Contact ABL personnel in any trouble. Biomonitor ME6000 is a portable telemetry and data logger at 100 / 250 / 1000 / 2000 / 10000 Hz. Several different sensors can be connected to data logger; currently there are EMG, GSR, ECG and Accelerometer sensors in ABL.

Notice that the 2+2 adapter takes over 2 channels even though the sensor (for example GSR and ECG) would use only one signal line. For example GSR can be connected through the 1-2 channels of adapter to 1-4 port in ME6000. Then the signal is seen on channel 1, plus channel 2 is blocked.

ME6000 can handle simultaneously 16 channels of sensors. The device had 4 input ports, where each port can receive 4 line signals. Different sensors can either be connected directly to ME6000 like EMG, or through 2+2 adapter (like GSR or ECG). Notice that 2+2 adapter doesn’t handle sin- gle channels but a duel.

Cleaning: After the use, clean the sensor using a water and mild soap with dampened cloth. 6.1.1 Calibration Resistors (100kOhm and 300 kOhm) can be used to calibrate the system. Detailed guide for calibration procedure can be found from “800576-1.1, ME6000 sensor guide for MegaWin”. Image 2: 100kOhm and 300 kOhm resistors.
