Once the therapy has ended, the screen changes back to the “Initial settings” display.
Note: When no laser application is taking place, the unit turns “OFF” automatically if it is not operated for a period
of >= 10 minutes (AUTO OFF).
Searching for acupuncture points
Acupuncture points exhibit a different electronic response compared to the immediately adjacent areas of skin which
appear visibly identical. These points can be detected as zones with an increased skin conductivity (equivalent to
a reduced electric resistance of skin).
This fact is the basis when working with a point searching unit. To activate the point searching device you need to
change into the modus M. From the starting position press the key SET twice. Now you can change the modus
with keys + or -. The following modus are possible:
• 0 = point searching off, M = manual point searching, A = automatic pointsearching
• Modus M (manual point searching)
By touching one of the metallic contact surfaces and simultaneously tou-
ching the skin of the patient the point searching is active. (See picture) The
skin conductance is displayed both as a bar image and as a digital value
(0-99). An acustic signal shows if the value of the skin’s conductance is
getting higher or lower.
Gently press the 3B LASER perpendicularly onto the skin in the vicinity of
the expected acupuncture point. You can search for acupuncture points
by moving the 3B LASER over the skin.
Skin zones exist where the conductivity value is below the measuring range
(display indicates a value of 0 ). In this case you must press the 3B LASER
more firmly onto the skin or slightly moisten the area.
In the modus M (manual point searching) you can activate the 3B LASER by pressing the key LASER key at the highest
measured value.
Modus A (automatic point searching)
If you stay in modus M (manual point searching) and you briefly press the SET key you can store the actual skin
conductance. The stored value is shown on the display as a digital value and as a hatched bar. The point searching
modus in the display changes to A. The automatic laser function has now been activated.
While point searching there is always a continuous comparison between the actual skin conductivity and the stored
value. If you find a point with a higher conductivity as the stored value then this is seen in the bar-display. If the
3B®-LASER is not moved, and the actual measured value is stable for 2 seconds and greater than the stored value,
the 3B LASER automatically switches on. Now the display indicates the therapy time and the treatment dose.
Measurement
For example, if you store the skin’s conductivity value at point A1 and then move the 3B LASER in the direction of
A2, the displayed conductivity values will be greater than 60 in this example.
If you carry out the measurement at A2, conductivity values will only be displayed where the compared value is
greater than 80. Any points below 80 will not be displayed, etc.
