EMS MEGAPULSE SENIOR 265 User Manual page 25

As the different settings are selected the maximum and average RF
powers available for each will be calculated and displayed in the
window at the top right of the display.
The 'ELECTRODES' button allows you to select which electrode is
actually being used. A picture of the selected type will appear in the
window at the bottom right of the display.
The Monopulse applicator is only suitable for pulsed treatments and
is, therefore, not available for selection in continuous mode. All other
electrodes may be used in continuous or pulsed mode. By selecting
the electrode type with this option, the Megapulse Senior 265 limits
the output power to a level that can safely be delivered with the
electrode type chosen.
The maximum power display will change to reflect the limit for each
electrode type.
Once the electrode(s) are positioned around the patient treatment is
initiated by turning the rotary control up to the desired level
(generally that which is most comfortable for the patient).
A rotating tuning icon will appear for a few seconds whilst the
machine auto-tunes, then a flashing treatment icon will appear which
indicates that power is being produced at the selected level.
Should the system fail to tune after 45 seconds a warning alarm will
be heard and an error message will appear on the screen. Re-
positioning the electrodes and/or ensuring no metallic objects such
as chair or bed frames are nearby should allow tuning to occur.
