IV. EEG Data Acquisition

A. Impedance Testing

Before proceeding to data acquisition, it is important to conduct impedance testing to ensure


quality of EEG signals that will be measured.
1. Important
rtant notes before using this function:
a) Make sure the EEG amplifier is connected to the PC, all EEG channels on the EEG cap are
connected to the amplifier, and the subject has worn the EEG cap properly.
b) Impedance testing and EEG data acquisition cannot be done at the same time.

Fig 4-1A EEG amplifier during Impedance testing mode

2. Click on [Impedance] at the Setting section of the Main Interface to open the Impedance
Testing window, and then click “Start” to begin impedance testing. Without any adjustments,
adjustment
the impedance values displayed for each channel should be more than 500kOhms.

3. If the channel values failed to display, press “On/Off” button at top of the EEG amplifier
once or twice to activate the impedance testing. If the values still did not disp

lay correctly,
reopen the impedance testing window.
NOTE: The EEG amplifier shines in green and/or red during impedance testing mode. If the

light persists after you close the impedance testing window, press “On/Off” button to
switch it off.
4. Once the impedance
ance values are displayed, proceed to reduce the impedance level while
measuring the impedance level with this window.
a) Use a syringe with non-bevelled
bevelled needle and EEG gel to reduce the impedance. Make sure
the needle tip is clean and rust
rust-free.
b) Fill the syringe
ringe tube with EEG gel (you can draw it from the front, or pour it in from the
back). If you fill the syringe tube from the back, it is recommended to fill at 80% full, so the
gel does not leak from the needle tip.
c) Inject the EEG gel into each channel of the EEG cap through the small hole at the connector.
You can remove the EEG cable head before injecting the gel, although it will be messier
when you reconnect the cable.
NOTE: Always begin injecting the gel from the channel that is related to most channels,
channe
e.g. If you are using Referential EEG lead configuration (all channels use REF as reference),
begin with the REF and GRD channels, because they will affect readings of all channels.
NOTE: For A1 and A2 channels (located at the ears), use button electr
electrode
ode cables and pads
for impedance control instead.
d) Observe the impedance level decrease with the injecting of EEG gel. Make sure the
impedance change corresponds to the correct channel, or you need to switch the cable
connections of the EEG cap.
5. When impedance
dance of all channels reaches safe level (approximately below 50 or when
impedance light on amplifier becomes green, depending on user), the EEG hardware setup
is complete and is ready for data acquisition.
NOTE: After completing impedance testing, check the
the bottom row of the EEG amplifier
and make sure no light is on. Otherwise press the “On/Off” button to switch it off.
NOTE: Impedance test module (software method) can support up to 60 preset channels.
To customize different EEG channel configurations, please
please contact Neurostyle or its
authorized suppliers.

Appendix 4 Troubleshooting
Functional changes listed below are all the possible problems that may happen after using the
equipment for some time due to wear and tear:
1. EEG Amplifier cannot be switched
witched on.
a) Battery power is low. If amplifier can boot when connected to AC power supply, charge
the battery within the EEG amplifier to resolve issue;
b) Button issue: To switch on the amplifier, press and hold power switch for 2 seconds;
similarly, press and
nd hold power switch for 2 seconds to switch off the amplifier. When
holding, the power indicator light on amplifier should be flashing.
NOTE: The power switch mentioned above is the green button at front of amplifier
(see Chapter 1 Section A for the locat
location)
2. The computer system cannot install the EEG instrument.
a) Driver programs are lost due to computer system error. You can recover the driver
programs from the installation CD disk provided with the EEG system package if you are
sure that the computer is not
not infected by viruses or malware and the system is not
damaged;
b) For Windows 8, Windows 10 and newer Windows OS, a procedure called Disable Driver
Signature Enforcement needs to be done first before the hardware driver can be
installed. Please refer to Chapter II, Section C for the steps to follow. The
he steps can
actually be found online if you prefer a different approach to do it.
c) Hardware failure of the amplifier may cause the installation to fail. You may verify by
following the operations mentioned in a) and b) to determine whether the issue is
caused by the amplifier or due to connection cable problem.. If this problem persists,
please contact your supplier for help.
d) Neurostyle EEG software is not tested on non
non-Windows
Windows OS environment such as Linux
or Mac OS, not even any emulated Windows environment. Any attempts to install
and/or run the software in those OS environments should be done at own risk.
3. EEG Amplifier serial ID not recognized, or EEG signal cannot be acquired.
a) EEG controller is switched on, bu
but the EEG amplifier is not switched on;
b) If both controller and amplifier are switched on, check whether the fiber optic indicator
lights at the ports on the controller and amplifier are lit. if the indicator lights are not lit,
the causes can be:
i. EEG Controller
oller and/or EEG Amplifier is off: Switch on the hardware to resolve;
ii. Fiber optic cable is faulty: Replace fiber optic cable.

mputer. This indicates that USB cable is faulty,
and should be replaced;
d) Check whether the computer drive program identified is correct through the Device
Manager. Reinstallation of driver may be required (Refer to Chapter II, Section C for
hardware driver installation steps).
4. No signal detected from electrode cables.
a) Electrode cables are not connected properly. This can be resolved by removing and
reconnecting the cables;
b) Signal detection issue is caused by data source setting in software. Reset data sourc
source
setting to match hardware connections.
c) When electrode cable connection is confirmed, use ECG
ECG-EEG
EEG signal generator to input
sine wave to the electrodes and check the output signals. If there is no signal then the
electrode cable may be broken inside. Hold on to the port with one hand and the
electrode with the other and pull slightly. If the cable is broken then it can be stretched
or pulled apart. This can be solved with some soldering.
d) If there is no signal generator, connect the lead cables with signals and the ones
without onto the patient’s head to see if the channel has signal. If signal is present then
the electrode is not placed properly, otherwise if there is no signal then there is need
to determine whether the cable is broken.
e) If all the above methods
thods indicate normal signal output, then it is the internal chip that
is faulty and needs to be returned to the company for servicing.
5. When running an EEG examination, waveforms of one or several channels are straight line
or there is significant interference
interfer in the signal output.
a) The quality of the electrode cables deteriorate due to wear and tear over a long time of
use, so normal waveform data cannot be collected. The electrode cables are
consumable materials with life cycle of one year in general. If tthis
his is the problem,
please consider purchasing for new electrode cables from the supplier.
b) Amplifier failure causes the waveform output to be straight line or have significant
interference. You may exchange the electrode cables of the channels with output issues
with the normal ones to confirm whether it is caused by the electrode cables or the
faulty in the amplifier. If amplifier failure is confirmed to be the cause, then please
return the amplifier to the supplier for servicing.
c) If waveform output is abn
abnormally
ormally large i.e. waveform can only be observed at
sensitivity more than 400uV/cm, check the lighting of the EEG amplifier to find out if
the Impedance Test mode is still on. When the Impedance Test Mode will have
