Electrode placement for pain programs

Now place the electrodes. The self-adhesive electrodes are placed on parts of the skin (the
parts shown below are just examples). The current flowing out of one channel consists of a
positive pole (anode) and a negative pole (cathode). The red cable connector indicates the
anode, the blue cable connector the cathode. Consider that the poles are switching in case
of biphasic impulses.
Attention: We recommend (for both the monophasic and the biphasic programs) putting
the anode to this part of the skin on which the biggest pain is.
(Excpetion: At program 16 (Jenkner) the anode is not to be placed on the part with the
biggest pain).
