Keep
your Mindset calibrated
The
Mindset Calibrator injects a very precise16 Hertz, 50
microvolt signal simultaneously into
all 16 channels of your Mindset.
The MindMeld
software reads this signal and calibrates itself to the
Mindset hardware.
Simple
calibration procedure:
Simply
load the special calibration scheme into your MindMeld
software, select "Calibrate" from the Special Menu
and start the scheme. Calibration is automatic!
MINDSET
MS-1000 Calibrator
Why
calibrate? In any
piece of electronic equipment here
are component tolerances which affect the behavior
of an electronic circuit, causing it to vary from ideal
performance. For
example, the manufacturer of a specific component rates that
component at a certain value plus or minus 5%.
Also, individual electronic components can
"drift" a bit as they age.
These small errors are cumulative as
a signal makes its way through the circuit.
Although
Mindset uses precision components, these component tolerance
and aging issues can cause the amplifiers to vary by about 10%
from the norm.
To
compensate for these tolerances, the Mindset Calibrator injects
a very precise 16 Hertz, 50 micro-volt signal into all 16
amplifiers. The
MindMeld software reads the output from the amplifiers
and calculates a correction factor (a scaler) to bring the
amplifiers to the norm. These
scalers are saved in the Windows
System Registry. They
may then be used by selecting "Use Calibration Scalers"
from the Special menu in both the MindMeld Live Data Capture
and MindMeld Analysis Functions programs.
