Page: 7 / 19

POWER INDICATOR LIGHT - A small light that is located on the center left of the
faceplate. The light is red and it will light up and stay that way for as long as the PowerStim
15R is on. When the unit is turned off, the red light will also be off.
STIMULTION INDICATOR LIGHT - This small light is located in the middle of all of
the "Channel Squares" on the middle right side of the faceplate. The light itself is red and
will blink on and off indicating when the PowerStim 15R is sending power to the channels.
While the light is on, the machine will be sending power to the channels thus stimulating
your muscles. When it is off it means the machine is resting and not sending power to the
channels.
FREQUENCY CONTROL KNOB - Located on the bottom left hand side and is labeled
"FREQUENCY" above it. It can be adjusted from 45 to 150 Hertz. The frequency of the
pulse is basically how fast the pulse is stimulating your muscles. In simple terms, think of
the electronic stimulation pulse as someone tapping on your muscles, the more you turn this
knob up the faster the tapping gets. Start on the lowest setting of 45Hz and slowly work your
way up.
RELAXATION CONTROL KNOB - This knob is located directly to the right of the
"frequency" knob and is labeled "REDUCE" above it. It can be adjusted between 3 and 45
seconds. What this knob does is give your muscles time to relax in-between contractions.
The more you turn it up, the longer the time gets between stimulation. The machine simply
takes a break and lets your muscles relax for an adjustable period before continuing the
contractions.
STIMULATION CONTROL KNOB - It is located directly to the right of the "reduce"
knob and is labeled "STIM." It can be adjusted from 1 to 100 seconds. What this knob
controls is the muscle contraction time. The more you turn it up, the longer of a time period
your muscles will be constantly stimulated for.
INTENSITY CONTROL KNOBS - There are 4x of these on the right side of the faceplate
