GAIN switch 

10-position switch for selecting the GAIN of the output signal at the OUTPUT 
connector (#12). Amplification factors: x10, x20, x50, x100, x200, x500, x1k, 
x2k, x5k, x10k.

OUTPUT connector 

BNC connector providing the recorded and conditioned signal. 
 
 
 

 
(14)

 

ZERO ADJ. trimpot 

Trimpot for compensating for amplifier offsets. If the baseline is not zero even 
if  the  input  is  grounded  (INPUT  switches  #14  set  to  OFF),  this  offset  can  be 
compensated for. 

 

Compensation procedure: 

 

Set the input switches (#14) to OFF to ground the inputs, and set the HIGH PASS FILTER 
to 400 Hz. 

 

Set the GAIN range switch to 1k and adjust the baseline to zero using the trimpot. 

 

Set the GAIN range switch to 10k and adjust the baseline again if necessary. 

 
(14) 

INPUT switches 

Switches  for  grounding  the  INPUT  connectors  (#16)  or  the  headstage  connector 
(#15). One switch for the + IN and one for the –IN  
 
Important: In differential measurements both switches for + IN and – IN have to be 
set to ON. In single-ended measurements the switch for the INPUT that is not used 
must be set to OFF!! (see also chapter (3)). 
 

Also very Important: Setting both switches to OFF means that both inputs are grounded, i.e. 
measurement is impossible!! This applies also if a headstage is used since these switches will 
also ground the headstage inputs REF and P

EL

 if set to OFF!! 

 
 
(15) 

HEADSTAGE connector 

 

Connector for the optional headstage (see also chapter (3)).
