recording, simply click Stop.
After you have finished all the data acquisition for a selected muscle, click Database

acquired data and begin processing it.

5.2.3 Data Processing

From the Subject Database window, highlight any of the trials you wish to process
and then click View/Analyse. A trace of the EMG will appear in the Signal window, as well
as any events that were entered using the Mark function during acquisition. In the center

graph. Both these displays can be used to manually inspect elements of the EMG signal.
On the right hand side in the Record Option, you can begin processing the EMG.
Clicking the Marker Menu brings up various options for manually adding markers,
automatically adding markers by threshold, Max/Min, etc. The main purpose of setting
markers is to define analysis periods of your trace. For specific details on marker options,
refer to pages 82 – 85 of the MyoResearch XP Master Edition manual.
Next is the Edit Menu. N.B. Any changes made to the EMG signal are permanent; it is
therefore recommended that a backup be made before editing the signal. Alternatively, save
any changes done in Edit mode with the option Save as...., which allows you to create a
