3.1  Professional Sensors 
3.1.1  Electromyography (EMG) 
Figure 13: EMG sensor. 
Our  low-noise  ECG local  differential  triode configuration  enables  fast application  and 
unobtrusive  data  acquisition  (although  custom  electrode  cable  configurations  are 
available). The state-of-the-art design of the analog frontend on this sensor is specifically 
targeted at analyzing minutiae in the data. Together with the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) 
plugin  on our  OpenSignals software,  one can  easily record  and extract  meaningful 
information. 
Electrode cables & sleeves 
The electrode cables of this sensor can be connected to electrodes with integrated stud 
connectors. The colored plastic sleeves on each electrode cable indicate which electrode 
must be connected to the positive or negative electrode cable (see Table 2).

How to connect your sensor to your biosignalsplux 
EMG sensors can be connected to any of the available analog inputs of your biosignalsplux 
device (see 2.3.2 Analog Inputs). 
This EMG  sensor has no  built-in reference electrode.  We recommend connecting  a 
reference electrode  the  reference  input of your device (see  2.3.3  Reference)  which  can
