FlexMEA36
Electrode Layout
The numbers in the electrodes are the recording channel numbers that refer to the channel numbers in the
MC_Rack program. Please make sure that you have selected “Configuration” in the “Channel Layout” under
“Data Source Setup” with a total number of 64 channels. Deselect the check box “Digital input channel” if you
do not need it, otherwise it could be that one recording channel is missing! In “Amplifier”, please choose
FA32I/S or FA64I/S and in “MEA” FlexMEA36. In Layout tab of the display, please click ”Default Map”.
The letter digit code below is the electrode identifier and refers to the position of the electrode in the grid.
The MC_Rack channel map is constructed by looking on the back side of the electrodes, because the FlexMEA
electrodes are placed on the preparation upside down!
If you use more than one MPA32I-Flex and a MEA64-System, the signal collector SC2x32 leads the output
channels of the second amplifier to channel number 33 to 64. Please see datasheet SC2x32 for details.
The side with the writing NMI is the correct side with the contact pads and electrodes. It might be a bit confusing
that the pads look stronger from the wrong side, but if you hold the FlexMEA into the light, you see that the pads
have a 3-dimensional appearance only from the correct side.
Warning: The device may only be used together with the MPA32I (-Flex)
from Multi Channel Systems MCS GmbH, and only for the specified purpose.
Damage of the device and even injuries can result from improper use.
