Chapter 1: Introduction
About BioRadio™
The BioRadio™ Model 110 incorporates state-of-the-art wireless technology for
viewing and recording physiological signals such as EEG, ECG, EMG, EOG, and PSG
(polysomnograph) signals. This 8-channel general purpose signal monitor is the most
unobtrusive, flexible, and convenient way of measuring and transmitting physiological
signals. Subjects can now be untethered and are free to roam about a ward or home while
real time data is collected and displayed. Potential applications of this small lightweight
wireless monitor are in biomedical, physiological, and psychological research and clinical
studies involving human subjects as well as laboratory animals. Animals and small
children no longer need to be restrained for fear of being entangled in their wires.
The BioRadio Model 110 wireless physiological signal monitor consists of a
Transmitter, a Receiver Assembly (the receiver, receiver cable, and power supply),
accessories (Sensor cable, mounting band, electrolyte gel, screwdriver, batteries, and
Programmer & Test Pack), and a PC Operator Interface Software program.
The Transmitter collects signals from electrodes attached to the subject, performs
analog-to-digital conversion, encoding, formatting, and transmitting of all signals. The
signals are communicated using a 902-928 MHz radio transmitter. Over one hundred
transmitters can be used in the same area without interference with one another. The
Receiver Assembly receives the transmitted data packets, performs extensive error
detection and correction, and then sends the data through a Receiver cable to the PC
Operator interface where the data can be stored, monitored in real time, or analyzed at a
later time.
The BioRadio Capture program consists of several software components which
allow the user to acquire, store, view, and export physiological data as acquired by the
BioRadio Transmitter. The software provides a simple graphical interface for setting up
and controlling data acquisition. In addition, several functions are available to allow data
acquired from the BioRadio Transmitter to be used in other software applications, such
as Matlab®, Excel, etc. The BioRadio Configuration Wizard allows customization of the
number of input channels (1-8), ranges (micro– to millivolts), and sampling rate.
Configurations can be saved allowing the user to program the BioRadio for numerous
applications.
This device is not FDA approved to market and is available for non-medical use only unless it is to
be used in an IRB approved program.

Connecting the Transmitter
To test the Transmitter Unit, you have the option of connecting the Transmitter to the
Programmer/Test Pack to obtain a stable test signal of known (approximate) amplitude
and frequency; or to the Sensor Cable to obtain actual physiological signals. For quicker
setup we suggest using the Programmer/Test Pack first.
Inserting or Replacing the Batteries
The batteries need to be inserted into the Transmitter the first time you use your
BioRadio Transmitter.
1. Open the Transmitter case using the screwdriver provided in your BioRadio kit by
removing the screw on the back of the Transmitter.
2. Lift the battery cover off of the Transmitter.
3. Insert two AAA alkaline batteries, making sure poles are aligned properly.
4. Secure the cover by replacing the screw.
Using the Programmer & Test Pack
1. Plug the ribbon cable on the Programmer/Test Pack into the Transmitter’s 26-pin
port. The ribbon should click into the Transmitter port when connected properly.
2. Proceed to Chapter 3 to begin viewing and recording signals.

Using the Sensor Cable
1. Thoroughly clean the skin at the recording site using a mild abrasive (shave site if
necessary). Swab clean with alcohol and allow the skin to dry.
2. Fill each gold electrode cup with electrolyte gel before gluing to the scalp.
Electrolyte gel is not necessary if using snap-on electrodes.
3. Attach each gold electrode cup to a marked position on the scalp or body using either
tape or glue or a combination of both. Glue or snap reference electrodes, black wire
leads on a bony promus such as the mastoid portion of the temporal bones behind the
ears. (A universal differential channel can be converted to a single-ended channel
by plugging one of the differentials into the reference lead wire.)
4. Note the location on the scalp or body of each channel and its number which
corresponds with one of eight input channels. Input Channel Names can be
programmed later using the BioRadio Configuration Wizard.
5. After electrode/sensor placement is complete, connect the end of the Sensor Cable to
the Transmitter’s 26-pin port.
6. Wrap the adjustable velcro mounting band to a convenient location on the body, ie.,
the bicep of the arm, head, or waist.
7. Clip the Transmitter to the mounting band making sure the antenna is not bent. (The
Transmitter can also be mounted to a shirt collar, pocket, or other convenient
location.)
8. Proceed to Chapter 3 to begin viewing and recording signals.

Chapter 3: Recording Physiological Data
Introduction to Using BioRadio Capture Software
The BioRadio Wireless Physiological Monitor consists of several software components
which allow the user to acquire, store, view, and translate the analog signal data acquired
by the BioRadio Transmitter. The software provides a simple graphical interface for
setting up and controlling data acquisition. In addition, several functions are available to
allow data acquired from the BioRadio Transmitter to be used in other software
applications, such as Matlab®, Excel, etc.
This chapter serves as a brief tutorial designed to help you quickly begin using your
BioRadio. It covers the basic tasks of capturing test signals, changing the display screen,
recording the signals, and configuring the BioRadio. The BioRadio Capture Program is
factory set for an EEG configuration. Thus the Transmitter and Receiver are
programmed to use the BioRadio EEG configuration and will need to be reprogrammed
using the BioRadio Configuration Wizard for other applications. For more detailed help
on Commands refer to Chapter 5 : BioRadio Command Reference.

RF Link Status: The bar graph shows an approximate measure of the signal strength
from the BioRadio Transmitter. As this bar shrinks, the received signal is getting
weaker, and there is greater chance for losing data. The percentage displays the current
percent of received packets from the transmitter. If this number drops below 100%,
RF transmission is being impeded. When this happens move the Transmitter closer to
the Receiver or remove the number of obstacles between the Transmitter and Receiver.
COM Port: Displays the current serial port setting for communicating with the
BioRadio Receiver. If there is a problem with the communication, this appears
highlighted in red.
Output File: Displays the name of the current output file, when recording data to a

Starting Capture Mode
BioRadio Capture provides the ability to read and store physiological data as received
from the Receiver, which has been acquired and transmitted over the RF data link by the
Transmitter. When BioRadio Capture is first run, it begins in View Mode (for viewing
stored data files).
If you have properly connected the Receiver and the Transmitter is ON, you are ready to
View and Record either Test signals or physiological signals using the BioRadio™
Capture software.
To begin capturing real-time data, start Capture Mode by:
Clicking the Capture Mode button
on the Toolbar, or
Selecting Capture Mode from the File menu.
Upon entering Capture Mode, BioRadio Capture determines if the BioRadio Receiver on
the configured serial port is properly communicating. If the Receiver is connected and
properly configured, the physiological data will begin scrolling across the Display
Graph. Please note, there is a several second delay when the data will first start. You
are now ready to change the display, or save data to a file.
If the port is not properly configured, or if a problem is detected with the Receiver, an
error message is displayed. Refer to Chapter 6: Troubleshooting and Frequently
Asked Questions for more information.
Once Capture Mode has started, the Status Bar provides information on the status of the
RF link and data files. Notice the Status Bar will constantly update you on the Received
Signal Strength and the percentage of data packets being received.

Adding Filters to a Channel
BioRadio Capture allows you to filter the data during viewing (after it has been
transmitted or stored). A digital filter permits suppression of undesired signals while
maximizing the visibility of the signals of interest. This process is actually implemented
as separate high-pass and low-pass filters, both of whose cutoff frequencies are
programmable by the software. The high-pass filter rejects DC offsets and slowly
changing interference signals due to movement and other types of artifacts. The low-pass
filter rejects the very high frequency portion of the acquired signal which is usually
associated with unwanted and non-physiological noise. It might also be desirable to
“zoom in” a portion of the frequency spectrum while the data is acquired. For example,
transition of wakefulness to sleep is usually associated with changes in the alpha band of
EEG (8 to 12 Hz). Therefore, it might be desirable to band-pass filter the EEG in the
alpha band to monitor the onset of sleep.
The Filters dialog window allows you to apply filters to each input channel, and select
the global filter cutoff frequencies for the high or low-pass filter. The Filters dialog
window has two panes: Channels and Cutoffs.
Open the Filters dialog window by:
Clicking on the Filter setup button
on the Toolbar, or
Selecting Filters… from the View
menu.
The Channels pane allows you to apply
either a high-pass filter, low-pass filter, or
both to each individual channel. Place a
check mark to apply a High-pass or Lowpass filter for each corresponding channel.
High-pass filters let higher frequency
content through and attenuate lower
frequencies.
This can be useful for
eliminating drifting artifacts and DC
offsets from the data.
Low-pass filters let lower frequency content through and attenuate higher frequencies.
This can be useful for removing fast, transient responses from the data.

The Cutoffs pane allows you to select the exact cutoff frequency used for the High-pass
and Low-pass filters applied to each channel.
High-Pass Filter Cutoff: Selects the cutoff frequency (in Hz) of the high-pass filter.
(The filter is a 4th order Butterworth design, so this cutoff represents approximately a 3
dB attenuation of the input signal).
Low-Pass Filter Cutoff: Selects the cutoff frequency (in Hz) of the low-pass filter.
(The filter is a 4th order Butterworth design, so this cutoff represents approximately a 3
dB attenuation of the input signal).
Use the mouse to choose which global cutoff frequency you would like for the high or
low-pass filters you have added. Your choice of cutoff frequencies will vary depending
on the sampling frequency which is determined by the number of input channels selected
and the resolution.

Saving Data to a File
After you have made adjustments to the display graph and filters you can begin saving
the data being viewed. You can alter the display at any time while saving data, as it does
not affect the way the data is stored.
BioRadio Capture records the acquired data into a binary data file for off-line viewing
and analysis. Due to the large amount of data that can be collected, (e.g. during a typical
Sleep Study), the application can be configured to segment the data into multiple files of
fixed duration for smaller file sizes and manageability. See the Capture Options dialog
for more information about recording multiple files.
Record the data to a file by:
Clicking the Save Data to File
button on the Toolbar, or
Selecting Save Data to File... from the File menu.
The Save Data to File dialog window appears, allowing you to specify the name, format,
and location of the file to be recorded.

You can also choose the format of the file by selecting a format in the Save as type: box,
as either BioRadio Data Files (*.bd) or ASCII Data Files (*.dat):
BioRadio Data Files (*.bd):
BioRadio Data files are a compact binary
representation of saved physiological data, which can only be read by BioRadio
Capture. In most cases, you will want to store your data in BioRadio Data files, as
they are more compact and you will easily be able to view them later. If you save
data in BioRadio Data format, you can later export some or all channels to an ASCII
data file. See Exporting Data for more information on exporting data to ASCII
files.
ASCII Data Files (*.dat): ASCII data files are tab-delimited files containing all
physiological channels in floating-point ASCII format. Saving the data in ASCII
files allows you to directly use the data in other programs (such as Matlab®,
Excel®, etc.) but you will not be able to view the data once it has been saved in
ASCII format.
Notice that as you begin saving data, the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen displays

Changing the Display
Viewing saved data is similar to viewing the data in Capture Mode. All of the display
features and commands can be customized in the same way. Refer to Chapter 3,
‘Recording Physiological Data’ or Chapter 5, ‘BioRadio Command Reference’.
Searching through Data
When BioRadio Capture is in View Mode, a scroll bar appears at the bottom of the
Display Graph. This scroll bar represents the entire length of the data file, and the
scrollbar button represents the current view position of the data file.
You can click and drag on the scrollbar thumb to quickly move within the recorded data
file and search for particular epochs of data. When you move the thumb, a window pops
up indicating the file position (in hours, minutes, seconds, and hundredths of seconds).
Once you release the thumb, the view location will update to the position you have
selected. To view a continuous stream of data, click and hold either the forward or
backward arrows.
Printing Data
In View Mode, you can print the currently displayed (screen
view only) physiological data to any Windows printer. The
printed output is time/date stamped including the timescale
and sampling frequency of the data segment printed.
Click Print from the File menu
The grid will be printed unless it is hidden in the Display

Exporting Data
Exporting data translates a file to a non-BioRadio Data format that other programs can
import. The data can be exported to ASCII data in column format. In View Mode, you
can export all or part of the current data file to a space-delimited ASCII data file, which
can be read by programs such as Microsoft Excel, Matlab®, etc. You can select any of
the physiological channels to be exported to the ASCII data file, so that only data of
interest is exported. This flexibility greatly reduces unnecessary time spent analyzing
irrelevant data and saves file space. Therefore, you can export a BioRadio Data file in
ASCII format, and open it in Matlab or Excel and perform complex numeric computation
and data visualization using those programs’ tools on a particular segment of data.
Note that only the raw data (as acquired by the Transmitter) is exported. Any viewing
options (such viewing range, filters, etc.) are not reflected in the exported data file.
Begin exporting a file by:
Selecting Export data file from the File menu.
The Export Data File dialog window opens allowing you to select the time interval and
channels which will be exported to an ASCII data file from the saved physiological data
you are currently viewing. The Export Data dialog window contains two panes, Time
and Channels.

In the Time panel, you select the interval of time which will be exported to the ASCII
data file:
Export entire file: Exports the entire duration of the BioData file.
Export current view: Exports only the duration of the BioData file which is visible
in the Display Graph, based upon the settings for Timescale and the starting position.
Export interval: Exports the duration of the BioData file as set by the start and end
input boxes, in hours, minutes, and seconds (HH:MM:SS). You can use the up/down
arrows to change the start and end values, or you can type the times into the input
boxes.
In the Channels panel, you can select which of the input channels will be exported to the
ASCII data file. Only channels with a check mark will be written to the ASCII data file.
The channels will be written in the order they are displayed in this list.
Once you have selected the time
interval and channels to be
exported, click the Export...
button to begin exporting the data
file. You will then see the Export
File dialog window, where you
enter a filename for the ASCII
data file. Once you click Save, a
progress dialog will appear
displaying the export progress.
Note that, for long BioData files,
this may take several seconds to
complete.

time length of the files to range from 1 to 100 minutes in length. BioRadio records a file
size of approximately 26 KB/min/channel.
Display Resolution:
Specifies the resolution for
displaying real-time data.
The
default setting is Low, which causes BioRadio Capture to display the data at a coarser
resolution, but at a faster update rate. If your computer is higher performance, you can
set this to Medium or High. However, if the data appears "choppy" in real-time, you
should set this to Low.
