PERATING THE
Safety cover: The controls for pulse width, pulse frequency, mo-
de selection and modulation selection are protected by a safety co-
ver. To open cover A 11, grip the upper end by the sides and lift
open the cover.
Intensity: The intensity regulators 2 are to be found on the upper
side of the unit and are used to set the intensity of stimulation. They
are also used to switch the unit on and off.
Mode: The mode selector 5 is used to set the type of treatment.
The three available modes are: burst stimulation [Burst] (B), conti-
nuous stimulation [Continuous] (C) and modulated stimulation [Mo-
dulated] (M).
Pulse width (µs): The control knob 4 regulates the pulse width
(= the duration of individual impulses) for both channels.
Pulse frequency (Hz): The pulse frequency knob 6 regulates
the number of pulses per second for both channels.
Timer: With the aid of the timer control 7, you can set the duration

of TENS treatment. There are three possible settings: 15, 30 minutes
and C (continuous). Use the switch to select the desired setting.
Resetting the timer: To restart treatment or reset the timer, simp-
ly switch the intensity regulator 2 into the OFF position, then back
to the ON position.
Mode functions: Burst mode (B) triggers two individual bursts
per second. In this mode, the pulse frequency is set at 100Hz per
second, while the pulse width is adjustable. In continuous stimulati-
on mode (C), impulses are transmitted continuously at the selected
settings for intensity, pulse frequency and pulse width. In modulati-
on mode (M), the pulse width set by the user is reduced by 60%.
This lower pulse width is maintained for 2 seconds before retur-
ning to the original user setting, which is then maintained for 3.5
seconds. The cycle is then repeated. Intensity and pulse frequency
are adjustable by the user.
