8a Press the On/Off button to interrupt the
programme momentarily. To restart it, simply
press the channel 4 +/- button. The session will
resume at 80% of the energy levels that were in
use prior to the interruption.
8 b c d e The different energies reached
during the contraction phase are shown by a
series of black bar graphs, that of the rest phase
energies are shown by hatched bar graphs.
:
N.B.
Active rest phase stimulation energies
are automatically set at 50% of contraction
energies. These can be modified during the rest
phase. Once modified, they will be totally
independent of the contraction energies.
N.B.: If your Compex emits a beeping sound
and the symbols
begin to flash the stimulator is suggesting you
increase the level of the stimulation energies. If
you are working at the maximum tolerance level,
simply ignore this message.
Statistics
our stimulator includes a statistics menu
Y
that allows you to view in real time the
important information for a programme.
To access the statistics screen, you must
put the stimulator into the "Pause" mode
or wait for the end of the programme.

For programmes inducing muscular
contractions, the indication "MAX" shows the
maximum energy level reached per channel
during contraction phases. "AVG" indicates the
average stimulation energy level used by the
different channels during the contraction phase.

In low frequency programmes, the
m-6
function, symbolised by a single
square bracket shows what percentage of
stimulation time was spent in the optimal energy
range.
