MPVS Ultra Control Interface
The Control Interface software allows the user to manage catheter configuration, calibrate
all signals, and measure resistivity through an intuitive graphical user interface.
Single-Segment Mode
The MPVS Ultra is shipped from the manufacturer in Single Segment Mode. This mode
only allows for the use of PV catheters with one volume segment such as the PVR-1045
and the SPR-838. A keycode must be entered in order to use the system in Multi-Segment
Mode.
Registration
The Registration Menu allows the user to upgrade a MPVS Ultra Single Segment to the full
Multi-Segment mode. If the user initially purchased the MPVS Ultra with Multi-Segment
capabilities, a keycode will be supplied with the shipment. For information about upgrading
a MPVS Ultra Single Segment unit for use with Multi-Segment PV catheters, please
contact Customer Service.
Export
The Export menu allows the user to save the Catheter Configuration settings for later use in
the PVAN Ultra analysis software. Saving the settings under a recognizable name and
recording the name in the study notes allows the user to load the settings into PVAN
Ultra
without having to enter the setting manually.
Catheter Configuration tab
The
Catheter Configuration
screen allows the user to configure the hardware for
operation with a specific catheter model by setting the appropriate electrode configuration,
choosing the field configuration, excitation current and gain setting. The user can also enter
blood resistivity and alpha for volume calibration.
