The MP data acquisition unit is the heart of all Core Packages. The MP Unit has an internal microprocessor to
control data acquisition an
d communication with the co
mputer. The MP Unit takes incoming signals and converts
them into digital signals that can be processed with the computer. There are analog input channels (four on
MP36/35 units, two on MP45), one of which can be used as a trigger input. The MP Unit must be connected to the
computer and electrodes, transducers, and/or I/O devices must be connected to the MP Unit. Users are suggested
to take a few minutes to become familiar with the MP Unit prior to making any connections.

Types of Input Devices
There are three types of devices that connect to the MP36/35 and
MP45: electrodes, transducers, and I/O devices.
Electrodes are relatively simple instruments that attach to the surface of the skin and pick up electrical
signals in the body.
