Caution for AC main lead FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT CAREFULLY This product is equipped with 2 types of AC main cable. One is for continental Europe, etc. and the other one is only for UK. Appropriate main cable must be used in each local area, since the other type of main cable is not suitable.
Safety Precautions Before using this unit please read these operating instructions carefully. Take special care to follow the warnings indicated on the unit itself as well as the safety suggestions listed below. Keep these precau- tions handy for future reference. The unit may be used only in the operating conditions and positions specified manufacturer.
Service - Never attempt to repair, disassemble or modify the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock could result if you ignore this precautionary measure. - If a problem occurs during operation (smoke is detected, etc.) contact your dealer immediately. - Disconnect the power supply if the unit will not be used for a long time.
Components and their functions Front panel (1) POWER To turn the amplifier on and off. Caution: Do NOT turn on the power with a "mini-plug" connected on the output terminal of the internal stimulators (#2, 3, 4 & 5). This may cause damage to the microelectrode(s) on the probe. (2) OUTPUT INT(V) [CH1] The output terminal for the variable, internal channel 1 (CH1) constant current stimulator.
Back Panel (13) INPUT To connect to the MED probe, through the MED-CO3 connector, to the amplifier. (14) OUTPUT(1-32CH) To connect the output of channels 1-32 to the to the first A/D board in the computer. (15) OUTPUT(33-64CH) To connect the output of channels 33-64 to the to the second A/D board in the computer. (16) SIGNAL OUTPUT BNC connectors used to send analog outputs from selected recording channels to an external amplifier, signal processor, or other device (e.g.

Precautions during use Always, turn ON the amplifier power BEFORE starting up the software. The software sends information to the Amplifier that is necessary for initialization of stimuli and the recorded data. Failure to do so (i.e. turn- ing ON power to the amplifier after the software starts up) will lead to inaccuracies in stimulus delivery and the data recorded.
