With the M-Series amplifier system, you can record 5, 16 and 32 channels of data using just three wires, with each additional headstage requiring only one extra wire. Many customers take advantage of this system’s minimal wiring by implementing a commutator for wire rotation management, thereby preventing the animal from tangling its tether and compromising the experiment. Used with a 9 wire cable and commutator, the multiplexing headstage and receiver can connect to over 200 independent channels of electrode connection.

Features:
Pre-wired recording assemblies with Omnetics connector in increments of 31 total inputs
Reduced wire count for superior integration with electrical commutators/slip ring assemblies
Just 3 wires for first 31 inputs and at minimum 1 wire for each additional 31 inputs
Customizable headstage wiring configurations (for M64 – M224 systems)
Options include tracking LEDs, microphone, temperature sensor, accelerometers
Standard 5 foot headstage cabling included with system
Compatible with 1Mohm or lower electrode impedances
Typical bandpass filtering per channel: .8 Hz to 7kHz
50kHz sampling rate per channel
Analog signal and TTL event inputs on base station (required internal DAQ)
Choice of electrode interface boards for various species and applications
800x system gain for optimal signal to noise ration (factory configurable)
Available with digital output to NeuroWare, analog output or both
Video LED tracking available with optional OptiMap software
NeuroWare and OptiMap datasets easily exported to MatLab, NeuroExplorer, or EDF
