Programme Progression - Compex energy Manual Del Usuario

Adjusting stimulation energies
W hen you start a programme, you will be
prompted to increase the stimulation
energies. This is critical to the success of
any treatment. To find out what energy

You must increase the stimulation energy so that
the stimulation can start. To do this, press the +
buttons for the relevant channels until the
desired setting is reached. If you want to

N.B.: Active rest phase stimulation energies
are automatically set at 50% of contraction
energies. These can be modified during the rest
phase. Once modified, they will be totally
independent of the contraction energies.
