  • Page 3: Introduction

    2. D ESTINATION AND CLASSIFICATION Wave Plus is a system for the data collection of biologic signals; the main system feature is the absence of cables between the transmitters on the patient and the data receiver/recording unit. This allows the acquisition of EMG and accelerometer signal while patient is free to move.
  • Page 4 Pag. 4 di 37 ATA PRIMA EMISSIONE Wave Plus system is classified according to CEI 60601-1:1998: - The applied part is a BF type according to CEI EN 60601-2-40 regulation (icon): - Second class device working with an external power supply providing power to internal peripheral units;...

  • Page 5: How To Use It

    To use the Wave Plus system only as an inertial acquisition system, that is by using only the accelerometers included in the probes and not the EMG signal acquisition, it is sufficient to attach or strip the probes in the designated place, without any need for pre-gelled electrodes.
