If you want to start logging your ECG data press the lower left button (LEFT) to start and stop logging. Log files are written to the filesystem (ecg-\<time\>.log) and can be transferred to a computer using the boot loader. You can visualize them with Audacity: Use File→Import→Raw Data, select the log file, then use Signed 16-bit PCM, Little Endian, 1 Channel, offset 0, amount 100% and sample rate 128 Hz. Normalize the amplitude by selecting the entire track (Ctrl-A), then use Effect→Amplify and keep the suggested Amplification value.
