Problem: What types of physiological signals can I acquire using BioBench? Solution: With BioBench, you can acquire any signals that are represented with a voltage. For example, any type of biomedical transducer that outputs a voltage between -10 V and +10 V can be connected to your Data Acquisition (DAQ) board and read into BioBench. This means that you can acquire signals like ECG, EEG, Arterial Pressure, Left Ventricular Pressure, as well as any other type of physiological signal that can be acquired in some form as a voltage, either directly or through a sensor that converts the physiological signal into a voltage. This voltage value read in to BioBench can then be scaled and converted to the proper units based on the conversion information for given for the specific transducer used. More information on how to scale you data in BioBench can be found in Chapter 2 of the BioBench User Manual in the section entitled Configuring Your DAQ Hardware Channels. Since BioBench acquires signals as voltages, it is not limited to acquiring only biomedical signals. Therefore, you could even use BioBench to read the voltage of a battery or read a signal from a function generator. Related Links: BioBench Support Attachments:
