ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Auto Shut-Off
-
To control the maximum treatment duration received by a patient,
an automatic shut-off feature is incorporated into the Multi-Mode Stimulator. There
are 20 and 30 minute time limits (depending on the selected preset) for each partic-
ular therapy duration. After the session timer reaches zero, the output amplitude of
minutes in an idle state, the device automatically shuts off to conserve battery power
and prevent inadvertent operation.
Pause/Resume
-
The Multi-Mode Stimulator includes a pause and resume fea-
ture that allows the user to suspend or “pause” treatment to allow for the readjust-
ment of electrodes or any external interruption such as a phone call. If the user wish-
es to pause treatment, simply press the PAUSE/OFF button once. The screen will
display “PAUSED”. When the user is ready to resume therapy, press the ENTER/ON
button once and the previous therapy will resume where it left off with the excep-
tion that the amplitude (intensity) setting has been reset to zero for safety reasons.
Increase the amplitude to the desired amplitude setting.
Amplitude Lockout
-
To prevent an accidental increase or decrease of the treat-
ment amplitude (intensity), the Multi-Mode Stimulator has an intra-therapy amplitude
lock feature. Sixty seconds after the last increase or decrease of the amplitude, the
device will go into amplitude lock mode. If the device is in Amplitude Lockout mode
and the user accidentally pushes the “+” or “-” buttons (increase or decrease ampli-
tude) the LCD screen will display a message indicating the amplitude is locked. If the
device is in Amplitude Lockout mode and the user wishes to increase or decrease
the amplitude, they can press the ENTER/ON button to remove the amplitude lock
and then increase or decrease the amplitude as desired.
Quick Start
-
If the Multi-Mode Stimulator is placed into Therapy Protocol Lock-
out mode the Quick Start feature will be activated. The Quick Start feature is the
fastest and easiest way to start a therapy. Ask your healthcare professional to place
the device into Therapy Protocol Lockout mode.
Multilingual
-
The Multi-Mode Stimulator’s user interface (the information shown
on the display) is available in three common languages: English, Spanish and
French. To change the language (with the device on) hold down the ENTER/ON
button and at the same time press the “+” button. Scroll through the languages and
