The green power LED on the base station will illuminate when power is connected to the Base Station. The power supply is provided with interchangeable country-specific plug adapters. The power supply can be conveniently stored in the Base Station storage space when the system is not in use. Figure 3. Trigno SC-P05 International Medical Power Supply with plug adapter kit. Trigno System are specifically designed and approved to function only with the Power Supply provided. Power Supply substitutions constitute a violation of the medical safety approvals and will void the warranty. If using a mains-powered PC then an additional isolation transformer is required for medical compliance to IEC60601-1. Refer to Appendix I for further details. No PC isolation is required for operation on a battery-powered laptop. 12 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Getting Started with the TrignoTM System Software Installation The Trigno EMG system is controlled by a PC through the USB port, and thus requires specialized software. Trigno Systems include a Delsys Software DVD containing EMGworks Signal Acquisition and Analysis Software and the Trigno Control Utility software for use with 3rd party data acquisition systems. Install EMGworks from the Delsys Software DVD prior to connecting the Trigno Base Station to the computer. Powering the Base Station Connect the Trigno power supply to the circular DC jack located on the side of the Base Station. Energize the power supply by connecting it to a Mains outlet or to an isolation transformer. Ensure that the PC to be used with the Base Station is connected to the same isolation transformer. Please refer to Appendix I for clarification on using an Isolation Transformer. The power LED on the Base Station will illuminate anytime power is applied. Ensure that the Base Station antenna is securely attached to the antenna connector. Figure 4. Connecting the Trigno Base Station power supply. Connecting the Base Station It is important to install EMGworks software prior to connecting the Base Station to the PC. If not, the “Found New Hardware” dialog will appear and Windows will prompt for a driver location. Cancel this dialog and install EMGworks from the Delsys DVD in order to register the Trigno drivers with the operating system. 13 Once the software is correctly installed, the PC will automatically detect the Trigno Base Station when connected to the USB port. Charging the Sensors Before using the system, the sensors should be fully charged by placing them in the Base Station cradle slots. Ensure the Base Station is powered and that the green power LED is illuminated. When charging, the sensor LEDs will illuminate to an amber color. Once the sensor battery is fully charged the sensor LED will turn green. A complete charge cycle from a fully depleted sensor takes approximately 2.5 hours. Do not force the sensors into the recharging cradles of the Base Station. The sensors are keyed so that they can only be inserted in one orientation. Check the sensor orientation and check for obstructions in the cradle if physical resistance is met while cradling the sensors. Recharge only with the approved power supply (SC-P05) originally included with the system. Charging with any other power supply may damage the device and will void the warranty. Charge Complete Charging Figure 5. Sensor LED feedback for battery charging status. 14 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Acquiring Data in EMGworks Acquisition Refer to the “Acquiring and Plotting Data” video tutorial (provided on the DVD) for a brief introduction to configuring the EMGworks software with the Trigno system. This and additional EMGworks tutorials can be found on our website. Refer to the EMGworks documentation (accessible in the Help menu of the software) for detailed instructions on setting up data collection in EMGworks. Whenever data are collected in EMGworks, the analog outputs on the base station are also active, so it is possible to collect data in EMGworks and in a secondary data acquisition system simultaneously. Sampling the Analog Outputs If samplig the analog output signals from the Trigno System using a 3rd party data acquisition system, refer to the “Using the Analog Outputs” section of this guide. Digital Outputs (Trigno SDK) The Trigno SDK presents digital outputs that can be read into several common data collection platforms. Please refer to our online help for more information. 15 Using the Wireless EMG Sensors Orienting the EMG Sensors on the Skin Trigno EMG Sensors employ 4 silver bar contacts for detecting 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 6. 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 Trigno Adhesive Skin Interfaces Trigno System are supplied with specially-designed adhesive interfaces to simplify sensor attachment. These hypo-allergenic interfaces are manufactured from medical grade adhesive approved for dermatological applications. Usage of the interface promotes a high quality electrical connection between the sensor bars and the 16 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide skin, minimizing motion 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 freshness. Turning the Sensors ON Trigno Sensors are turned on by depressing the rubber button for approximately one second. The green LED on the sensor will immediately begin to flash, and begin searching for a Base Station that has been properly paired and is within its range. If no Base Station is found, the LED will alternate between amber and green, indicating that it does not have an established communication link. As soon a link is established with the Base Station, the sensor LED will flash green approximately once per second, indicating that data are streaming. Figure 7. Turning the Trigno Sensor “ON”. Trigno Sensor Status Console A Status console for Trigno Sensors is available when operating EMGworks and when using the Trigno Control Utility. The console tracks all Trigno sensors in the system in real-time, relaying their on/off state, their battery charge level and their communication quality in the network. Additionally, this console 17 hosts the sensor pairing function and can send an “off” command to all sensors. A compact display of this information is accessible in EMGworks by hovering over the notification area icon for the Trigno hardware. The full dialog is displayed by double-slicking this icon. Figure 8. The Trigno Sensor Status Console offers real-time sensor feedback. A) data acquisition status, B) battery charge state, C) sensor number, D) sensor power, E) wireless signal strength, F) sensor pairing, G) off command. Turning the Sensors Off There are several mechanisms for turning the Trigno sensors off, described as follows: • Send an “off ” command via software • Dock the sensor in an active charge cradle • Hold sensor button for approximately 20 seconds • 5 minute time-out if sensor is not communicating with base station 18 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Using the Analog Outputs The Trigno System provides simultaneous analog signal reconstruction of data being detected by all active sensors. These signals are made available on the 68-pin connectors located on the Base Station. EMG signals at these outputs are amplified by a factor of 909, with full dynamic range of ±5V. Similarly accelerometer signals are presented with a nominal full range of ±5V. These must be calibrated according to their selected operational range (±1.5g, ±6g). Note that the EMG and accelerometer signals exhibit fixed 48 and 96ms delays respectively, from the time the sensor detects the event to the time the analog signal is reproduced. Figure 9. Analog output connectors. Analog Output Connectors Channels 1-16, EMG Signals The pinout of this connector replicates the pinout of the Bagnoli desktop EMG systems to facilitate connectivity between shared equipment. Only EMG signals are provided on this connector. Note that this pinout is also compatible to that of National Instruments data acquisition modules. Channels 1-64, all Signals This connector makes available all 64 analog output channels in the 68-pin connector. This connector is compatible with some 80channel data acquisition modules from National Instruments. 19 Figure 10. Pinouts of the analog output connectors. Screw Terminal Connections Many data acquisition systems are equipped with screw-type wire terminations. In these cases Delsys can supply a cable assembly that mates with the analog output connectors and breaks out the individual channels onto single conductors. Please contact Delsys for details regarding this particular wire assembly or other connectivity needs. Please refer to Appendix II for further details regarding the DC-A22 Unterminated Output Cable. Figure 11. DC-A22 Unterminated Output Cable. 20 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Trigno Control Utility Software The Trigno Control Utility software operates on a PC independently from EMGworks Data Acquisition and Analysis software. The Trigno Control Utility is designed to configure and control the Trigno System so that it becomes a full analog instrument. In this scenario, all data acquisition is performed by sampling the analog channels with 3rd party acquisition systems, often used with Motion Capture Systems. Additionally, the Trigno Control Utility serves to provide digital samples if using the Trigno SDK. Installing the Software The Trigno Control Utility software is included on the Delsys Software DVD. Installing EMGworks will also install the Trigno Control Utility software. The Trigno Control Utility software can also be obtained by downloading the EMGworks installer from the Delsys web site at: http://www.delsys.com/Products/EMGworks.html There is no license required to use the Trigno Control Utility. The system requirements for the Trigno Control Utility software is the same as EMGworks, detailed in the EMGworks User’s Guide: http://www.delsys.com/KnowledgeCenter/NetHelp Launching the Software When installed, the Trigno Control Utility software may be launched from the Start menu under “Delsys, Inc.” To create a desktop shortcut to the Trigno Control Utility, navigate to the program in the Start menu, right click the icon, and select “Send To --> Desktop (create shortcut)”. The Trigno Control Utility application must remain running on the PC for the analog outputs to remain active. The wireless sensor configuration window is accessible from the “configure” button. “Start” and “Stop” controls activate and deactivate the analog outputs, and define the Start and Stop output trigger events. All settings are locked once the “Start” button is depressed, and can only be changed after the “Stop” button is pressed 21 Figure 12. Trigno Control Utility software. Figure 13. Trigno Control Utility software with active outputs 22 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Configuration Options for Trigno System Accessing Configuration Options When editing a configuration in EMGworks, the hardware options for the base station can be set in the Hardware node of the Configuration Tree when the Trigno Wireless System is selected as the primary A/D device. Figure 14. Selecting the Trigno system as the primary A/D device in the Hardware node of the Configuration Tree in EMGworks. When using the Trigno Control Utility, these options can be set by clicking the Configure button. Figure 15. Configure button in Trigno Control Utility 23 Trigno System Information The Information tab presents information pertaining to the system and its settings. Figure 16. Trigno Wireless System information. If multiple bases are connected, the settings for each base are shown on a separate, top level tab. Transmission Frequencies Wireless communication occurs on varieties of frequencies throughout the acceptable 2.4 GHz spectrum. Four frequency sets are available (“A”, “B”, “C” and “D”). The current frequency set is shown here. Firmware Version Delsys may occasionally release firmware upgrades to improve and evolve the functionality of Trigno Systems. The current firmware version is shown here. Serial Number Each Trigno Base Station has a unique serial number and identifier address which is shown here. Network Size Indicates the number of sensors supported by this base. Launch Test Panel Places the Trigno Base Station in a test mode to assist with verification of analog output signal connections. Each of the 64 analog output channels is configured to 24 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide produce a unique sinusoid which can be verified by properly sampling these channels with secondary acquisition system. Refresh This button refreshes the status information. Copy Copies the data the in the Information tab to the clipboard. Trigno System Settings The Settings tab allows several system parameters to be modified as needed. Figure 17. Configuring Trigno Sensor Settings Frequency Set Use this setting to change the frequencies being used for wireless communication. The default set is “A”. The frequency set should only be changed if nearby sources are interfering with Trigno communications or the particular operating environment is causing significant path loss on the current frequency set. Note that changing the communication frequency set will require sensor re-pairing. Frequencies within the sets are defined by the system and cannot be changed by the User. 25 Audible Warnings This option will generate an audible “ping” along with a small message, whenever a sensor falls out of range or it’s battery is excessively low. Mode Control (Analog Output Software Only) In the Analog Output application, the sensor mode is controlled on the Mode Control tab of the Configuration dialog. Information on mode control is available through our EMGworks online help: http://www.delsys.com/Products/EMGworks.html Test Panel The Test Panel is used to verify the analog signal connections with the data acquisition module by outputting predefined and unique signals on each channel. The test signals are sinusoidal in nature and defined by an amplitude, a frequency and an offset. The 26 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide expected outputs for each analog channels are listed in the Test Panel window once the option is slected. Figure 18. The Test Panel Signals. 27 Additional Sensor Information Sensor Pairing Trigno sensors communicate with a custom wireless protocol that links each sensor to a unique Base Station. This linking process is known as sensor “pairing”, and is initiated through the “Pair” command. 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. 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 19. Location of the Trigno hardware icon in the system notification area, and the pairing menu item. When using Trigno Control Utility, click the “Pair” button on the Sensor Status Console. Figure 20. Pair button in the Sensor Status Console. 28 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide 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 21. Complete the process by depressing the sensor button for 3 sec. Sensor Factory Calibration The Trigno 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 of 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 re-entered. This feature is accessed by re-pairing the sensor. Figure 22. Factory Calibration Prompt. The calibration can be either autodetected, or entered manually if the sensor is being paired for the first time. 29 Smart Sensors After pairing, the association of sensors to the base station 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. Figure 23. Refresh Smart Sensors button. Sensor Modes in EMGworks 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 24. Setting sensor modes in EMGworks. 30 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Using Tandem Trigno Systems Two Trigno systems may be used in tandem, connected to the same computer as a synchronized 32 sensor, 128 channel system. Initial Connectivity To use two Trigno systems in a tandem configuration, connect the USB cable from each base station to the same computer. If using EMGworks, also connect the Trigger Cross-Over Cable (DC-C02) between the trigger ports on the two base stations. After connecting the USB cables and powering each base station, launch either the Trigno Control Utility application or EMGworks. Note that the trigger cross-over cable will work irrespective of orientation. Figure 25. Installation of the Trigger Cross-Over cable to synchronize two base stations when used with EMGworks. Communication Frequencies When the software detects the presence of two bases connected to the computer, the frequency sets on each base are automatically changed to allow the simultaneous communication of 32 sensors. The user is required to re-pair each sensor to use these new communication frequencies. Similarly, when reverting to the use of a single base, the communication frequency set will be restored to the option selected by the user (Set A, B, C, or D) and the sensors must again be re-paired. Synchronization All channels of data collected in a tandem configuration are fully synchronized between the two bases. 31 User Interface User interface options are expanded to reflect the presence of additional sensors. Figure 26. The Status Console when tandem bases are used. 32 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Maintenance and Care Trigno 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 ground 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. Trigno Base Station The Trigno System is designed to provide years of reliable service when proper care is followed. While the Base Station enclosure is made of durable plastic, the following points should be kept in mind during its use and handling: • The device and its accessories should be visually inspected before every use to ensure that no mechanical deterioration has occurred. • The Base Station can be easily cleaned with a 70% solution of isopropyl alcohol if necessary. DO NOT EXPOSE THE BASE STATION TO ANY LIQUID. IT IS NOT A SEALED DEVICE. 33 • The units are not shockproof and should not be dropped or be subjected to excessive forces or accelerations. The recharging Base Station is not water-resistant. Under no circumstance should this unit be exposed to water or any other type of liquids. 34 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Specifications Trigno Sensors GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS Typical Operating Range (1) 40 m RF Frequency Band 2400-2480 MHz (ISM band) Power Consumption <65 mW Case Dimension 27 x 37 x 15 mm (2) Full-charge Operation Time Recharge Time (3) 8 hours <2.5 hours Mass < 15g Auto Shut-down timer 300 seconds Temperature Range(4) 5 - 50 degrees Celsius (1) (2) (3) (4) Range is characterized in open office environments.

Optimal battery performance is obtained when the device is operated at room temperature. Note that the stated Operation Time reflects the expected performance of a fully charged new battery used in a sensor that is transmitting data. Operation Time is expected to decrease as a function of charge cycles, and when the sensor is searching for a network. 80% of original battery capacity is maintained after 300 discharge/recharge cycles or after 2 years if recharge cycles are less than 300. These values represent typical expectations under normal conditions. Actual performance will vary depending on usage conditions. Operation beyond these temperature limits may damage the rechargeable battery. EMG SENSOR SPECIFICATIONS Range(1) Resolution (EMG Signal) 11 mV (r.t.i.)

TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide Appendix I Mains Isolation The Trigno Base Station is provided with Medical Grade isolated power supply which is compliant with IEC60601 series of harmonized standards for Medical Devices. However, full compliance with IEC60601-1 Basic Safety for Medical Devices requires that the PC operating the software be isolated as well. This stems from the basic requirement to have all patients electrically isolated from equipment within their reach, and since the PC running the Trigno Software is conceivably within their reach, it too must be isolated. Delsys does not supply isolation transformers for Personal Computers and their peripherals. Delsys recommends model IS1000HG manufactured by Tripp Lite (www.tripplite.com) for this task. This device is a medial grade isolation transformer capable of delivering up to 1000 W. A smaller similar version for 500W is also available (IS500HG). Similar products compliant with IEC60601-1 are acceptable. 39 Appendix II DC-A22 Unterminated Output Cable The DC-A22 Unterminated Output Cable provides access to all 64 analog output channels from the Trigno System on discrete wires for data acquisition systems with screw-type terminations. The DC-A22 cable connects directly to the output connector labeled "1-64"on the Trigno System and terminates in 67 signal conductors with pre-stripped ends (64 analog output signals and 3 GND conductors). Each conductor employs a unique color scheme to identify its signal. The conductor jacket is the primary color, and it is marked with a secondary color. An example of the coloring scheme is shown in Figure 27 below. White / Black Black / White Figure 27. Wire color scheme example. Installation Refer to Figure 28 for installing the DC-A22 cable. Please observe the following points: • Connect the GND wires to the data acquisition system ground for analog inputs. It is recommended to twist all three wires together and connect these to a common ground point on the measurement system to avoide the risk of creating ground loops. • Ensure that any unused conductors are not exposed and will not come into contact with each other or any other signal or voltage potential. This can be done by clipping the bare ends of the conductors or using heat shrink tubing or electrical tape to enclose the bare ends. 40 TrignoTM Wireless System User’s Guide DC-A22 Conductor Assignments Trigno Output Trigno Pin Conductor Color Primary / Secondary Trigno Output Trigno Pin Conductor Color Primary / Secondary EMG 1 68 Violet / Orange AY 9 16 Tan / Violet AX 1 67 Blue / Orange AZ 9 17 Tan / Gray AY 1 33 Orange / Blue EMG 10 49 Blue / Tan AZ 1 34 Orange / Violet AX 10 48 Green / Tan EMG 2 66 Green / Orange AY 10 14 Tan / Green AX 2 65 Yellow / Orange AZ 10 15 Tan / Blue AY 2 31 Orange / Yellow EMG 11 47 Yellow / Tan Orange / Tan AZ 2 32 Orange / Green AX 11 46 EMG 3 64 Gray / Pink AY 11 12 Tan / Orange AX 3 63 Violet / Pink AZ 11 13 Tan / Yellow AY 3 29 Pink / Violet EMG 12 45 Pink / Tan AZ 3 30 Pink / Gray AX 12 44 Brown / Tan EMG 4 62 Blue / Pink AY 12 10 Tan / Brown AX 4 61 Green / Pink AZ 12 11 Tan / Pink AY 4 27 Pink / Green EMG 13 42 Violet / White AZ 4 28 Pink / Blue AX 13 41 Blue / White EMG 5 60 Yellow / Pink AY 13 White / Blue AX 5 59 Orange / Pink AZ 13 White / Violet AY 5 25 Pink / Orange EMG 14 40 Green / White Yellow / White AZ 5 26 Pink / Yellow AX 14 39 EMG 6 58 Gray / Brown AY 14 White / Yellow AX 6 57 Violet / Brown AZ 14 White / Green AY 6 23 Brown / Violet EMG 15 38 Orange / White AZ 6 24 Brown / Gray AX 15 37 Pink / White EMG 7 55 Green / Brown AY 15 White / Pink AX 7 54 Yellow / Brown AZ 15 White / Orange AY 7 20 Brown / Yellow EMG 16 36 Brown / White AZ 7 21 Brown / Green AX 16 35 Tan / White EMG 8 53 Orange / Brown AY 16 White / Tan AX 8 52 Pink / Brown AZ 16 White / Brown AY 8 18 Brown / Pink GND White / Gray AZ 8 19 Brown / Orange GND 22 Brown / Blue EMG 9 51 Gray / Tan GND 43 Gray / White AX 9 50 Violet / Tan NC 56 Blue / Brown Figure 28.
