    SD32+ System Introduction DC Expansion Box Figure 1. the SD32+ system 3.2. headbox Patient electrodes and sensors plug into the SD32+ amplifier headbox. There are 68 input sockets that accept 1.5-mm electrode safety plugs including 32 AC monopolar input sockets, 8 pairs of AC bipolar input sockets, 3 neutral input sockets, 13 isolated ground input sockets, 2 temperature input sockets, and 2 calibration signal output sockets.
  • Page 16: Electrode Sockets

    SD32+ Introduction System Amplifier Connection Port – This port allows the Headbox to be physically connected to the amplifier (this process is referred to as “docking” the Headbox). See Figure 2. the headbox amplifier connection port for an illustration of this port. Figure 2.

    SD32+ System Introduction Figure 5. headbox electrode sockets Monopolar Input Sockets – These input sockets, labeled with numbers ranging from “1” to “32”, accept monopolar signals from the patient. The amplified signal is the difference in potential between a monopolar input socket and its reference electrode socket. Channels collected using these input sockets may be referenced to the Neutral (NE) input sockets.

    The screen powers down again twenty seconds after the last button is pressed. After a montage in the Sandman Elite software has been selected, the LCD screen provides the following menu options: Impedance Check, Montage Setup, Digital Display, and Channel Display.
  • Page 22: Integrated Pulse Oximeter

    The integrated pulse oximeter calculates oxygen saturation (SpO ) and heart rate (HR) data collected using an approved sensor. The Sandman Elite software receives this data and displays it on the computer monitor. The pulse oximeter’s accuracy depends on the sensor used with the device. For some sensors, the accuracy of neonatal data may differ from that of adult data.
