: Calibration is not required, most users 

can use factory presets. Calibration is an advanced procedure. 

TRANSMITTER BATTERY LIFE

IMPORTANT:

 

If the transmitter is to be stored for prolonged periods, it is strongly recommended that the 

battery be fully charged and the transmitter turned off prior to storage. Failure to do so may 
result in permanent damage to the battery.

 

SOFTWARE SETUP 

Recording data with AcqKnowledge software 

After completing setup, click Start in the Acq

Knowledge

 software to begin recording data.  

If the paired signal is interrupted due to electrical interference or a subject wandering out of range, the most 
recently-acquired data point will be retained, with normal acquisition continuing once communication is 
reestablished. See also:
