Setting the Threshold Potentiometer
The threshold control’s main function is to set a goal value for the
EMG signal. When that value is reached, the tone is heard, which
provides immediate feedback to reward or inhibit a particular
behavior. This control can also be used to place the EMG signal at a
desired point on the bar graph, moving it right or left by turning the
knob.
It is also possible to determine the exact EMG reading in micro
Volts. As previously mentioned, when the signal is at the first
yellow LED, EMG activity corresponds to the threshold setting.
The left-most LED indicates one-half the threshold value and the
right-most LED is twice the threshold value.
