4.2 MEA2100 Interface Board
The MEA2100-System consists of two main devices: The Interface board with integrated signal
processor, and a headstage equipped with amplifiers, an integrated stimulator and analog-to-
digital converter ADC.
Front Panel
Two Status LEDs
The status LEDs indicate the link status of headstage 1 and / or headstage 2. They light up
when one or both USB headstages are connected to the interface board via eSATAp cable.
Auxiliary Channels
Two reserve auxiliary channels are available for future use. They have no function at the moment.
Digital IN / OUT
A Digital IN / OUT for 16 digital in- and output bits is available (68-pin MCS standard connector)
on the rear panel of the interface board. On the front panel four digital IN and four digital OUT
connectors bits are also accessible via Lemo connector DIG IN bit 0 to bit 3 and DIG OUT bit 0
to bit 3. If access to more bits of the DIG IN / OUT channel is required, it is necessary to connect
a Di/o board with a 68-pin standard cable. This Di/o board is available as optional accessory.
Power LED
The power LED near to the MCS logo on the front panel of the interface board should light up
when the MEA2100-System is "ON", and the device is connected to the power line. If not, please
check the power source and cabling.
