    WARNING • DO NOT operate the Vectra Pro when connected to any unit other than Chattanooga Group, Inc. devices. Do not operate the unit in an environment Text with a “WARNING” indicator will explain of short-wave diathermy use.
  • Page 7: 2- Theory Of Operation

    2- THEORY of OPERATION Vectra™ Pro 2.1 Overview The Vectra series electrotherapy products are comprised of several PC board assemblies housed within a common enclosure. These assemblies each support a distinct function in the product. The basic elements are User Interface, Control Board, Stim Generation Board, Ultrasound Board, Ultrasound Applicator, and Power Supply Circuits.
  • Page 8: Stim Generation Board

    By storing the calibration data in the applicator there is no calibration necessary for the ultrasound board and any calibrated Chattanooga Group, Inc. compatible applicator can be attached and operated to provide accurate output.
