Compatibility: Specifically for Bionet Cardiocare 2000 and Cardiotouch 3000 ECG machines.
Type: Thermal recording paper.
Quantity: 5 rolls per package.

3. Setup: Loading the Chart Paper

Proper loading of the chart paper is crucial for uninterrupted and accurate ECG recordings. Refer to your specific Bionet ECG machine's user manual for detailed instructions on opening the paper compartment.

Power Off: Ensure the ECG machine is powered off before loading or replacing paper to prevent accidental operation or damage.
Open Paper Compartment: Locate and open the paper compartment cover on your Bionet Cardiocare 2000 or Cardiotouch 3000 machine.
Remove Old Roll (if applicable): If replacing an empty roll, carefully remove the core of the used paper.
Insert New Roll: Place the new 215mm x 25m chart paper roll into the compartment. Ensure the paper feeds from the bottom of the roll, with the grid side facing upwards towards the thermal print head. The leading edge of the paper should be positioned correctly for the machine to grip it.
Feed Paper: Gently pull a small length of paper (approximately 5-10 cm) out of the machine's paper exit slot.
Close Compartment: Securely close the paper compartment cover. Ensure it latches properly to prevent paper jams during operation.

4. Operating Considerations

Once the paper is loaded, the ECG machine is ready for operation. Follow the instructions in your Bionet Cardiocare 2000 or Cardiotouch 3000 user manual for performing an ECG test.

Print Quality: Ensure the paper is correctly aligned and the thermal print head is clean for optimal print quality.
Paper Feed: Monitor the paper feed during printing to prevent jams or misfeeds.
End of Roll: The machine typically indicates when the paper roll is nearing its end. Replace the roll promptly to avoid interruption during a critical recording.

5. Maintenance and Storage

Proper maintenance and storage of the chart paper are essential to preserve its quality and ensure reliable performance.

Storage:

Environment: Store paper rolls in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat or humidity. Ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 25°C (50°F and 77°F) with relative humidity between 40% and 60%.
Packaging: Keep unused rolls in their original packaging until ready for use to protect them from dust, light, and moisture.
Chemicals: Avoid contact with chemicals, solvents, or adhesive tapes, as these can degrade the thermal coating and affect print quality.

Handling:

Handle paper rolls by the edges to avoid transferring oils or dirt to the thermal surface.
Do not bend or crease the paper, as this can cause feeding issues or affect print accuracy.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues related to the chart paper. For machine-specific troubleshooting, consult your Bionet ECG machine's user manual.

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Blank or Faint Print	Paper loaded incorrectly (non-thermal side up). Thermal print head is dirty. Paper stored improperly (exposed to heat/light).	Re-load paper with the thermal (grid) side facing the print head. Clean the thermal print head according to your ECG machine's manual. Ensure proper storage conditions for new rolls.
Paper Jams	Paper not loaded straight. Paper compartment cover not closed properly. Damaged paper roll.	Open compartment, remove paper, and re-load carefully, ensuring it's straight. Verify the compartment cover is securely latched. Replace with a new, undamaged roll.
Inconsistent Grid Lines	Paper quality issue. Print head issue (less likely for paper-specific problem).	Try a different roll from the same batch. If the problem persists, contact your supplier. Consult your ECG machine's manual for print head calibration or cleaning.
