Using these combinations you can set the programs for both the A and B channel sets (if you’re using both), then hit the lock button. Things get intense pretty quickly, so I have a moderate/low intensity set here. The T button now allows you to cycle through the time allotted for the program, from 10 minutes to 90 minutes.įinally you’ll set the intensity using the + and – keys. Each pattern changes the cycle and intensity of the electric pulses. In the example below I have cycled through to program 2, which is a TENS program for your back muscles. Options 17-24 are specific to EMS, which is a much more intense experience designed to build muscle as opposed to muscle recovery. You’ve got four muscle groups on screen (back, shoulder, arms, legs) with four different TENS patterns to choose from for each area. Unfortunately there isn’t any documentation about what each mode actually does, so you have to do some experimenting. There are 24 options to choose from, and you cycle through the numbered programs to get to the one you want. Now you’ll use the “M” button to cycle through the program options. You’ll use the center button to choose between the “A” or “B” channel to pick which set of outputs you are setting up. Once you’re all plugged in and the pads are applied it’s time to start your program. You’ve got plenty of reach to do a calf/shoulder treatment at the same time, for example. The cables are 60″ long which is even better for multi-site use. I’ve got 8 pads here and all four cables to work both legs at the same time, which is great for efficiency. Here’s a four-pad setup (2 cables) that I set up for my shoulder.Īnd finally we have a calf treatment setup. My wife is modeling the two-pad treatment (one cable) that we set up to work her neck muscles. Once the pads are connected, you’ll plug the cable into the unit. Your kit also includes two double-wide pads (not shown) which may be appropriate for the area you are planning to treat, but they connect the same way. I’ve got 2 cables here so I am using all four pads in this pack. Once you have removed the pads from the bag you will plug the cables into the leads on the pads as shown below. They use solid gel pads to stick to your body which should be resealed in the bag on their plastic tabs after use to keep the gel sticky. These come four to a bag that can be resealed after use. You’ll start by cracking the seal on your stimulator pads. That means you can set two different programs to treat up to 4 different muscle groups at the same time. The A1 & A2 ports are controlled on one channel and the B1 & B2 ports on the other. One of the unique features on this device is that you have 4 stimulator outputs, which means you can apply anywhere from 2 to 8 pads depending on what muscle areas you are treating. That center button allows you to toggle between the “A” and “B” stimulator sets, which we’ll get into below. You’ll cycle through the different modes (the M key), desired time duration (T key), and intensity (+ and – keys) to set your program. All of your program controls are at the bottom on the front of the device.
