For non-invasive use, needle probes can be placed above the tissue such
that the tip is in gentle contact with, or very close proximity to, the tissue.
Ensuring that the probe is maintained in a perpendicular position will help
maximize signal quality and minimize the effects of ambient light.
Optionally, needle probes may be mounted in a micromanipulator assembly
or stand.
Our needle type probe for MCAO applications (MNP100NX-3/10) can be
secured to bone (skull) via dedicated miniature holders (product code MH-
05/MH-10),

Digital (USB) Data Output
Our monitors now offer compatibility with the highly acclaimed LabChart®
Pro data recording and analysis software by ADInstruments.
LabChart supports direct streaming of real-
time recordings to a PC, via the dedicated
USB output at the rear of the monitor.
Compatibility requires a dedicated and free
software Add-on for LabChart (the ‘Device Enabler’*), which supports
automatic recognition of the Oxford Optronix monitor, the use of multiple
Oxford Optronix monitors simultaneously and provides a choice of pre-
loaded configuration settings specifically tailored to our monitors.
The Add-on also supports the simultaneous recording of data from an
existing AD Instruments PowerLab® module.
A single LabChart Pro user license, inclusive of 5 years of free updates is
available to order.
The Oxford Optronix Device Enabler can be downloaded via the ‘Feature
Manager’ utility integral to LabChart.
Alternatively the Oxford Optronix Device Enabler is available for download
from the ‘Downloads’ section of the ADInstruments website.
Dedicated instructions for setting up LabChart Pro for recording from
OxyFlo Pro monitors can be found on our support site (
