The parameters are described in detail in the following paragraphs. In this first use, the 
operator can move between the four template screens using the buttons at the bottom 
marked by the characters “>>” and “<<”, which allow him/her to move between the pages 
whose title is shown in the heading inside the button. The logical sequence of the 
parameter pages is described below. 
• 

Session  parameters, divided into parameters for defining the electrode 

arrangement and measurement parameters, associated with the chosen measurement 
method. For a description of the page, see section 4.2.3. 
• 

Electrodes: the associations between logic electrodes and MPX/physical 

electrodes, and the position in XYZ coordinates of each physical electrode are displayed 
in table form. For a description of the page, see section 4.2.4. 
• 

Measurements: all the measurements foreseen by the chosen method are displayed 

in table form, with the indication of the number of logic electrode involved in each of the 
roles A, B, M and N, and the calculation of the geometric coefficient K. See paragraph 
4.2.5 for a description of the page. 
• 

Electrical parameters: some electrical parameters used by the system to perform 

the session measurements are displayed. For a description of the page, see section 4.2.6. 

Moving on to the measurement session 

After displaying the basic template for the measurement session, the operator must press 
the “Go to Measurement Session” button from any of the four template display windows 
to proceed with the execution of the session's measurements.  
The system will prompt the operator to choose the directory and file name in BPD (Binary 
Pasi Data) format in which the measurement session and all related values, as well as the 
measurements taken, will be saved. After this operation, the session file will be saved and 
available for the operator to view and execute, without the need to open the corresponding 
template.   

Execution of measurement sessions 

After entering the name of the measurement session file, the system will display the 
session information in a format similar to that used for templates. The display windows 
of a session are recognisable by their title, which reads “Session:” followed by the name 
of each individual page. 
The parameters of the measurement session, deriving from the template from which it 
was generated, are presented on the same four windows used for the templates, therefore:
