ABR Testing with the RZ6 and Medusa4Z
ABRs - from Set-up to Data Collection
This guide is primarily intended for researchers who are new to collecting ABRs using a TDT
RZ6 system with Medusa4Z preampli
fi
er and BioSigRZ software. It brings together targeted
information from our software and hardware manuals and goes beyond product speci

c
details to answer common questions, including subject or test area considerations that might
affect your testing. The information provided is based on our knowledge of the TDT system
and years of experience helping our users. It is not intended to favor or dictate any particular
experimental protocols, methods, or research goals.
We leave the science up to you, but we are here to support you on your way to successful
experiment completion.
