The model DR-24
EEG receiver consists of a computer system equipped with high-speed
modem and proprietary EEG processing interface board to decode the
signal from the DT-24 transmitter. Also included is a
24-channel digital-to-analog conversion module to interface the
receiver output to your laboratory EEG recording system.
The DR-24 EEG receiving computer connects
to a standard voice grade telephone line. The output from the
computer is sent to a D-to-A interface module. The output from
the interface is in the form of 24 individual leads (plus a ground
lead) which connect directly into the jackbox of your existing EEG
system. The output from these leads is a microvolt level
analog EEG signal. Your laboratory EEG system will think that
it is directly connected to a patient in your laboratory. You will
operate your EEG system in the same way as you would for a regular
in-house EEG procedure. The only difference being that you
patient could just as easily be in the next room, or clear across
the country.
Through the use of patented processing and buffering schemes,
high quality analog EEG signal is continuously streamed to your
laboratory EEG system in near real-time. To accommodate data
errors and line fluctuations some level of buffering is
required. This results in a typical lag time on the order of
several seconds. However, the received EEG is of exceptional
quality and totally free of the artifacts which are common in analog
EEG transmission systems.
