Receiver Tray Specifications
Operating Temperature: 30-45ºC
Dimensions (LxWxH): Receiver Tray + Faraday Cage
Pup: 181 mm x 175 mm x 21 mm (7.125″ x 6.875″ x .83″) + Faraday 203 mm x 254 mm (8″ x 10″)
Mouse: 345 mm x 210 mm x 21 mm (13.6″ x 8.25″ x .83″) + Faraday 356 mm x 305 mm x 305 mm(14″x 12″ x 12″)
Rat: 429 mm x 216 mm x 21 mm (16.9″ x 8.5″ x .83″) + Faraday 508 mm x 356 mm x 356 mm (20″ x 14″ x 14″)
Note: We do not recommend recording from pups with an adult receiver because the recordings will have more noise compared to recording from pups with the pup receiver, particularly if the pups are very immature (i.e., before weaning). Also, the larger rat base will be much harder to isolate in a temperature-controlled environment, which is highly recommended for pup recordings.
Maximum Animal Size: 1 Kg
Maximum Output: ±4 V
Sensors ship with default Gain setting; other Gain settings are available if requested before order is placed. AcqKnowledge software includes the scale settings for each sensor Gain option.
| Typical Use | Gain | Settings |
| EEG, ECoG, LFP – default | 2000x | ±1.0 mV range, 2.0 mVpp in = 4 V out |
| Status-Epilepticus | 800x | ±2.5 mV range, 5.0 mVpp in = 4 V out |
| LFP, EEG in rat or mouse pups | 4000x | ±0.5 mV range, 1.0 mVpp in = 4 V out |

System Extensions
Add SleepSign for Animals (SSA100W) for complete sleep data analysis.
Use Camera Systems (CAMSYS4 or CAMSYS8) to monitor and record protocols and animal behavior. Recorded video will be time synchronized to the physiological signals in AcqKnowledge for easy investigation of key areas of interest.
