Analog Data Output Module

Analog Data Output Module

The STARR-Link Analog Output Module provides 0-5 Volt analog outputs of the parameters measured by the MouseOx® Plus. It serves as an interface between the MouseOx® Plus and other data acquisition hardware.

  • Output of MouseOx® Plus Data
  • Voltage Range of 0 to 5
  • Up to 8 Simultaneous Data Channels
  • No Calibration Required

The STARR-Link is an Analog Data Output Module for the MouseOx Plus that converts the calculated parameters to an analog voltage output. The output voltage range is from 0 to 5 volts.

STARR-Link Analog Output Module Parameters

  • Arterial Oxygen Saturation – Percent oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin
  • Heart Rate – Pulse rate
  • Breath Rate – Derived from work of breathing affect on plethysmograph signal
  • Pulse Distension – Magnitude of distention of arterial blood vessels at the measurement site due to the cardiac output pulse (analogous to perfusion index)
  • Breath Distension – Magnitude of distention of the arterial blood vessels at the measurement site due to intra-thoracic pressure associated with breathing.
  • Temperature – From MouseOx® Plus temperature probe if present
  • Activity – Binary indicator of presence/absence of subject movement – Conscious Software option.
  • Subject Number – For use with Multiplexer

Device Requirements

The STARR-Link has the following use and interface requirements:

  • Hardware – You must have a functioning STARR Life Sciences® MouseOx® Plus device.
  • Software – The STARR-Link does not require special software since all drivers and controllers are contained within the MouseOx® Plus software.
  • Computer Hardware – Your computer must have at least one 2.0 USB port to accommodate the STARR-Link™.
  • Electrical Requirements – Your external recording device must have high-impedance inputs.
