1.1Introduction

The RIGEL 344 isabiomedicaltestinstrumentthatcombinesthe

completetesting functionsofadefibrillatortester,apacemakeranalyser,and

anECGarrhythmiasimulatorintoonecompactinstrument.

The Rigel344 isdesignedtoaccuratelymeasuretheoutputparametersof

defibrillators andexternalpacemakers,including bothtransthoracicand

transcutaneousdevices.Itsimulatesawidevarietyofarrhythmiawaveforms

fortesting automaticdefibrillatorsand ECGequipment.
