Page 6: Calibration Of The Force Transducer
2.2 Calibration of the force transducer As a part of the general maintenance of the Muscle Strip Myograph, DMT recommends that the Muscle Strip Myograph is force calibrated at least once a month. The Muscle Strip Myograph should also be force calibrated every time it has been moved. Al- though lab benches are all supposedly perfectly horizontal, small differences in lab bench pitch can affect the calibration of the system. -

3.2.2 Force Transducer Replacement If the force transducer breaks and needs to be replaced, follow this step-by-step replacement procedure carefully: 1. Remove the clamp from the transducer pin coming out of the transducer house. 2. Disconnect the Muscle Strip Myograph from the Multi Interface. 3. -
Page 12: Maintenance Of The Micropositioner
3.3 Maintenance of the micropositioner Check the micropositioner for grease at least ONCE A WEEK. There are 3 main parts that will need to be greased on the mi- cropositioner, those parts being the micropositioner screw thread and the 2 slide bars to the left and right of the micropositioner screw thread.
