Overview

The Adpt-Omnetics series is designed to interface KonteX X3R headstages with probes using a support 16-, 32-, and 64-channel Omnetics connector's probe. Available in three configurations— standard with screw-locking for secure attachment, no-lock for a reduced footprint, and vertical to provide additional clearance near the craniotomy—these adapters enable flexible integration into diverse experimental setups while maintaining a compact and reliable connection.

Ground & Reference Configuration

OM64 Adapter (SKU: Adpt-OM64)

  • Ground (G) and reference (R) signals are independent by default.
  • To short them together at the adapter, solder a short wire between the G and R pads.

OM64 V2 Adapter (SKU: Adpt-OM64v2)

Proper grounding and referencing are essential for high-quality signal acquisition. Always ensure that both ground and reference signals are securely connected. If either is left floating, significant noise may be introduced into the recordings.

  • ER: Solder pad for external reference (wire), this solder pad is connected fo signal R.

  • EG: Solder pad for external ground (wire), this solder pad is connected fo signal G.

  • ES: Solder pad for external shielding (wire), this solder pad is connected fo signal S.


    • By default, the headstage ground (G) and reference (R) are independent.
    - To connect reference and ground at the adapter, short JP1.
    - Ground (G) is sourced from the probe ground (PG). To use an external ground (EG) via the adapter, cut JP2 and solder a wire to the EG pad.
    - Reference (R) is sourced from the probe reference (PR). To use an external reference (ER) via the adapter, cut JP3 and solder a wire to the ER pad.
    - Shielding (S) is connected by default to ground (G). To use an external shielding signal (ES) via the adapter, cut JP4 and solder a wire to the ES pad.


    Configuring the Jumper Pad

    ① To connect the jumper, apply solder around JP1 until a solid solder bead forms.

    V2-14

    ② To disconnect, use a soldering iron and desoldering mesh to remove the solder bridging the jumper pad.

    If the jumper pas has a default short configuration, use a scalpel or precision blade to cleanly sever the trace.

    V2-15
    ③ After modification, clean the area thoroughly using isopropyl alcohol or flux remover to eliminate any residual material.
    ④ Always verify connectivity using a multimeter to ensure proper configuration.
