First Use of Cardio2D after Installation
Double-click the Cardio2D program icon. The "Data Acquisition Settings" dialog appears.
You have to select the data acquisition device, if more than one data acquisition is available.
Select the "Sample Rate", the "Range" (when using the MC_Card only), and the gain as an
intrinsic property of the connected amplifier. The "Resolution", the number of "Channels" and
the "Driver Version" are displayed. Select the type of MEA or FlexMEA. Please save these entries
with the command "Save Defaults". Otherwise the dialog will appear each time you want to start
Cardio2D. It is possible to change the default settings or to save several default files if you work
with different configuration. The dialog is also available in the "Settings" menu in "Data
Acquisition".
You will be asked for a path to put the log and data files. The program will create subfolders for
each of these file types. It is advisable to put all three subfolders in a common Cardio2D directory.
These settings can be changed later, please see main menu "Settings", "File Location".
In case you have to reinstall the software, you will be asked for the file locations again.
Note: It is recommended to save the settings in the "Data Acquisition Settings" dialog as default.
This way you do not have to type them in again, when restarting Cardio2D.
