%     [ECG samples_read] = read_311_format( filename, start_sample, end_sample, heasig )
% 
% Reads ECG recordings in 311 format. Implements the documentation
% available in WFDB.
% 
% Arguments:
%   + filename: recording to be read.
%   + start_sample: (opt) start sample to read. Default 1.
%   + end_sample: (opt) end sample to read. Default min(All recording, ECG block of 200 Mbytes)
% 
% Output:
%   + ECG: the ECG block
%   + heasig: header with the ECG properties. 
%   + ann: annotations for the ECG recordings.
% 
% Limits:
% This routine is limited to read blocks smaller than 200 Mbytes for
% performance reasons. You can disable this limit by doing:
% MaxIOread = Inf; %megabytes
% 
% 
% Example:
