A wide range of physiological activity can be monitored with the TEL100C, including ECG, EOG, EEG, EDA/GSR, SKT, PPG, RSP and surface EMG. Specialized signal processing of physiologic variables (like RMS filtered EMG, or QRS detection) can be performed on the computer via calculation channels. The TEL100C system (module set) has an upper frequency limit of 500 Hz for each channel.
Performance levels for slow moving signals, such as temperature, force, strain, pressure:
-
MP150/MP100 + amplifier/transducer—best performance; this exceptionally stable configuration provides better noise performance and stability for slower moving high signal/noise ratio signals (such as temperatrure, strain, force, and pressure).
-
TEL100C (tethered)—good performance; suitable for any signal recorded with an SS series transducer but not recommended for physiological measurements requiring higher frequency measurements (e.g. certain evoked response applications).
-
TEL100C-RF (wireless)—not recommended for slower moving variables, with the marginal exception of GSR and SKT.
The TEL100C system includes a portable amplifier/transmitter, which converts up to four channels of data into a modulated data stream. This data stream travels over a single lightweight coaxial cable to the receiver module. The receiver module demodulates the data and sends it to the MP for recording and analysis.
In keeping with the modular design, the TEL100C will work with your current MP System and any other standard 100-series amplifiers. Up to four TEL100C module sets can be used with a single MP System. Each channel incorporates a switchable, non-distorting 50/60 Hz interference filter. Gain and bandwidth can be adjusted independently for each channel.
The TEL100C System includes:
1 x TEL100D-C receiver module
1 x TEL100M-C portable amplifier/transmitter
1 x CBL117 10 meter connection cable
