6.2.2 Energy management
mi-RANGE:
This function indicates the minimum energy threshold for programmes whose eectiveness requires
obtaining vigorous muscular twitches. The mi-RANGE function is therefore only available for programmes
using low stimulation frequencies (below 10 Hz).
For programmes that allow the mi-RANGE function, the stimulator first prompts you to increase the
energy level:
• A beep will accompany the flashing “+” symbols.
• When a muscle pumping is first detected, the “+” symbols stop flashing.
• You are at the minimum energy level to provide therapeutic results.
• If you set the stimulation energy below the ideal range of treatment, the stimulator prompts you to raise
them again by continuously flashing + signs.
Where recommended, this function is automatically activated.
mi-TENS:
The mi-TENS function can reduce the appearance of unwanted muscular contractions (e.g. at TENS Gate-
Control programs), thus providing maximum comfort and eciency.
Short tests are performed regularly throughout the duration of the programme.
A testing phase takes place systematically after each increase in stimulation intensity. In order to allow its
smooth progress it is essential to remain perfectly still during this time.
According to the test results recorded by the device, the level of stimulation intensities may be slightly
decreased automatically.
Where recommended, this function is automatically activated, but can be deactivated.
