  • Page 2: Foreword

    For integration into classic biofeedback and neurofeedback with a ProComp encoder from Thought Technology. For this purpose, a HEG neuro Connector is required, which ensures the transmission between HEG neuro and the Pro- Comp encoder. This makes it possible to measure and train a large number of peripheral parameters such as muscle tension, pulse, ECG, ...

    The use for other purposes is not intended and therefore not permitted. Attention Do not place the HEG neuro too tightly against the head. It could squeeze the exerciser and / or lead to incorrect training data due to increased stress.
  • Page 5 HEG neuro, although according to DIN EN 60601-1 this colour is only intended to indicate danger or urgent need for action. When using the HEG neuro, there is no dangerous situation that needs to be indicated in this way.
  • Page 6: A Training Session With The Heg Neuro

    A training session with the HEG neuro The HEG neuro is intended for training as well as for changing and controlling the blood oxygen concentration in the forehead area. To use the HEG neuro, the following procedure has proven to be eff ective: 1.

    If this is not the case, press the button again. If the light still does not start fl as- hing, the HEG neuro is probably discharged. Then connect it to a power source before the training session. Follow the instructions in the subchapter Charging...
  • Page 8: Connect The Heg Neuro To The Receiver

    2. Connect the HEG neuro to the receiver You can use the HEG neuro in many ways. The connection to the receiver is wireless: 1. Connect to a mobile end device (smartphone or tablet) for relaxation and concentration training. To do this, follow the procedure as described in the instructions for use for the Body &...
  • Page 9: Attach Heg Neuro To Head

    Remove grease, sweat and make-up from the contact surface of the HEG neuro with a cloth. Make sure that the HEG neuro rests directly on the forehead of the user. Hair and make-up should be removed from the contact surface - or at least from the location of the lamps.
  • Page 10 This fi xes the length of the head- band. 3. Place the HEG neuro on the forehead of the exerciser. Make sure that the HEG neuro is correctly aligned: the fl at surface is against the forehead. The writing on the front (curved surface) should be ‚normally‘...
  • Page 11 Watch out for the trainee‘s hair. The fastener could pull. 8. If necessary, correct the position of the HEG neuro housing on the forehe- ad. It should be positioned centrally on the forehead. The sensor may be too tight or too loose. Then change the length of the straps again.
  • Page 12: Start And Conduct Session

    4. Start and conduct session HEG neuro is now available as a sensor for the training. You can start and conduct the session as described in the instructions for use of the Body & Mind app or BioGraph. During the session, the stimulation LEDs located on the underside of the HEG neuro generate red and infra-red light.
  • Page 13: Set Heg Neuro Down

    5. Set HEG neuro down At the end of the training session, the HEG neuro can be removed from the head again. To do this, simply open the locking clip again from the clip holder. You can then simply remove the HEG neuro from the head.
  • Page 14: Switch Off Heg Neuro

    6. Switch off HEG neuro After the HEG neuro has been set down, it can be switched off . To do this, press the button next to the lights for about four seconds. The light goes out again. You can now clean the HEG neuro and store it in the soft case.
  • Page 15: Charging The Heg Neuro

    We recommend keeping an eye on the training duration - especially during in- tensive use - and charging the HEG neuro after about 12 hours of operation to ensure suffi cient battery charge. Attention Do not charge the HEG neuro when it is applied to the trainee‘s head.
  • Page 16 The lower light of the HEG neuro starts to glow red. This signals that the charging process has started. 4. Place the HEG neuro next to the charger so that it can be charged in peace and without damage. A complete charge of the HEG neuro takes about 3 hours. The end of the charging process is reached when the lower light on the HEG neuro lights up green.
  • Page 17: Storage And Care

    Storage and care • Store the HEG neuro in the soft case in which it was delivered. This protects it from damage, dust and strong light. The plastic housing, the LED lights and the headband are then more durable.
  • Page 18 TECH. After each change of exerciser: • Clean the housing of the HEG neuro with a damp, lint-free cloth. Moisten the cloth with cleaning alcohol isopropanol 70 %. • Spray the fastening straps with a disinfectant spray and wait until it is dry...
  • Page 19: Disposal

    This may vary from region to region. For disposal, we recommend removing the retaining strap and the fastening clips from the HEG neuro so that they can be sorted and processed more easily by recycling machines. easier for recycling machines to sort and process.

    The strap is probably too tight and creates too much for the trainee. pressure. Remove the HEG neuro from the exerciser‘s head. While he is recovering, you can use the clamps and the scissors to lengthen the strap so that it is looser on his head.
  • Page 21 Also check the battery charge of the HEG neuro. Too low a battery charge may be the cause. Is the upper light still on? Do any other errors or problems occur when using the HEG neuro? Please contact our technical customer support on +49-(0)5130-97778-0 via mail: service@meditech.de...

    Background to the HEG training „HEG“ stands for hemo-encephalography. With the aid of red/infrared light, the de- gree of redness is the degree of redness in a certain area of the forehead is determi- ned locally; this in turn off ers conclusions about the degree of intensity of the blood fl...
  • Page 25 The decisive advantage of HEG compared to classical neurofeedback sensors is the fast, simple and motion insensitive application and fi xation of the sensor. In contrast to EEG biofeedback, HEG biofeedback requires virtually no preparation or post-pro- cessing time; the application is free from EEG-typical disturbances and leads to fast conditioning processes that are comprehensible for the client.
