performed on the TPM, the rate of battery depletion will change so

Turning the Personal Monitor ON/OFF
To power on the device, hold the power button on the upper-left cor-
ner of the TPM for approximately 3s, until the screen illuminates.
There are three methods by which the device can be shut down:
1. Hold the power button on upper-left corner of the TPM for ap-
proximately 3 seconds or until the screen goes dark.
2. Allow the “Power down time” as set in the device settings to
elapse. The device will only automatically shut down if it is not con-

3. In the hardware pane of the EMGworks protocol editor, set the
TPM to power down when EMGworks closes. The device will be
turned off when exiting EMGworks.

AC adapter in order to operate.
