them at an effective level and
considerably limiting the onset of
muscular contractions.
■
Short measurement tests (lasting 2
to 3 seconds) are carried out
regularly throughout the entire
programme.
■
There is a test phase after each
increase of the stimulation energies.
To ensure the correct performance
of these tests, you must remain
perfectly still during this time.
■
Depending on the results of the
measurement tests recorded by the
device, the level of the stimulation
energies may be slightly decreased
automatically.
■
It is important always to adopt the
most comfortable possible
stimulation position. Also, you
should try to remain still and not
contract the muscles of the
stimulated area.
m-6
■
This function indicates the ideal
energy adjustment range for
programmes whose efficiency
requires vigorous muscular twitches.
■ The m-6 function is therefore
only available in programmes that
use low stimulation frequencies (less
than 10 Hz).
■
For programmes allowing the use of
the m-6 function, the stimulator
checks whether you are in the ideal
energy range. If you are below the
range, the stimulator prompts you to
increase the energy by displaying
signs.
■
Once the stimulator has detected
your ideal adjustment area, a square
bracket will appear to the right of
the bar graph of the channel to
which the m-4 system is
connected. The figures in this
bracket indicate the energy range
you must work in order to achieve
optimal results.
■
If you set the energy level below this
range, the stimulator will prompt
you to increase it by flashing a series
of
signs on the screen.
