What is a LabChart buffer file?
LabChart buffer files are temporary files that store information about data and settings in case the computer crashes. After a crash, these files are automatically reloaded (when re-opening LabChart) to restore previously lost data. LabChart for...
Can Delsys EMG Sensors be used on animals?
Yes. Many studies and applications have successfully employed Delsys EMG sensors and systems on animals. Be sure to correctly identify appropriate muscle sites and remove all fur/hair prior to applying the sensors. Wipe the site carefully with...

What do the various Beat Marker colors represent in HRV 2.0?
The Beat Marker colors in HRV 2.0 are used to classify Normal, Ectopic, and Unused beats: Blue = Normal beats that fit into the RR Interval and Beat Complexity defined in the HRV Settings. Gray = Unused beats. For instance, the first two beats that...
The digital Output found on the rear of some PowerLab models, is unable to receive signals from a device using a digital communication standard at this time. If the digital device in question also has analog outputs for the desired signals, it is a...
Is it possible to connect a single segment PV catheter to the P2 input of the MPVS Ultra unit?
Yes, you can connect the low profile connector of the single segment PV catheter (and any Mikro-Tip® pressure catheter) to the PEC-10D interface cable to obtain the pressure signal of that catheter. Connecting it to P2 will input the signal to the...
The Equivital Life Monitor can measure the following parameters as standard: 2 leads of ECG – Heart Rate, Interbeat interval Respiration Rate and Effort – Via thoracic expansion of the chest Skin Temperature – via infrared temperature sensor of the...
How can I achieve constant pressure in Langendorff Mode on my Radnoti Isolated Heart System?
A constant pressure is set using gravity and the elevation of the Aortic Bubble Trap Compliance chamber. 1mmHg = 13.6mm water. Typically 1 meter of elevation is recommended. If you are having difficulty with setting and maintaining a constant...
What training resources are available from ADInstruments?
ADInstruments provides several resources for training and support. The links below describe the various training options. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can help you as you get started with your ADInstruments equipment. Training Videos We...
All expressions in the Arithmetic Channel Calculation feature are evaluated by first converting any source data from a channel into un-prefixed units (e.g. if the source channel is in mV, it is converted to V by dividing by 1000). The original unit...
Yes, this is possible. The primary application for Millar Mikro Tip Pressure Transducers is the measurement of blood pressure, and all Millar pressure catheters have a linear range of -50 mmHg to 300 mmHg. However, Millar pressure catheters also have...
Can I use the GLP Client without the GLP Server?
It is not possible to use the GLP Client without the Server. Whilst the GLP Client and GLP Server are sold separately, one copy of the GLP Server runs multiple copies of the GLP Client within a network. It is important that each computer is...
What can be done to optimize EEG recording for alpha waves in the EEG Student Protocol?
There are a few things that can be done to optimize the settings for EEG recording in cases where the quality of the EEG recording might be suffering. One problem that can occur with EEG recording will be a wandering baseline, or movement of the EEG...
Should the Pod port Inputs or Bio Amp Inputs on an Education Series PowerLab be used for recording signals from an isolated nerve?
The Education Series PowerLab's Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) 8-pin Pod inputs and Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) 6-pin Bio Amp input are both suitable differential inputs for recording selected...
Can I import data into LabChart from Delsys EMGWorks software?
Data that has been previously recorded in Delsys EMGWorks software, can be exported as a *.csv file. This can be opened in Excel or similar and then saved as a *.txt file which can subsequently be opened by LabChart. This is achieved by opening...
Can Delsys EMG Sensors be used inside MRI machines?
Delsys EMG systems are not approved for use in MRI machines. MRI machines make use of very strong magnetic fields that may induce unwanted currents in metallic objects they traverse. The sensitive electronic components used in Delsys EMG systems will...
Why is the perfusion pressure too high in my hearts using a compact Langendorff system?
Our compact Langendorff systems such as the Rodent Langendorff Apparatus , utilize the STH Pump Controller to maintain the perfusion flow and pressure. Here are some ideas to help you troubleshoot your system for potential problems: PRESSURE ·...
Is the Equivital sensor belt MRI compatible?
Equivital’s LifeMonitor is a sensor worn on the body which measures multiple physiological parametersfrom a single device. The system is contained within a " belt " worn on the chest. The belt system contains components that make it UNSAFE for use in...
The Rat Telemeter tab (see below) in ConfigSoft will have all the functions required to setup and control the Optogenetics Telemeter. By selecting the Optogenetics Telemeter Setup button, the corresponding window will appear with the current...
When using Arithmetic on Spectrum Channel Calculations, why does the output look wrong?
A range of Spectrum channel calculations are available in LabChart. Like many other calculations which produce discrete results, these are displayed using step interpolation, i.e. a series of connected horizontal lines. However if you create an...
