Impedance Check
An impedance check is performed to ensure that the electrode contact with the patient is satisfactory. You
can perform an impedance check at any time during a study.
To Run an Impedance Check from the Software
When an impedance check is initiated, the software scans all channels (in auto scan mode).

An impedance check displays bar graphs that show the impedance of each electrode connection. A
green
bar indicates that the reading is below the set threshold. A
red
bar indicates the reading is above
the threshold. To set the impedance threshold, click one of the
Threshold
buttons in the
Threshold
