My goal is to record EEG during anesthesia and analyse the row signal of EEG. So I am not considering devices using ready-made algorithms like BIS or others. 4-channel EEG will be enough, the main point is to obtain row signal! If there is no way to plug such a device an our monitor, we will probably go for a full classic EEG.
The easiest solution will be to bring whatever EEG recording device you have in to the operating theatre. I doubt if it is possible to record the raw EEG from the BIS module in a GE monitor but even if it is, it would involve a lot of wasted time getting it working and you will not get four channels.
Tim is correct. With a standalone BIS monitor, you can get two (but not four) channels, and these channels will be from the same side of the front of the head. To download via the BIS monitor you have to go into the settings and switch from ASCII to binary output, to enable downloading of the raw EEG via the RS232 port.
I too doubt that this is possible with a BIS module for use in other monitoring systems.
Thank you for your answer. It seems that GE has developped a 4-channel EEG that we could add on our monitor. I will try to test them and keep you posted!

Four years later, am I still on time to answer your question?
If you use the Masimo Root monitor with Sedline (https://www.masimo.com/products/continuous/root/root-sedline/), you will have 4 EEG channels and raw EEG easily downloadable directly from the monitor to an USB stick as EDF format which maybe analyzed for example with Polyman software (https://sites.google.com/view/diegoalvarezestevez/projects/polyman)
