Electrode montage
All Sera
TM
protocols are designed to be use with a nape montage. The electrode montage indicates where
electrodes should be placed for testing and the baby picture displayed on the test screen and on the
preamplifier guides the user where to place the electrodes. The predefined nape electrode montage tells the
system which is the active, reference and ground electrode. Use of an alternative montage (such as a
mastoid montage) may increase test times or produce more refer results.
Result
All protocols will indicate a Pass/Refer result for the test or, if the measurement is stopped before completion
of the test, Incomplete will appear.
