Guide the connection cable plugs into the socket on the top

of the device (Fig. 3).

Do not pull, twist or make any sharp kinks in the cables

(Fig. 4).



Please note that when the battery is replaced or removed,

all settings are restored to the factory default settings.

6. Programme overview

6.1 Basic information

The Digital EMS/TENS unit has a total 50 programmes:

•

10 TENS programmes

•

30 EMS programmes

•

10 MASSAGE programmes

In all programs you can set the impulse intensity of both channels individually.

You can also set various parameters in the TENS programs 8 –10 and the EMS

programs 28 – 30 to adjust the stimulating effect to the application area.

6.2 Information on placing the electrodes

For the desired success of any stimulation application, it is important that elec-

trodes are placed sensibly.

We advise you to coordinate with your doctor regarding the best electrode posi-

tions for your intended field of application.

The electrode positions suggested inside the cover (Figs. 1– 28) serve as a

guide. The following applies when choosing electrode positions:

Electrode distance

The greater the electrode distance which is selected, the greater will be the

volume of tissue that is stimulated. This applies to the area and the depth of

the tissue volume. At the same time, however, the strength of tissue stimulation

decreases as the electrode distance becomes greater, which means that, if a

greater electrode distance is chosen, a greater volume is stimulated, but stimu-

lation is weaker. To increase stimulation, pulse intensity must then be increased.

The following guideline holds when selecting electrode distances:

•

most reasonable distance: approx. 5 –15 cm,

•

below 5 cm, it is mainly surface structures which are strongly stimulated,

•

over 15 cm, large-area and deep structures are stimulated very weakly.

Electrode relationship to muscle fibre orientation

Choice of current flow direction must be adapted to the mus-

cle fibre orientation according to the desired muscle layer. If

surface muscles are to be reached, the electrodes must be

placed parallel to the fibre orientation

(A – B / C – D).

If deep tis-

sue layers are to be reached, the electrodes must be placed

crosswise to the fibre orientation

The latter arrangement can,

for example, be achieved via the cross electrode arrange-

ment, e.g.

A – D / B – C.

Note the colour-codes of the cables and the channels. The white cable belongs

to channel CH1 and the grey cable to channel CH2.



In the treatment of pain (TENS) using the Digital EMS/TENS machine with

its 2 separately controllable channels and in each case 2 adhesive elec-

trodes, it is advisable to either position the electrodes of one channel so that the

pain spot lies between the electrodes or else you position one electrode directly

on the pain spot and the other at least 2 – 3 cm away.

The electrodes of the second channel can be used to treat other pain spots si-

multaneously or else, however, together with the electrodes of the first channel, to

surround the pain area (opposite). A cross arrangement is again advisable here.



Massage function tip: always use all 4 electrodes to ensure optimal

treatment.



In order to extend the durability of the electrodes, use them on clean skin

which is as free as possible from hair and grease. If necessary, clean the

skin with water before application and remove the hair.



If an electrode should come loose during use, the impulse intensity of the

corresponding channel is reduced to the lowest level. Apply the electrode

again and reset the desired impulse intensity.

can I stick the electrodes high on my back? between the shoulder blades? or is this dangerous because it's too close to the heart? Submitted on 28-2-2020 at 09:10
