The MIE
8-channel data logger has been designed to accommodate a range of
plug-in transducers including EMG pre-amplifiers,
electrogoniometers, accelerometers and a range of other devices
including bespoke strain gauge devices to measure loads and forces
to your own requirements.
The recorders are small, lightweight and can be unobtrusively
attached to the body. Physiological data can be recorded over long
periods of time either in the laboratory or in the field whilst
performing everyday activities.
Active and passive sensors can be monitored at high sampling rates
and over long periods of time. For example, a trial using an
accelerometer transducer sampling at 12 bit resolution at 4000Hz
can last 2 hours, whereas a trial monitoring enveloped EMG using a
sampling rate of 10Hz can last nearly 20 days. |

Features
The basic system comes complete with 8 sub-miniature no-noise EMG
pre-amplifiers, 8-channel data logger, opto-isolated serial/USB
interface cable, flash memory card, memory card reader for PC and
the Windows version of our leading
Myo-Dat data
collection and analysis software package.
Using the opto-isolated cable with the
Myo-Dat software
allows you to view the live data during set-up to ensure that all
the sensors are functioning correctly, prior to data collection.
Data can then be collected either “on-line” or “off-line” as
required. |
 |
Data is stored on the flash memory
card, which can later be read via the card reader provided. This
ensures rapid data streaming to your hard disk and can be
immediately and seamlessly displayed within
Myo-Dat for immediate
analysis. Larger or additional memory cards can also be used.
The Data Logger runs from a single AA battery and lasts up to 24
hours continual use depending on the transducers used. All
channels provide an excitation potential to power the transducers
so that no external power supply is required. The data logger
features the highest quality self latching connectors for secure
and robust attachment of the sensors. |
 |
|
Due to the very small size of the
Data Logger, “Y” connectors are provided to allow 2 transducers to
be connected to a single input. This automatically increases the
capacity of the Data Logger from
4-inputs to 8-inputs, thus giving the instrument much greater
flexibility. |
 |
Modes of operation
In “Manual Mode” data recording is initiated by the ON/OFF
control button on the front panel. The data is kept in the
non-volatile memory card and remains valid even if the battery is
removed. Time and date information is stored at the starting and
stopping times of each recording session.
In “Scheduled Mode” the Data Logger starts and stops
automatically at pre-defined time intervals. Operation time can
thus be greatly extended. |
Accessories
MIE also produces customised accessories to suit particular
applications. These include input preamplifier modules for the
amplification of weak biopotential signals, such as EMG and ECG,
near the signal source. Other transducers include
electrogoniometers to measure joint angles, foot switch encoders
to measure heel and toe contact times, accelerometers and strain
gauge amplifiers. MIE also design and manufacture bespoke
transducers. |
