(

1

)  POWER LED 

 
LED indicating that the ISO-STIM 01D is powered on 
 

 
(

2

)  BIPOLAR ON/ BIPOLAR OFF switch 

 

Switch that selects the stimulus mode. Switching to BIPOLAR ON results in a stimulus 
with the same amplitude in positive and negative direction without any delay. Amplitude 
and duration settings are dependent on the mode of operation and/or the settings at the 
front panel or at the external stimulus generator 
BIPOLAR stimulus mode is only functional in GATE TTL INPUT MODE 

 
(

3

)  DURATION potentiometer 

 

Potentiometer that sets the duration of the stimulus (multiplied with the duration range 
factor) generated by the built-in timing unit (ANALOG INPUT MODE, GATE TTL 
MODE). The duration range factor is set by switch 

#4

 

 

(

4

)  DURATION range switch 

 

Switch for setting the DURATION range factor (x10 µs, x 100µs, x1 ms) 
 

 

Note

: Setting of 00 as duration is 

not

 defined and should 

not

 be set!! 

 
(

5

)  AMPLITUDE x0.1V / x CURRENT RANGE potentiometer 

 

Potentiometer that sets the amplitude of the stimulus generated by the internal 
timing  unit  (GATE  TTL  MODE).  In  VOLTAGE  output  mode  the  setting  is 
multiplied by 0.1 V. In CURRENT output mode the setting is multiplied by the 
setting of the CURRENT RANGE switch (

#6

). Switch 

#7

 sets the polarity of the 

stimulus 

 
(

6

)  CURRENT RANGE switch 

 
Switch for setting the CURRENT RANGE factor (x0.1 µA, x1 µA, x10 µA) 
 
 

(

7

)  +/0/- switch 

 
Switch  for  setting  the  polarity  of  the  stimulus.  In  “0”  position  the  internal  stimulus 
generation is disabled
