DATA RETRIEVAL MODE (View Saved Tests) • With the device in the test mode (displaying zeroes in both display windows), hold down the threshold button and click the reset button, this puts the device in data retrieval mode. • The device will display the peak force (in the peak force window), test number (in the left hand side of the duration window), and duration of the test (in the right hand side of the duration window) (See Figure 3).
Figure 4. Wireless Mode Setting • The duration screen will display the current wireless power mode as “On” or “Off”. • Toggle the wireless power setting by pressing the threshold button to select wireless “On” or “Off”. • Press the reset button. ressing reset saves the setting in eprom memory, and returns the device to test mode.
Figure 5. LCD Display Windows /Threshold Setting and Sample Test Results • The threshold can be toggled between high and low by pressing the threshold button (see Figure 2) when the device is in test mode. During testing, live force and time readings will display in LCD windows when the force being applied goes above the threshold selected, and ends when force goes below the threshold.
BATTERY CHECK • With the device powered on in test mode, hold down the threshold button and click the reset button. • Continue to hold the threshold button for five seconds. The device will display “P” in the peak force window and a number from 1 to 100 in the duration window.

position to exert force against the limb associated with the muscle. The test begins with the clinician gradually applying force and the patient trying to resist. The object of the test is for the clinician to overcome, or "break" the patient's resistance. Multiple published studies show that hand-held dynamometry provides consistent, reliable results, both across multiple tests by single tester, and across multiple testers.
