Posted on by BrainTain Support
The PhysioCom 2 device comes with a the PhysioCom 2 amplifier, 5 snap-in sensor cables.
The sensor cables are wrapped in 2 separate bundles. 

Channel 1 contains 3 cables: red for active, black for reference and green for the Ground sensor.
Channel 2 contains 2 cables: white for Channel 2 active, Brown for reference and a jumper cable for linking the black and brown reference cables together.
The PhysioCom 2 device ports are labeled +A- (red and black), +B- (red and black), GRD and (C).  The red "A+" port is the Active port for Channel 1 and the black "A-" port is the reference port for Channel 1.

The rec "B+" port is the Active port for Channel 2 and the black "B-" port is the reference port for Channel 2.  The "GRD" port is the shared Ground connection for Channel 1 and Channel 2 and the "(C)" port is unused by SmartMind.  A labeled diagram is found below showing the port names and locations.
