Frequently Asked Questions

What types of cables is the Olimex ECG-SCUP electrode compatible with?

The ECG-SCUP electrode is designed for universal compatibility with standard ECG cables and lead wires. It features an integrated nut that can be adjusted to securely fit cables of various diameters. It is specifically compatible with cables using 3.0mm and 4.0mm banana plugs, including the Olimex ECG-PRO-3-WAY-CABLE and SHIELD-EKG-EMG-PRO cables.

What is the benefit of the silver-chloride plating on the electrode contact?

The silver-chloride (Ag/AgCl) plating on the metal contact surface significantly reduces electrical noise and lowers the impedance at the electrode-skin interface. This is crucial for acquiring clean, stable, and high-fidelity ECG or EMG signals with minimal artifact, which is essential for accurate biopotential measurement in both clinical and prototyping applications.

How do I attach and use the suction cup electrode?

To use the electrode, first connect your ECG cable's banana plug to the electrode's post and secure it with the provided nut. Apply a conductive gel to the skin at the desired measurement site. Press the 24mm suction cup firmly against the gelled skin to create a seal. The suction holds the electrode in place, providing a stable, non-adhesive contact point for signal acquisition.
