WAVEFORMS (CONTINUED)
TENS- Symmetrical Biphasic
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
The Symmetrical Biphasic waveform has a short pulse duration and is capable
of strong stimulation of nerve fibers in the skin and in muscle. This waveform
is often used in portable muscle stimulation units, and some TENS devices.

TENS - HAN
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
The HAN Waveform provides optimal parameters with a precisely controlled
sequence of Dense-and-Disperse (DD) modes of stimulation where a burst of
8 pulses at 80Hz is alternating with continuous stimulation (no burst), each
lasting for 3 seconds.
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0-100 mA (CC)
Phase Duration 180 μsec
Mode Selection CC
Burst Frequency 2 Hz
Frequency 80 Hz
Treatment Time 1-60 min
Available on Channels 1, 2, 3, 4
IRMS [mA] 0-19 mA
DC component No
VMS™
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
VMS is a symmetrical biphasic waveform with a 100 µsec interphase interval.
Because the pulse is relatively short, the waveform has a low skin load,
making it suitable for applications requiring high intensities, such as in muscle
strengthening protocols.
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0- 140 mA (CC) 0-140 V (CV)
Channel Mode Single, Reciprocal, Co-Contract
Phase Duration 30-1,000 µsec
Mode Selection CC or CV
Anti-Fatigue Off or On
Set Intensity Individual/both Channel
Intensity Setting in Reciprocal
and Co-Contract modes
Cycle Time Continuous or User Defined
Frequency 1-200 pps
Ramp 0-5 sec
Treatment Time (Stim) 1-60 min
Treatment time (Combo) 1-30 min
Available on Channels 1, 2, 3, 4
IRMS [mA] 0-50 mA
DC component No
Microcurrent
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
Microcurrent is a monophasic waveform of very low intensity. The literature
reports beneficial effects of this waveform in the treatment of wounds. The
physiological working mechanism of this effect is as yet not clearly
understood. It is thought to stimulate tissue healing by stimulating the
‘current of injury’, a current which naturally occurs in healing tissue.
