FlexMEA72

ADPT-FM-72: The adapter is equipped with the connectors for the MPA32Is on one side and the connectors
for the FlexMEA72 on the other side.

MPA32I: The side with no screws is considered to be the top side of the MPA32I. The MPA32Is have to be
connected with their top sides facing to each other (to the inner part of the adapter) and the bottom sides
facing outwards.

FlexMEA72: On the FlexMEA72 the side with the writing “NMI” is the side with contact pads and electrodes.
This side is optically golden shimmery and the letters “NMI” are readable.

Plastic Spacer: The spacer between FlexMEA72 and drawers ensures the contact from the printed circuit
board of the adapter and the contact pads.

Warning: The adapter ADPT-FM-72 may only be used together with a FlexMEA72 and
with MPA32I from Multi Channel Systems MCS GmbH, and only for the specific purpose.
Damage of the device and even injuries can result from improper use.
