  • Page 8: Precautions During Use

    Precautions during use Always, turn ON the amplifier power BEFORE starting up the software. The software sends information to the amplifier for initialization of the internal stimulators and other features (e.g. filtering) necessary for accurate recording of data. Failure to do so (i.e. turning ON power to the amplifier after the software starts up) will lead to inaccuracies in stimulus delivery and the data recorded.
