SNA and Pressure Master Receiver Controller (TR162)

Overview:

The MLE1162 SNA and Pressure Master Receiver Controller (TR162) performs analog reconstruction of the digital signal from the following Telemetry SNA and Pressure Transmitters:

• MLE1022 Telemetry SNA and Pressure Transmitter (Small Animal, TR46SP)
• MLE1023 Telemetry SNA and Pressure Transmitter (Large Animal, TR76SP) - Discontinued

The MLE1162 SNA and Pressure Master Receiver Controller (TR162) is supplied with one TRGel Syringe (that contains 0.5ml of biocompatible gel) for use with all pressure transmitters. However, ADInstruments recommend that the MLE1140 Blood Pressure Starter Pack is purchased in conjunction with each receiver.

The MLE1062 SNA and Pressure Master Receiver Controller (TR162) is included in the PL3516B107 Telemetry SNA and Pressure Foundation System for research using rats through to rabbits.

Key Advantages:

• Easily connects to a PowerLab data acquisition system (Output voltage ±3V)
• Record Sympathetic Nerve Activity, pressure and temperature signals simultaneously
• Receiver range of up to 5 meters
• Real time and offline analysis of data using PowerLab and LabChart
• Schedule data collection using the ML319 TR Scheduler Pod and TR Scheduler Extension for LabChart
• Collect data from multiple transmitters using the ML319 TR Scheduler Pod and Extension software
• Each Transmitter sends data on a separate frequency, allowing animals to be co-housed without shielding
• Receiver provides control of the transmitters, to activate, or initiate sleep mode when no data is required, thereby extending the charge of the transmitter battery.

Accessories:

• The MLE1150 Telemetry Antenna Extension(TRAntX) for Telemetry Receivers consists of a four meter extension cable between receiver and antenna. The antenna extension enables the antenna to be placed closer to the animal in large animal cages, in situations where the receiver cannot be placed near cage.

 

Features:

• Three analog BNC outputs of the rectified and integrated nerve signal(20-1000 ms time constants), calibrated pressure (arterial, bladder,venous, pleural) and temperature signals measured within the transmitter (for connecting to a PowerLab)
• User-selectable band-pass filters to 4 kHz for the SNA signal
• User-selectable switching between 12 transmitter frequencies either manually, or via LabChart using the Scheduler extension and the ML319 TR Scheduler Pod
• A manual switch to power down transmitters wirelessly, extending battery life

Applications:

The MLE1062 SNA and Pressure Master Receiver Controller (TR162) is included in the ML880B107 Telemetry SNA and Pressure Foundation System to record and analyze Sympathetic Nerve Activity (SNA) in addition to intravascular or intralumen pressure, as well as body temperature, wirelessly from individual compatible telemetry transmitters in rats through to rabbits.
