Conductance Bar Graph - Dynatronics Dynatron 850 Plus Service Manual

7. Administer treatment until the treatment time expires, or press STOP to stop all
treatments in progress at any time.
Each of the therapies you can deliver with the Dynatron 850plus and 550plus offers its own
default settings. To make your treatment setup even more convenient, the Dynatron 850plus
and 550plus allow you to change the defaults for each modality to your own most common
treatment selections. See "Setting Defaults" later in this manual.
The following pages provide more detailed setup instructions for each individual modality.
Before administering a treatment to a patient, be sure to read all treatment instructions
as well as contraindications, warnings, and precautions for that modality provided later
in this manual. Also, consult published literature for recommended application of these
modalities.

Conductance Bar Graph

This feature for models having software greater than Rev. 1.01 only (see Page 2).
During setup of an interferential or premodulated treatment, a conductance graph is
automatically displayed in the Time display while you set the treatment intensity. The graph
allows you to see whether conductance is good for that treatment setup and if current is being
delivered efficiently through the electrodes. The display reverts to the Time display when
you press any other key after setting the intensity. You may again view this conductance
graph at any time during an interferential, premodulated, or microcurrent treatment by
pressing FUNCTION-TIME. The conductance bar graph is not available for combination
treatments.
The bar graph uses the eight segments in the top half of the display, with eight lighted
segments indicating best conductance, and one lighted segment indicating poorest
conductance. In the illustration below, eight of the eight segments are lighted indicating good
conductance.
Eight lighted segments indicate conductance is good. If only
two or three segments are lighted, conductance is poor.
