A list of pre-dened STIM types appears.
5. Select a STIM type from the list.
6. Click to close the panel.
The system saves the probe name.
The following is an example of a pulse width and rate adjustment performed on the Pulse Width and Rate panels.

Note: If you selected a Nervassure procedure, then the Stimulator 2 Rate adjustment will be located on the Nervassure Tab.
In the Stimulation advanced settings, the user can change the pulse type which alters the polarity of pulses generated by the
stimulator. Selecting any of the biphasic options enables an Interphase Delay option to appear. Interphase Delay changes the time
between pulses of dierent polarities during a single period. The user can also adjust the train count – number of repetitions of a
pulse for each polarity that occur within a single period. Selecting any train count (the number of pulses in a series of pulses) higher
than one enables an Interpulse Interval. The Interpulse Interval changes the time between pulses that occur in the same polarity.
The following is an example of these adjustments.
