DS5 Isolated Bipolar Constant Current Stimulator DS5 Operator's Manual 5.0
The lower section of the label contains the “MOD. RECORD STATUS” (Modification Record Status) which
indicates the build status of the unit and any modifications that have been subsequently performed to the
unit.
At the time of writing, no changes to the DS5 have caused a rise in the MOD RECORD STATUS, hence no
numbers are crossed out.
Unpacking
After unpacking the DS5 stimulator from the shipping carton, please inspect each piece for any sign of
shipping damage. Please contact the carrier and your distributor, or Digitimer Limited, immediately if there
is any damage. Do not dispose of the shipping carton, as the carrier will want to examine it in order to
process a damage claim. Digitimer Limited and their distributors insure all shipments to cover shipping
damage.
It is also advisable to keep the shipping carton in the event that the instrument needs to be returned for
service.

Please note that the USB cable supplied is specifically for use with the DS5. USB cables from other suppliers
are NOT suitable for use with this stimulator and may result in increased EMC emissions or decreased EMC

British plug in these cases.
