OPERATION
Russian
The Russian current is a 2,500 Hz sinusoidal carrier wave, interrupted to create pulse trains or "bursts." The number of bursts per
second is determined by the burst frequency and the length of the bursts is determined by the duty cycle.
Mode
provides three methods of treatment including Single channel application, Reciprocal
application where stimulation alternates between agonists and antagonists and Co-Contract
where the timing of stimulation can be coordinated through two channels to simultaneously
co-contract agonist and antagonist or differing sections of a larger muscle group.
Cycle Time
parameter controls the on/off cycle time of the current. There are 7 available
options: 5/5, 10/10, 10/20, 4/12, 10/30, 10/50 (default) and Continuous.
The
Burst Frequency
is the number of bursts per second (bps) and the available range is
20 bps to 100 bps.
Ramp
controls the amount of time required to bring the stimulation up to the selected
amplitude. When you press the Ramp button it will toggle between .5 seconds,
1 second, 2 seconds (default) and 5 seconds.
Duty Cycle
is the ratio of on time to total time of the burst and is expressed as a percentage.
The options are 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% (default).
