Chapter 2 Controls and Indicators
The design of IONOSON-Basic allows for easy operation, in combination with a variety of functions. Be-
cause of its small size, the instrument is very easy to transport. It has been designed for operation both in-
side and outside of therapy rooms, and is fed by rechargeable batteries for that reason (only battery oper-
ated model, refer to Mains and Battery Operation on page 38).
All controls and indicators are integrated into the housing, thus allowing for easy cleaning of the instru-
ment's surface and protecting it from dust.
The instrument's microprocessor monitors the safety-related components, prevents from erroneous opera-
tion and checks the instrument after switching it on.
