2.2 SETTING UP STEP-BY-STEP
This section describes how to connect the cables in the Pressure Myograph System as illustrated in figure
2.1.
NOTE: Before proceeding setting up step-by step make sure that the pressure interface,
the microscope and the computer are switched off
1. Pressure Myograph to Pressure Interface connection: Connect the Pressure Myograph to the Pressure
Interface by using the grey 25/44-pin connection cable. Then connect the cable with the temperature
probe to the Pressure Myograph.
2. Pressure Interface to computer connection: Connect the Pressure Interface to the computer with the
USB cable, from the back panel of the Pressure Interface to the USB port on the computer.
3. Pressure Interface and oxygen supply connection: Connect the “Oxygen” inlet on the back of the
Pressure Interface to an adjustable oxygen supply using the “Atlas Copco Cablair hose” delivered with
the Pressure Myograph System.
4. Microscope/camera to computer connection:
A. DMT Inverted Microscope: Inside the DMT Microscope there is a USB camera wired to a USB cable
and one USB cable to power the microscope light. Connect the two USB cables from the DMT
Microscope to the computer USB ports.
B. Other microscope: Zeiss Axio vert A1, Nikon TS-100F, Motic AE 2000 etc. Connect the USB cable
from the USB camera mounted on the microscope to the computer USB port.
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE THAT THE HOSE IS SECURELY FASTENED TO THE “OXYGEN” INLET
USING THE HOSE CLIP. THE PRESSURE FROM THE OXYGEN SUPPLY MUST NOT EXCEED 1.0
