field.
Touch NEXT
to proceed to the electrode configuration screen
On the next screen Select the
3 lead cross channel
electrode
configuration.
And
Press START RECORDING
to begin the study.
The device will run a DAB selftest
It is important at this point now to check the signal quality as Good signal quality is required
for accurate monitoring of brain activity
Signal Icon
–
GREEN
means GOOD signal quality,
indicating all electrodes are below 10 kΩ and
electrode contact is good.
Signal Icon
–
YELLOW
means marginal signal
quality and electrode contact and one or more
electrodes is above 10 kΩ, yet below a 20 kΩ
threshold
Signal Icon
–
RED
means poor signal quality and
an electrode has exceeded 20 kΩ,
Always refer to the head graphic icons in the
Impedance view
