Natus Quantum Amplifier

User & Service Manual

9.4. Beginning a study

Once the equipment has been installed by your Natus qualified representative and a patient has been
connected to the Quantum system, a new EEG study can be started. For details on beginning a new EEG
study, consult the

NeuroWorks

manual directly.

NOTE:

In order to record a study the base unit must be connected to a PC and the

base unit must be connected to the Quantum breakout boxes via the patient cable.

NOTE:

Make sure to select the the correct amplifier hardware as well as the acquisition

profile in the New Study window in NeuroWorks.

The Running study screen displays.

Refer to the section

8.2 Touchscreen Icons

for icons available both in Idle mode and recording mode.
