Use the clip of the EXG TP cable to attach the EXG TP sensor to prevent pulling of the cables.
Place the Minicap or Microcap on the head.
Apply some Electro gel to the electrodes by using a cotton swab or a syringe with blunt
needle.
Place the ear clips with the black (reference) electrodes on to the left and right earlobe.
Due to the fluid nature of electro gel, rubbing the skin with an abrasive gel is usually not necessary.
When using electrode paste (e.g. Ten20), rub the skin with a cotton swab and Nuprep at all electrode
positions. The location of the ground electrode is preferably near other electrodes on the scalp.
Remove residual gel with a tissue. As an alternative to using Nuprep, alcohol pads are sometimes
used.
