T1=0.5ミリ秒
T2=1000ミリ秒
T3=30分
T4=7日(10,080分)
A1=20ボルト(1KΩに対して)又は20ミリアンペア(mA)
T1=0.1〜2.0ミリ秒(ms)
T2=67〜1000ミリ秒(15Hz〜1Hz)
T3=10〜60分

A1=1〜25mA
である場合、デバイスは続けて「トリガセッション」に入り、そして、患者は初期治療を受ける。振幅がゼロ
の間の「振幅設定」中に磁石が外される場合、デバイスはシェルフモードに戻る。
、デバイスはスリープ状態に入る。スリープ状態から、デバイスは、セッション間隔時間が有効期間(TI)になると、自動セッション状態に自動的に入る。自動セッションによって、セッション時間(TS)の間、設定振幅で刺激パルスが搬送され、デバイスはスリープ状態に戻る。この実施形態では、一旦、自動セッションが開始されれば、完全な治療セッションが搬送されるために、磁石は効力を有さない。
