1) Laser and Sound Cueing Module — Operating the Unit
The module primarily helps those with Parkinson’s freezing but
also helps anyone with an irregular gait pattern. The Laser and
Sound Cueing Module can help you get started, normalize your
walking, and increase your stride.
To activate the Laser Cueing function, press the red button on
the unit attached to the right handlebar. You should hear a series
of clicks and see the red power indicator light blinking. A bright
red laser line will appear on the floor to guide your steps.
In this mode, without
Sound Cueing acti-
vated, the upper black
button adjusts the time
period before auto-
matic laser shutoff to
conserve
battery
power, and the lower
black button adjusts
the clicking volume.
Pressing the upper
button extends the
shutoff period from 4 to 28 minutes in increments of 4 minutes;
each click that sounds after pressing the button indicates 4 min-
utes of operating time in effect (from 1 to 7 clicks). Pressing the
lower button lowers the click volume in steps to the softest set-
ting, then recycling to the loudest setting.
To activate Sound Cueing, press and hold the top black button
in for a few seconds until you hear a steady clicking. In this
mode, the two black buttons increase or decrease the cadence
(speed) with each brief press. The cadence varies from 59 to 130
beats per minute over 15 increments.
The Sound Cueing only operates while the Laser Cueing is on.
