Data Collection Procedures and Cleaning
The University of York Psychology Department’s EEG amplifiers were purchased from ANT Neuro (http://www.ant-neuro.com/) and work with the ANT Neuro WaveGuard caps (http://www.ant-neuro.com/products/waveguard). When using the WaveGuard caps, you need to first find the appropriate cap size for the participant’s head, and then place at least one electrode (usually FPz or Cz) in the correct location.
...
The ASA software is already installed on the recording PCs that accompany each amplifier. The software is used for recording EEG data. For updates to the ASA software, check http://www.ant-neuro.com/products/asa/download-asa.
ASA can only be accessed from PCs that have the ASA dongle (i.e. the recording PCs). Although, a free trial is available from the website (follow the link above).
If you have any problems with ASA, feel free to use their support forum and help pages: http://ant.ipbhost.com/index.php. Note that you will have to register (free) and log in to access the ASA support pages.
