On And Off Time; Cycle-Controlled Pulse Parameter Variation; Unit Description; Description Of Components - Beurer EM 80 Manual Del Usuario

With prolonged application, readjustment may be necessary due to time
adjustment processes at the site of application.

3.5 ON and OFF time

ON time describes the stimulation time of the cycle in seconds, i.e. the length
of the cycle in which pulses are delivered to the body. OFF time, on the other
hand, indicates the length of the cycle (in seconds) which is stimulation-free.

3.6 Cycle-controlled pulse parameter variation

In many cases it is necessary to cover the entirety of tissue structures at the
site of application by using several pulse parameters. With the Digital TENS/
EMS unit, this is done by the existing programmes automatically making a
cyclical pulse parameter change. This also prevents individual muscle groups
at the site of application from getting tired.
With the Digital TENS/EMS unit there are useful presettings for current para
meters. During the application, however, you do have the possibility of
changing pulse intensity at any time and, with individual programmes, you
can also alter pulse frequency beforehand in order implement the application
which is the most comfortable or promises the most success for you.

4.2 Key functions

Every time a key is pressed, this is acknowledged by a signal tone in order to
ensure that any unintentional pressing of a key is detected. This signal tone
cannot be switched off.
ON/OFF
(1) Hit briefly to switch on the device. If the key is held down for 10 seconds
when switching on, the unit automatically switches off again.
(2) Press once (= pause mode) to interrupt and continue stimulation treat-
a
ment.
b
(3) Hold ON/OFF key down (approx. 3 seconds) to switch off the device.
c
d ▲ and ▼
(1) Select (A) treatment programme, (B) treatment time and (C) frequency,
pulse width, number of cycles, ON/OFF time.
(2) The DOWN key ▼ is used to reduce pulse intensity for all channels during
stimulation.
