Pre-Acquisition
The purpose of the pre-acquisition state is to allow you to
preview the signal morphology to verify that electrodes
are placed properly and hooked up correctly. The
Left and
Right
buttons allow you to cycle through each of the enabled
channels. After verifying signals, Context Button
B
will start the
acquisition or Context Button
A
will return to configuration.
!
Due to the data processing and frequent screen
updates, the Pre-Acquisition state drains the battery
faster than either Configuration or Acquisition. So, it is
advantageous to return to the Configuration state after
verifying signals if the acquisition is not starting soon.
Acquisition
In this state, data is being recorded to the SD card. The SD card is locked the entire
time and should not be removed until acquisition is ended. Context Button
A
and
Context Button
B
are configured to record events when pressed.
!
Do not be alarmed if it appears that the timer is not
counting up. It is designed to only update every 5 seconds
to maximize runtime.
Unlocking Acquisition
Acquisition is unlocked by holding the
left and right
arrow
buttons at the same time. This puts the acquisition into a mode
similar to pre-acquisition where signals can be viewed. Use the
left and right
arrows
to cycle through the different signals. This is useful for checking on electrodes
between phases of a study.
The acquisition will stay unlocked for 10 seconds after any key press and then
automatically return to the locked state. No events can be recorded while unlocked.
