4.1
Preparation
1.
At the start of each session the operator must check the Magstim 200
2
and any accessories used
for any signs of external damage and to identify any cleaning required. If any cracks are visible in
the housing, or there is damage to any of the cables, the items must not be used and should be
returned to The Magstim Company Limited for servicing and repair. If cleaning is required, please
follow the instructions in Section 5 of this Operating Manual.
2.
Ensure that the Magstim 200

unit is switched off on the rear.

Connection

If a foot switch is to be used, insert the pneumatic connector of the foot switch to the rear panel
Foot Switch Socket on the Magstim 200
2
unit.
2.
If an external triggering or recording device is to be used, connect it to the Isolated Interface on
the rear of the Magstim 200
2
unit. Refer to Appendix B for more details on the Isolated Interface.
3.
Connect the stimulating coil to be used to the Magstim 200
