CONNECTING THE ELECTRODE LEAD WIRES
Connect the three electrode lead wires securely into the
electrode jacks on top of the preamplifier, matching the
color of the lead wire with the jack. Be sure they are fully
inserted into the jack.
CHARGING NOVUS
The Novus is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery. The battery is
charged by placing the Novus in the AC powered cradle.
The cradle is powered by plugging the power supply into the micro
USB connector on the back of the cradle and plugging the other end
into an AC outlet using the appropriate adapter for your region. Use
only the power supply delivered by GSI for powering the cradle.
Place the Novus into the cradle so that it sets within the U-shaped
placement guides. Proper placement in the cradle is needed to
ensure charging of the battery. Magnets in the cradle and the device
form a connection to reduce the chance that the Novus will fall out
of the cradle. The battery automatically starts charging when the
Novus is placed properly into the AC-powered cradle.
An LED on the front of the Novus will light differently depending on the charging status.
