Operating the EP-4
The EP-4 is operated by pressing command keys on the
keyboard or buttons on the touch screen computer.
Stimulation parameters (such as the stimulus duration) are
displayed on the touch screen computer. These stimulation
parameters are easily modified using the touch screen or
keyboard and are stored on the computer hard drive . After
an initial setup, most protocols will require very little
changing of their parameters.
The EP-4 offers all the power of a computerized stimulator
yet its unique interface avoids complex commands.
Stimulus patterns are controlled simply by changing
parameters on the touch screen computer.
