Annex 4. Trig In/Out

53

2.  Connect the external stimulator to the trig out with a cable.

3.  Switch on the external stimulator power supply.

4.  Run the program and uncheck the

Third-party firm stimulator

 checkbox

in the stimulation parameters settings.

5.  In the stimulation settings it is recommended to set those stimulus parameters

which the external stimulator has as these particular values are saved together

with the trace and taken into analysis.

In other aspects the signal acquisition does not differ from the one described
in the corresponding chapters of the given manual.
