Tool/software:
Hi There,
I would like to ask about the possibility of modifying the BIAS/DRL configuration registers on the ADS1299 during active data acquisition. Specifically, we aim to detect when an electrode becomes disconnected—using the lead-off detection feature—and then automatically update the corresponding BIAS_SENSP or BIAS_SENSN register to exclude that electrode from the DRL feedback loop.
Our objective is to prevent a disconnected (floating) electrode from injecting noise into the DRL path, which could affect the signal integrity of the remaining, properly connected channels.
Could you please confirm whether modifying the BIAS registers on-the-fly during acquisition is supported and stable? Additionally, are there any precautions or recommended procedures (e.g., pausing data streaming) that we should follow to avoid unintended side effects?
Thank you in advance for your support.
Moises.
