1 Introduction to the Actiwave System
1.1
An Overview
of the
Actiwave
System
The Actiwave system is designed to offer maximum
flexibility for the recording of physiological waveforms.
Instead of one bulky multi-channel recorder, the Actiwave
devices are available in 1, 2 or 4 channels and are
physically small enough to be located close to the
measuring electrodes.
Components required for a system
The Actiwave system consists of 3 main components:
One or more Actiwave recorders with appropriate
electrodes.
USB Interface Dock.
PC
Software
providing
set-up,
download
and
maintenance functions.
