Nicolet Cortical Stimulator

Revised 8/27/13
Nicolet Cortical Stimulator
The Cortical Stimulator design includes, as a safety feature, the ability to monitor the stimulus output and
compare it with the stimulus parameters requested. If these two results differ (e.g. as a result of Electrical Fast
Transients {EFT} or Electrical Static Discharge {ESD}) the safety checking logic will automatically abort the
stimulator output and display an error message that indicates the reason for the difference. As an additional
safety feature, the stimulator power must be recycled and/or the Nicolet software application restarted in order to
clear this error and reset the device.
Table 2 – Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic emissions –
for the Nicolet Cortical Stimulator.
Nicolet Cortical Stimulator with Nicolet LTM
The Nicolet Cortical Stimulator incorporates fault protection to detect external noise sources and requires a
power cycle to clear this event. It is acceptable for the Nicolet Cortical Stimulator to detect an error during EFT
and ESD immunity testing as long as the user can recover by repowering the Nicolet Cortical Stimulator and/or
restarting the application software.
Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration – Electromagnetic Emissions
The Nicolet Cortical Stimulator is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user of the
Nicolet Cortical Stimulator should assure that it is used in such an environment.

RF emissions
CISPR 11
Group 1
The Nicolet Cortical Stimulator uses RF
energy only for its internal function.
Therefore, its RF emissions are very low
and are not likely to cause any interference
in nearby electronic environment.

Class A
The Nicolet Cortical Stimulator is suitable
for use in all establishments, including
domestic establishments and those directly
connected to the public low-voltage power
supply network that supplies buildings
used for domestic purposes.
