Put; some multimeters may give dif- forent readings With intermittent mode selected, you should see the voltage changing from OV to a higher reading, Using TENS Connect the electrodes to the TENS unit using the 2.5mm plug to2x 2mm probe load as supplied with the alec- trodas. If you wish to make your own leads, the 2mm probes are available from Dick Smith Electronics (Cat.

They can be attached to the skin using any of the variety of tapes used to secure wound dress- ings. Attach the electrodes in position on either side of the pain source. Before switching on the TENS Unit be sure that the voltage is tumed down tothe minimum.
