xtr EEG16 (XTELC046GM05)

The EEG multi-electrode patch enables recordings of frontal EEG, EOG, and temporal EEG simultaneously. Press here to watch the tutorial video.

The patch has 4 segments (marked with numbers from 1-4), each segment is attached to the skin separately.

Step 1 - Attach the forehead segment

1. Peel off the protective layer marked with #1.
2. While the teardrop shape is exactly between the eyebrows, attach the EEG electrodes on the forehead, and the GND electrode to the bony area of the nose. Make sure the patch is not attached on the eyebrows. Press it firmly against the skin.
3. In the next steps, if there is a leftover area in the strips between patch parts you can fold it.

Step 2 - Attach the ear segment

1. Peel off the protective layer marked with #2, the peeling starts above the ear.
2. Move the hair behind your ear and attach the patch behind the ear and the lower round electrode near the earlobe (the preauricular zone). Press it firmly against the skin. Repeat this step for the other side.

Step 3 - Attach the eye segment

1. Peel off the protective layer marked with #3.
2. Attach the EOG electrodes at a finger's width diagonally downward from the outer corner of the eye, and then adhere the EEG electrode near the ear (the preauricular zone). Repeat this step for the other side. Press the patch firmly against the skin.

Step 4 - Removing the support layers

Using the dedicated wavy white tabs, remove the 3 sections of the transparent layer with one hand: toward the forehead, towards the ear and towards the eye. With your other hand, secure the attachment of the electrodes. Repeat for the other side.

NOTE: Peel the forehead part from both sides simultaneously towards the nose.

Verify that the electrodes are connected: press the patch firmly on your skin using your hands and verify all electrodes and strips are well connected.

Step 5 - Attaching the device

1. Using the tab, peel off the white rectangle layer from the middle of the forehead.
2. Attach the connector of the patch to the device’s socket at the front of the device.
3. Attach the device to the patch on top of the exposed adhesive. Verify the LED light of the device is still green.
