  • Page 6 The Hum Bug is not a filter. It is a new class of instrument capable of eliminating electrical interference from analogue signals without creating phase shifts, frequency loss, amplitude errors, DC shifts, time delays, or digital distortion.

    Therefore, the output contains only the original signal of interest. The controls on the front panel allow you to interrupt the normal operation of the Hum Bug. When the Hold Key is activated the ADAPTOR halts and the CONSTRUCTOR does not update The figure below illustrates the internal operations of the Hum Bug.

    3. Fuse Holders – The Hum Bug is fitted with a pair of 250mA fuses which should only ever noise level is about to occur and you do not want the Hum Bug to disturb its present level of be replaced with the same type.

    The LED will also alert you if the noise amplitude grows beyond and the power switch is on the back of the unit. Insert the Hum Bug at any point in the chain the 1 volt upper limit for cancellation. Under these conditions the LED will continue to flash red of instruments after the signal from your electrode or sensor is buffered and before the indefinitely and some noise will remain in the output signal.
  • Page 11 However, keep in mind that a person standing or sitting signals as large as 50 Volts will pass through the Hum Bug, the procedure used to adapt to in front of a monitor can distort the electric field emanating from its screen. As a result, even changing noise levels only operates while the signal is below 5 Volts peak-to-peak.

    This description assumes that you are and output of the Hum Bug should be identical. Here are some explicit steps to help you with recording neuronal activity using a micropipette, but a similar procedure could be used for the procedure.
  • Page 13  After a brief pause, the Hum Bug will begin to adapt to the noise on the input and the noise sources. Try to determine the source of the noise by systematically turning off the power on on the output should gradually decrease to minimal levels.
  • Page 14  Check your cables to make sure that the braided shield is connected to the ground ring of the BNC connector on both ends. 1. Are you attempting to use the Hum Bug on very low level signals (less than 1 mV)? If so, circuit noise from the Hum Bug may be detected on the output.
