Step 2: Make the Saline

1. Get salt and water
   Salt, 3/4 teaspoon (Half a dinner spoon)
   
   Water, 1/2 Liter (16.9oz bottled water)
   
2. Make the saline
   First, heat the water.
   Second, stir in the salt. Third, cool the water.
   
3. Soak the sponges
   
4. Squeeze the sponges
   
   (gently squeeze)

Tips and Maintenance

1. Sponges can last for months.
2. Rinse sponges in water after use.
3. Microwave sponges in water once a week for 30−60s.
4. Keep sponges dry after use.

Step 3: Prepare the Electrodes

Get the parts

2x sponges

2x electrodes

2x cases

Assemble electrodes

• Soak each sponge with saline
• Place one sponge on top of each electrode
• Place each electrode into a plastic case

Find pin connector

Turn the sponge electrode on its back side. There is a small pinhole connector. See the orange square.

Connect electrodes

The L-shaped plug connects to the device's top.

Step 4: Place the Electrodes

Try a test montage

A Montage tells you where the electrodes are placed on the scalp.

Secure electrodes

Use the headband to hold the electrodes against your head.

For tDCS Mode

The electrode with the red pin is placed at the red circle

The electrode with the black pin is placed at the black circle

The pin color matters!

For tACS Mode

The electrode with the red pin can go in either green circle

The electrode with the black pin can go in either green circle

The pin color does not matter.

NOTE. The electrodes are not actually red, black, or green. These colors are only used to show how to connect the pins and where to place the electrodes.

Step 5: Select a Session

Meter (optional)

Press the top right button to access the optional session meter. The meter is off by default.

Preset Session

Press the top left button to access presets. There are 3 preset tDCS sessions and 3 preset tACS sessions.

tDCS Session

Press the bottom left button for tDCS. This uses steady current to enhance or calm brain activity.

tACS Session

Press the bottom right button for tACS.
tACS uses oscillating current to promote brain rhythms.

Note 1. Presets let you quickly start a tDCS or tACS session.

Note 2. Full tDCS and tACS modes let you customize the session time and intensity. tACS mode also lets you customize frequency.

Step 6: Run a Session

Adjust and begin

Adjust the settings with the left and bottom buttons (black dots). Press the red button to start.

Gradual start

Sessions begin (end) with a 30s ramp up (down). Only the top right button is enabled during ramps.

Output intensity

After the ramp up, you control the intensity using the bottom buttons.

Pause or stop

Pause / resume with the red button.
Stop immediately with the top right button. Otherwise, the session ends when the timer runs out.

Note. The session meter is off by default. Go to Options in the home screen to turn the meter on or off.

Step 7: Try the Meter

Turn the meter on

The meter is off by default

Start any session

Improve the connection

Pro Tip. Try testing the meter first with only the electrodes. Have the electrodes touch sponge to sponge.

Step 9: Explore the Technology

tDCS = transcranial direct current stimulation

Current flows from red to black

anode: positive (+) electrode where current enters the head.
cathode: negative (−) electrode where current exits the head.

tACS = transcranial alternating current stimulation

Current oscillates back and forth

electrodes: the current flips between + and − over time.

frequency: how many cycles per second (Hertz = Hz).

Resistance: how hard it is to push current between electrodes
