COMBINATION - Treatment Instructions

REMOTE STOP: During “unattended therapy,” a patient stop button is provided to
allow the patient to stop treatment. The remote cord should be plugged into the machine
prior to starting the treatment. When the remote stop button is pressed, all output from
the device is stopped, time is set to zero, and a tone sounds briefly.
STOP ONE TREATMENT ONLY: If you have more than one treatment in progress,
you can stop one treatment by either of the following methods. First, press the channel
toggle key to select the channel to be stopped (that channel’s light is green when
selected).
FUNCTION-STOP. Press and hold the FUNCTION key and press STOP.
REDUCE THE TREATMENT TIME TO ZERO. Press the Time down arrow
until the Time display reaches zero. The device beeps when the time reaches
zero.
The output for the channel(s) selected is stopped (during a combo treatment this includes
both stim and sound channels), and the device then displays the parameters for the next
treatment that remains in progress (if any).
NOTE: Pausing a Combo Treatment
In Combo mode, if a treatment is paused by any means (either by pressing the PAUSE key or as a result of
a soundhead that has become too hot), the ultrasound output is stopped and the treatment timer is paused.
However, the stim current continues to be delivered. Therefore, the pause condition should be corrected as
quickly as possible and the treatment resumed, or the treatment should be stopped completely by pressing
the STOP button.
If the button on the REMOTE STOP cable is pressed during a Combo treatment, both the sound and the
stim portions of the treatment are stopped at once.
Modify Treatment
• Modifications to a treatment in progress may be made to both modalities used. See the
instructions earlier in this manual for specific modification instructions for each modality.
Keep in mind that since the stim and the ultrasound modalities share the Time and
Power-Intensity displays, you will need to select the desired output channel with the
channel toggle key before making changes to the ultrasound or the stim portion of the
treatment.
• Treatment time for both treatments is simultaneous. Changing the treatment time affects
both therapies.
