2.5 Intensity monitoring
During the development of the
HiToP
184
we have endeavored not only to offer you a High Tone Power
Therapy device of a new generation with regard to its efficiency and operatability, but also to set new
standards with regard to the patient’s safety.
Intensity increase at open circuits
, i.e. no patient is connected to the device:
If the initial voltage is increased at open circuit and no current is measured, the channel will be switched off
for the patient´s safety. An acoustic signal is given and a message will be displayed: Please check that the
electrodes and cables of channel N have good contact.
!!
Note!
If this message is displayed: Please check that the electrodes and cables of channel N have good
contact, you should check the contact of the electrodes and the cables, resp., prior to setting the
intensity anew.
