Auto scale videos ECG lead setups PowerLab labs: Lt Sensor labs: Otago Polytechnic acknowledgement Other improvements EDR - Lab v1.3.4 (Neuroscience, Psychophysiology) Mechanics of Ventilation - Lab v1.3.5 (Human Phys) Muscle and EMG - Lab v1.3.7 (Lt Sensors), Muscle and EMG - Lab v1.3.7 and PLP v1.3.2 (Human Phys, PCM, Psychophys, IN, Neuro) Skeletal Muscle Function - Lab v1.3.8 (PCM, Human Phys, Neuro, IN) Popup Library v1.0.2 (Getting Started with Lt, Getting Started with Lt LabStation)
Following the UI changes to the Auto Scale button, we have re-recorded a whole lot of videos and screenshots in lessons that show how to use various data panel tools. This affects almost every lab that has a data panel across all of our collections.
For all labs that use ECG, we have swapped the default lead setup from Lead I to Lead II. This means new images, videos, and instructions for the equipment setup pages. Lead I is now the alternative setup that appears in popups. We've also added extra troubleshooting tips for recording ECG. This affects the following labs for both PowerLab and Lt Sensors:
We’ve added an acknowledgement for OP’s help in creating these lessons, particularly the videos, to the first page of the Clinical Skills lessons.
