Power-Down Time: when engaged, this fill will power down the device only if it remains idle for the duration specified. Keep Sensors On: This feature will ensure that the wireless sen- sors remain turned on even when idle. When this feature is disengaged, the wireless sensors will turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity. Time Format: This option specifies whether to display the time in 12h or 24h format. Date Format: This options specifies the date format presentation. 13 TrignoTM Personal Monitor User’s Guide Setting the Time In order to guarantee data integrity and proper file synchronization with EMGworks, it is fundamentallly important that the Personal Monitor retain accurate time settings during operation. The internal clock is automallicatly synchronized by EMGworks when the device is connected to a PC. In cases where access to a PC is restricted, it is possible to manually set the time by selecting the “Set Clock” option from the Menu options. Figure 8. Setting the Date & Time 14 Using the Wireless EMG Sensors Orienting the Sensors on the Skin Trigno EMG Sensors are fitted with 4 silver bar contacts for detectinUg the EMG signal at the skin surface. It is crucial that the orientation of these bars be perpendicular to the muscle fibers for maximum signal detection. The top of the sensor is shaped with an arrow to aid in the determination of this orientation. The arrow should be placed parallel to the muscle fibers underneath the sensor. The sensor should also be placed in the center of the muscle belly away from tendons and the edge of the muscle. The sensor is easily attached to the skin using the Delsys Adhesive Sensor Interface muscle fiber direction Figure 9. EMG Sensors must be properly oriented with the muscle fibers. Align the sensor’s arrow with the direction of the underlying muscle fibers. Cleaning the Sensor Site Prior to affixing the EMG sensor on the surface of the skin, the sensor site must be properly cleaned to remove dry dermis and any skin oils. Wiping the skin prior to sensor application is critical. If excessive hair is present, it will also be necessary to shave the site. In cases where the skin is excessively dry, it may be useful to dislodge dry skin cells by dabbing the site with medical tape. The dry cells will attach the tape’s adhesive when it is removed. Be sure to wipe with isopropyl alcohol to remove any adhesive residue that may remain. Applying the Sensor Interface Trigno System are supplied with specially-designed adhesive interfaces to simplify sensor attachment. These interfaces are cut from double-sided medical grade adhesive approved for dermatological applications. Usage of the interface promotes a high quality electrical connection between the sensor bars and the skin, minimizing mo- 15 TrignoTM Personal Monitor User’s Guide tion artifacts and the ill-effects of line interference. To ensure a strong bond with the skin, it is advised to remove excessive hair and wipe the skin area and the EMG Sensor with isopropyl alcohol to remove oils and surface residues. Allow the skin to dry completely before applying the interfaces. Adhesive Sensor Interfaces are for single use only. Immediately discontinue use if skin irritation or discomfort occurs. All Adhesive Sensor Interfaces and Reference Electrodes are for single use only. Discard after using. Reseal storage bag to maintain freshnes Sensor Pairing Trigno sensors communicate with a custom wireless protocol that links each sensor to a Personal Monitor. This linking process is known as sensor “pairing”, and is initiated through the “Pair” command. 1. Initiate sensor pairing in software. When using EMGworks, initiate pairing by right-clicking the Trigno hardware icon in the system notification area, and selecting the appropriate menu item. Figure 10. Selecting the Pair command form the Windows Tray Icon. Right click to access menu options. 16 2. Complete the pairing process by depressing the desired sensor button for a minimum of 3 seconds. Successful pairing will result in 3 green LED flashes on the sensor, and a confirmational message in the software. Figure 11. Pushing the sensor button to complete the pairing process.. Trigno systems are shipped with all sensors appropriately paired. Sensor pairing is typically needed if sensors are being replaced within the network group, when the communication frequency sets are changed, and after a firmware upgrade is performed. Sensor Factory Calibration The system stores calibration information for sensors which have been paired with it. When collecting data with EMGworks, this calibration information is used to accurately display measured values, in many cases without the need for a user-initiated manual calibration. After a pairing operation is completed, the system automatically searches for pre-existing factory calibration data on the particular sensor. If the sensor has never been paired with the system (for example, in the case of a new additional sensor), the software will prompt the user to enter factory calibration data, which can be obtained from Delsys. Factory calibration data are a string a numbers and letters which encode the calibration values for a specific sensor. Factory calibrations are specific to a single sensor and will not be accepted by the software for use on another sensor. At any time a nominal, “default” calibration may be selected for a sensor, or the specific factory calibration may be reentered. This feature is accessed by re-pairing the sensor. Figure 12. Factory Calibration Prompt. The calibration can be either autodetected,or entered manually if the sensor is being paired for the first time. 17 TrignoTM Personal Monitor User’s Guide Smart Sensors After pairing, the association of sensors to the TPM is retained for all future uses. Any configuration in EMGworks can be made to reflect the last paired set of sensors by clicking the “Refresh Smart Sensors” button in the “Add Sensors” pane in EMGworks. When data collection starts, the software will verify that the sensors currently communicating match those used in the configuration. If there is a mismatch, cancel the recording and repair the sensors. Sensor Modes Each Trigno sensor can operate in one of 4 possible data collection modes, which determines the type of data being collected. When using EMGworks, the sensor mode can be set on the sensor settings pane for each sensor. Note that the number of modes available is determined by the Trigno sensor type. Figure 13. Setting Senosr Modes in EMGwork. 18 Maintenace and Care Smart Sensors Trigno sensor are encased in a sealed polycarbonate enclosure. The following points should be kept in mind when handling the sensors. • All sensors should be visually inspected before each use to ensure that no mechanical deterioration has occurred. • The sensors can be cleaned and sterilized with a damp cloth and mild detergent, or with 70% isopropyl alcohol swabs. Ensure that the sensor contacts remain clean at all times for proper operation. • While the sensors are sealed and are water-resistant, these should never be completely submerged in any liquid. They are design to be used on damp skin surfaces and in the presence of sweat without compromise to safety, sensor integrity or operation. • The sensor contacts are made of pure silver and are quite soft. Care should be taken to preserve the integrity of these contacts. Do not scrape or dent these contacts. • Handle the sensors with care: do not drop them on the groun or step on them. Do not submerge the sensors in any liquid under any circumstance. The sensors contain sensitive electronic circuitry. Static discharges and intense magnetic fields should be avoided to prevent the risk of irreparable damage to the sensors. 19 TrignoTM Personal Monitor User’s Guide 20
