Impedance Check
An impedance check is performed to ensure that the electrode contact with the patient is satisfactory. You
can perform an impedance check at any time during a study.
Running an Impedance Check from the Software
When an impedance check is initiated, the software scans all channels (in auto scan mode).
Start the impedance check
Choose Controls > Impedance Check
Click Lock Channel. Then make adjustments to the
electrode connection until satisfactory levels are achieved
Proceed to a full impedance check
Save the impedance check as part of the
study
Click End and Start Recording
An impedance check displays bar graphs that show the impedance of each electrode connection. A
green bar indicates that the reading is below the set threshold. A red bar indicates the reading is above
the threshold. To set the impedance threshold, click one of the Threshold buttons in the Threshold
Group box on the right side of the Check Impedance box.
