
Note
If certain recording is in process, and another parameter demands alarm recording, it will only be executed
after the earlier recording is finished.
Auto recording
The monitor starts the recorder for 8 seconds according to interval time set in the "TIMING REC TIME" of the
"RECORD SETUP " menu. Refer to Chapter 3.4.8 Recorder Setup for details.
Alarm Recording
Parameter Alarm
The monitor records waveforms 4, 8, or 16 seconds prior to and after the alarm (totally 8, 16 or 32 seconds)
(which can be selected in System Menu). All parameter values during the alarm will also be recorded.
