  • Page 10: Device Overview

    Device Overview Introduction This isolator is designed to be used together with an electronic stimulator (1001) for electric stimulation. This device insulates the output from ground. This minimizes the area of stimulation to produce stimulation with greater precision while reducing stimulation artifacts, facilitating observation of evoked action potential.

    Parts and Functions Front panel Rear panel Description Part 1 +/–: Selects the polarity of the stimulator output to display on the OUTPUT MONITOR 2. Stimulator output display polarity switch This setting is not related to 7. +: Displays the positive pulse of the stimulator output on the OUTPUT MONITOR 2.
  • Page 12: Operation

    Operation Connections Connect this device to our electronic stimulator (1001). CAUTION Do not touch the connector pins. Discharge electrostatic energy by touching a grounded metal part before connecting. The instrument may be damaged by electrostatic energy. Connect the power cable of the electronic stimulator. Note: For information on how to connect the power cable of the electronic stimulator and how to connect it to ground, refer to the Operator’s...
  • Page 13: Output Setup For Constant Voltage Stimulation

    Output setup for constant-voltage stimulation Set the electronic stimulator in operating mode and set the output voltage to maximum. Use the +/– switch (Stimulator output display polarity switch) to select the output polarity to be displayed on the OUTPUT MONITOR. VOLTAGE MAG S T I M / O F F OUTPUT MONITOR...
  • Page 14: Precautions

    Precautions Make sure that the electronic stimulator is turned off before connecting this isolator. Never leave the device in an overload condition (output terminals short- circuited) for five minutes or more. When the CURRENT ALARM switch is on, the constant-current range over alarm indicates that the isolator output dynamic range is not sufficient with regard to the load electrode resistance and cannot let through the current at the set value.
  • Page 15: Maintenance

    Maintenance CAUTION When maintaining (cleaning, sterilizing, etc.) the stimulator, be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cable from the power outlet first. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock or malfunction. After Use Inspection Be sure to conduct the following after-use inspections after finishing stimulator use.
