The M2A™ Capsule starts immediately after its removal
from the proximity of the magnet in the blister and the
consequent closing of the magnetic switch in the capsule.
After a brief (less than one minute) test by the physician to
verify that the capsule is active, the capsule is ingested by the
patient. While active, the capsule transmits images at a rate of
2 images per second. For each image, an illuminating light
flash of 100ms is applied with the illuminating LEDs. When
the battery power is depleted, the transmitter disables the
imager and switches the M2A™ Capsule off.
