CHAPTER 17 : ADJUSTING THE CONTROLS
1. Slide Cover:
A slide-on panel cover covers the controls
for Pulse Width, Pulse Rate,Mode Selector
and Modulation Selector. Your medical
professional may wish to set these
controls for you and request that you leave
the cover in place.
2. Display Led
Each of the leds illuminates whenever the electronics of the device create a
current impulse. Due to the capacity of the human eye, the illumination of the
lamp can only be recognized up to a frequency of approximately 30 Hz. At higher
frequencies, the lamp will appear to be constantly illuminated.
3. On/Off Switch and Intensity Control :
If both controls are in the off-position (white markings on the housing),the
device is switched off. By turning the controls clockwise, the appropriate
channel is switched on and the impulse display led will illuminate and begin to
pulse according to the frequency set.
The current strength of the impulses transmitted to the electrodes increases
further when the control is turned clockwise.
To reduce the current strength or switch the device off , turn the controls
counter clockwise to the required setting or off- position.
