2.1.3 Repair Always contact the manufacturer for repairs! 2.1.4 Disposal The PABLO® system must not be disposed of in the same manner as normal waste, but returned to the company TYROMOTION GmbH. Monthly functionality check / Recurring check 2.2.1 Check list functionality test The functionality checks described here must be performed on a monthly basis.
Recurring checks may only be carried out by technically qualified personnel. The device operator must ensure that the intervals for the recurring checks stipulated by him are observed. Usage of the PABLO® system must cease if the inspection intervals are not observed.
The hand’s extension- and flexion forces can be measured by means of force sensors inside the cylindrical handles. The special design of the PABLO® Handsensor allows for measuring the force of functional grasp motions such as pincer-, lateral- and interdigital grips.
2.3.2 PABLO® Motionsensor Figure 7: PABLO® Motionsensor The PABLO® Motionsensor is connected to the PC via Bluetooth and can be used both independently and in combination with the PABLO® Multiball, PABLO® Multiboard or the included strap set. It is a portable, compact and wireless sensor for monitoring spatial movement.
2.3.3 PABLO® Multiboard Figure 8: PABLO® Multiboard The PABLO® Multiboard, in combination with the PABLO® Motionsensor, is used for active training of the entire upper extremity and the torso. With this component, the elbow- and shoulder-joints can be moved in different directions.
-extension. 2.3.5 PABLO® Charger Figure 10: PABLO® Charger You can charge up to six PABLO® Motionsensors respectively up to two PABLO® Handsensor with the PABLO® Charger. Place the PABLO® Sensors in the designated positions.
Charging Battery: In order to charge the batteries, first connect the PABLO® Charger to a plug and then put the PABLO® Sensors onto the charging sockets destined for the sensors. The PABLO® Sensors switches into the charging mode automatically (Note the LED display described in Chapter 2.3.6).
Page 29
TYROMOTION GmbH is expressly forbidden, because unforeseen risks could arise for people and equipment. Make sure there are no other objects than the charging PABLO® Sensors on the PABLO® Charger, as they may cause harm to the device as well as to people.

Pull the finger strap through the two strap clamps on the left-hand side of the PABLO® Handsensor, starting from the bottom. Then, pull the wrist strap through the strap clamps on the right-hand side of the PABLO® Handsensor. Make sure the orange Velcro® strap is pulled through the upper-, and the black Velcro®...
3.6 Preparation PABLO® Multiball/Multiboard 3.6.1 PABLO® Multiball In order to prevent any therapy disruption as well as damages to the PABLO® Multiball, it can be attached to the patient’s hand with the strap included. Remove the PABLO® Multiball and the supplied straps from the packaging and place them in front of you.
Page 36
Now, thread the short Velcro® straps with the stoppers through the narrow strap clamps at the back of the PABLO® Multiball. Make sure the Velcro® fastener faces upwards. The stoppers prevent the short Velcro® straps from slipping off the strap clamps when unfastened.
Figure 23: Threading the wide strap at the front 3.6.2 PABLO® Multiboard The PABLO® Multiboard is disassembled when delivered (main arm, two hand rests, one handle). Mount the single components of the PABLO® Multiboard with the 6 raised flathead screws included. Use the hex driver included.
3.7 Preparation PABLO® Motionsensor The PABLO® Motionsensor can be mounted to and dismounted from the PABLO® Multiball or the PABLO® Multiboard with the buckle release, or connected with the strap system. When mounting the PABLO® Motionsensor, make sure that the arrow on the housing always points in the correct direction.

Figure 32: Fixation of the thumb on the PABLO® Multiball Attaching the PABLO® Motionsensor The sensors can be attached to various parts of the upper and lower extremities as well as the torso with the straps included in the set.
Click the PABLO® Motionsensor into the designated bracket. PLEASE NOTE: When attaching the PABLO® Motionsensor, make sure that the arrow on the housing always points upwards. Figure 35: Correctly attaching the PABLO® Motionsensor Using the straps to fixate the PABLO® Motionsensor may cause skin irritations.
4.5.4 Switching off the PABLO® system Terminate the application by exiting the tyroS® Software and closing down the PC. If a PABLO® Sensor is disconnected from the software for more than an hour, it will switch off automatically. Please always observe the tyroS® software user manual throughout the entire training.
When using the PABLO® System, certain aspects have to be considered in order to achieve correct values. The PABLO® Sensor has to be fixated or attached to the patient’s body in such a way that it can tilt or rotate during therapy as depicted in Figure 36 and Figure 37.
Page 49
Figure 38: Linear motions without tilting of the sensor cannot be measured or lead to inaccurate values Why are the angles displayed in the tyroS® Assessments inverted when using the PABLO® Motionsensor? Make sure the sensor is attached and aligned correctly (note the direction of the arrow on the housing).
