Conform with Council Directive 93/42/EEC of 14 June 1993 concerning medical devices. Device description The EMP 2 PRO was designed to stimulate human nerves and muscles. The keys may be used to make all adjustments necessary. The display shows the different operating modes.
Operating the EMP 2 PRO Switching on the device Switch on the device using the key. The EMP 2 PRO starts with the programme number which was active when the device was last switched off. Using the 230-Volt mains supply (optional)
Operating Instruction - EMP 2 PRO the display on the right hand-side you find two vertical lines. This means: with key both channels will be increased at the same time. Setting the intensity You can use the modification keys or the key to set the intensity of both channels to a pleasant value at any time.
Locking the intensity Choose the programme desired for the patient using the key (please refer to section entitled “Description of the programmes“). The EMP 2 PRO will be lo- cked automatically after 10 sec. without increasing or decreasing the intensity.
Operating Instruction - EMP 2 PRO Programme parameters Programme 1, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11: 1. frequency: 20 Hz up to 120 Hz (Fig. 7) 2. pulse width: 70 µs up to 500 µs (Fig. 8) 3. total run time: 1 up to 99 min. (Fig. 12)
Description of parameters These values are used to check the patient’s stimulation behaviour. The fol- lowing information are reported by the EMP 2 PRO: The stimulation time (Fig. 13) is the total time during which stimulation was carried out with the device.
