Please help, I'm not really that good when it comes to technology (I'm an accountant!).
Maybe the electrode reject is there because I need another adapter to connect to the electrode? Could anyone think of other reasons maybe (except the fact that I'm not mechanically inclinded:-)
Thanks,

Hmmm...hard to say without looking at it but a couple of possibilities come to mind.
First, I know I needed pin to banana connectors for mine (which is different than banana to pin connectors as those would not work for what I have since it is the electrodes that need the banana part)...but it could be that's what you already have and just typed it backwards. If not, though, it could be the problem. Pin to banana connectors were more difficult to find than banana to pin...at least when I was ordering them online.
Second, if you don't have BOTH converters for both electrodes that could also be the problem. If one isn't connected properly it could cause an error.
Third, make sure you have the right wires. I had to order the pin connector TENS wires because the ones that came with my unit were snap connectors and those won't work for tDCS treatments. You probably have the right ones but figured it was worth mentioning just in case.
And last, I sometime will get an electrode error if I turn it on and one of the electrodes is not against my skin properly (not enough contact with my skin). This happened a number of times when I first started until I got the hang of it. Maybe since you are not doing the actual treatments yet this could be the problem.
Not sure if that helps at all...but I gave it my best shot.
