LAB 1: intro

Question 1

What is on the X axis on the graphical user interface? what is on the y axis?

Answer 1

X axis: time
Y axis: measured parameter (V, grams, rate, ect…)

Question 2

What happens when you increase the duration of the pulse? What happens when you increase the voltage?

Answer 2

The duration increase corresponds with a period increase. The voltage increase corresponds with an amplitude increase

Question 3

What happens when you increase the delay of the stimulator? what about the frequency?

Answer 3

Delay increase increases the time of onset of the wave. the frequency increases the frequency of the stimulus.

Question 4

What does the mean tool do?

Answer 4

Gives the overall average of recorded values in the highlighted range

Question 5

What does the mean tool do?

Answer 5

Gives the overall average of recorded values in the highlighted range

Question 6

What does the time tool do? How about delta T?

Answer 6

It gives the exact time of a point. Delta T gives the difference between times in a highlighted range.

Question 7

How do you get the heart rate (freq or BPM) for multiple beats in the GUI?

Answer 7

Highlight the number of waveforms you want, and multiply the given rate output by the number of waves highlighted.

Question 8

What is the difference between P-P and detla?

Answer 8

P-P: gives difference between lowest and highest points
delta: gives the difference between the Y values of the highlighted range
