Product Number: H24-61

The H24-61 Ceiling Mount Activity Monitor utilizes infrared technology for precise tracking of your test subjects. This monitor readily mounts on top of all of our test cages using a standardized ceiling hole array. The wide field of view will detect animals while rearing or leaning on a wall. It can see both rats and mice in this posture and senses movement at any elevation in the cage. An optional drop-ceiling kit is available (H24-61-MC) for increasing the sensitivity on smaller or mouse-sized cages. For flexibility in defining the response for program control and data acquisition purposes, a selector switch permits the user to choose either of two output modes. You may choose movement units (brief pulses representing the minimum resolution of detection), or movement episodes (a continuous output for the entire duration that movement units occur with inter-event intervals of less than 400 milliseconds).
