Chapter 5: EXPLANATION OF TREATMENT MODES
TENS Modes:
B: Burst mode consists of seven pulses at 100 Hz pulse rate. Burst occurs twice every second.
C: Constant mode keeps pulse rate and width at a constant level.
M: Modulation mode modulates between the control setting and 60% below control setting.
EMS Modes:
S: Synchronous: Ch1 and Ch2 are on at the same time. Pulse active and inactive times are
controlled by Cycle on-time and Cycle off-time. Cycle on-time must by >= (Ramp time (up) + Ramp
time (down))
C: Continuous: Ch1 and Ch2 are continuous and pulse width / pulse rate is adjustable. On/Off/Ramp
can’t be changed.
A: Alternating: Ch1 and Ch2 alternate, while Ch1 is active, Ch2 is inactive and vice versa. Cycle on-
time must be > on-time.
Chapter 6: EXPLANATION OF PARAMETER CONTROLS
Pulse Width:
Wider pulse duration settings will deliver stronger stimulation for any given intensity setting. The
choice of which pulse duration to use is partially dependent upon the treatment mode selected.
Pulse Rate:
The pulse rate determines hertz or impulses per second.
ON Time (EMS function):
Adjustable from 1 – 30 seconds
OFF Time (EMS function):
Adjustable from 1 – 60 seconds
RAMP Time (EMS function):
Adjustable from 1 – 30 seconds
