5. Start-up
1. Remove the battery cover from the base of the monitor by
undoing the catch.
2. Insert three AA 1.5 V alkaline batteries. Make absolutely
sure that you insert the batteries with the correct polarity as
marked.
3. Replace the battery cover carefully.
4. Attach the connecting cable to the electrodes (Fig. 1).
Note: The electrodes have a clip fastener to ensure easy
connection.
5. Insert the connecting cable connector into the socket at the
back of the device (Fig. 2).
6. Do not pull, twist or make any sharp kinks in the cables
(Fig. 3).
6. Programme overview
6.1 Basic information
The Digital TENS/EMS unit has a total 50 programmes:
• 20 TENS programmes
• 20 EMS programmes
• 10 MASSAGE programmes
With all programmes, you can set the length of application and (for each of the
four channels) pulse intensity separately.
Besides this, with TENS and EMS programmes 11-20, in order to physically
adapt the stimulation effect to the structure of the site of application, you can
also change both the pulse frequency, pulse width, ON and OFF times of the
individual cycles as well as the number of cycles.
Cycles are the different sequences making up the programmes. They automati-
cally run one after the other and increase the efficacy of stimulation on different
types of muscle fibre and combat premature muscle fatigue.
You will find the standard stimulation parameter settings and information on
placing the electrodes in the following programme charts for TENS, EMS and
MASSAGE.
