Alternating Sides Repetition Order: When “Test Alt” mode is displayed, the repeti-
tions alternate between right and left side as follows:
TEST 1 REP 1 RIGHT
TEST 1 REP 1 LEFT
TEST 1 REP 2 RIGHT
TEST 1 REP 2 LEFT
TEST 2 REP 1 RIGHT
TEST 2 REP 1 LEFT . . . .etc .
This method can be used if submaximal effort is indicated . By mixing up the left
and right side routine, the subject may have a more difficult time repeating the
results on each side as indicated by the coefficient of variation .
Testing Methods
The Commander console can store up to 40 tests in memory complete with data
for all repetitions and statistics . In order to easily record multiple tests the
Commander uses Automatic Indexing™ . This method automatically indexes the dis-
play to the next test in the series without requiring you to press any buttons . For
example, after completion of all right and left side repetitions of test 1, the display
indexes to TEST 2 REP 1 RIGHT .
NOTE: After completing a test, Commander prevents inadvertent deletion of tests
previously stored in memory by indexing to the next test not completed . For
example, if test 2 was completed previously, after test 1 is completed Commander
will skip test 2 and index to test 3 .
Sequential Testing Method
This method always begins with test 1 using Automatic Indexing™ to proceed from
test 1 to test 2, etc . Mark the muscle groups on the exam worksheet with the cor-
responding test numbers from the display .
For example, a muscle testing exam is com-
pleted in the following order: elbow flexion,
elbow extension and shoulder abduction .
Before starting the exam, “1” is placed on
the elbow flexion line of the worksheet, “2”
on elbow extension and “3” on shoulder
abduction . Then either during the test or
after, test data for the test number on the
Commander unit is recorded on correspond-
ing line of the worksheet . This method facili-
tates documentation during exams by allow-
ing you or staff to complete the worksheet
after the exam is finished .
In this example, test 2 would
correspond to elbow extension on
the worksheet.
