Once a license key has been procured and entered into the
form, the ‘Enable’ button will become active.
To request a license key, click the ‘Request License Key’
button. An information form will appear with the details
required by the customer services team, along with contact
details.
This information can be copied to the clipboard by clicking
on the hyperlink. A notification message will appear at the
bottom right of the screen. These details can then be copied
directly into an email ready for sending to customer services.
Upon entering a valid license key, another form will appear
to inform the user that the protocol has been enabled.
To make this change permanent, the user must still re-
program the hand on the bebionic main form by pressing
the
‘Send to Hand’
button. See section 5.5.10 for details on
this function.
To disable an active External Control Protocol, the same
steps can be used to do so. No key is required to disable
this feature.
5.7 Electrodes
To monitor, review and adjust the electrode signals, select
the ‘Electrode Screen’ button, to view the Myo Configuration
/ Trainer window as shown below.
5.7.1 Threshold Levels
The sliders highlighted on the screen are used to
independently adjust on-threshold and maximum levels of
the individual channels on the hand.
The Blue line shows the current ON threshold level.
The Red line shows the current MAX threshold level.
The electrode threshold and maximum levels can be
adjusted using the relevant sliders. The strength of the
signal is displayed as a green vertical bar with the peak
signal indicated as single green line.
The animation enables modification of the threshold settings
to be simulated without the need to keep sending data to
the hand. The hand animation will open and close in the
response to the electrode signals.
These can then be sent to the hand once the user is
comfortable with the settings. On closing the form, the
settings are retained for configuring the hand using the
‘Send to Hand’ option.
