programmed maximum values for
extension and flexion for three cycles
and then stops. in this phase, motor b is
disabled (symbol for motor b: OFF)
• Then motor b will move to the pro-
grammed maximum values for prona-
tion and supination for one cycle and
stops, then the full cycle will start over
with motor A. Motor A is disabled while
motor b is operating (symbol for motor
A: OFF)
• The stop position at the end of the last
cycle (for both extension/flexion and
pronation/supination) can be selected
in steps of 25% between 0% and 100%
of the programmed maximum range of
motion.
• steps 1 and 2 can be repeated as often
as needed. You can stop treatment
with the sTOP key; after the pro-
grammed therapy duration, it will stop
automatically.
during warm-up, the display will show
the symbol in the upper, left-
hand corner.
Default: disabled
Follow these steps to program the special
function:
• Access menu level 4, then press the
parameter key to select the special func-
tion .
The display will indicate:
- the symbol representing the special
function
- the status of the special function (circle
with or without check mark)
- two boxes with the current percentage
of the stop positions for motor A and b
- a check mark in a circle.
• You activate the function with the "+"
key and deactivate it with the "-" key.
in this case it is not possible to activate/
deactive the function by pressing the
parameter key again.
A check mark in the circle identifies the
activated function.
• next press the parameter key of the
isolation protocol. The marking moves
to the upper percentage value, allowing
you to enter the stop position for
motor A.

• To modify the value, press the "+" (plus)
or "-" (minus) key.
select 75 %, for instance.
• Press the parameter key again when
done. The marking automatically moves
to the lower box, allowing you to adjust
the stop position of motor b.
• To modify the value, press the "+" (plus)
or "-" (minus) key.
select 25 %, for instance.
• save the programmed values by pressing
the STOP key, then press the START key
to begin the treatment.
This is what happens:
Extension/flexion is treated three times
first (motor A). Motor b is positioned at 25
% of the programmed range of motion for
pronation and supination.
subsequently, pronation/supination is
treated once (motor b). Motor A is posi-
tioned at 75 % of the programmed range of
motion for extension and flexion.
Note!
The percentage values can be modi-
fied only when the special function is
enabled (check mark).
n Total therapy time
under menu item "total therapy time"
you can view each patient's total
therapy time (duration of all the
patient's therapy sessions).
Deleting the stored therapy time:
Press and hold the parameter key for
5 seconds or select the "new patient"
function.
n Extension/flexion therapy documen-
tation
This is a special function of the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact which
allows the entire therapy documenta-
tion to be represented.
The carriage run times as well as the
range of motion of the sessions are
recorded.
The collected data are presented graph-
ically in the form of a coordinate system
(X-axis = range of motion / Y-axis =
time) where the upper curve illustrates
the trend of the flexion movement and
the lower curve the trend of the exten-
sion movement.
n Pronation/supination therapy docu-
mentation
This is a special function of the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact which
allows the entire therapy documenta-
tion to be represented.
The carriage run times as well as the
range of motion of the sessions are
recorded.
The collected data are presented graph-
ically in the form of a coordinate system
(X-axis = range of motion / Y-axis =
time) where the upper curve illustrates
the trend of the supination movement
and the lower curve the trend of the
pronation movement.

LEVEL 5:
n Stretching in extension
with the special "stretching in exten-
sion" function the joint will be gently
stretched (arm stretching movement).
Only the extension/flexion movement
is treated here. Motor b is automatically
disabled. The position of motor b cannot
be changed once this special function
has been activated.
starting at the middle position the
carriage will first move to the pro-
grammed flexion limit and then to the
programmed extension limit.
subsequently the carriage reverses 5 °
towards flexion and then moves very
slowly back to the programmed exten-
sion value (symbol: ). subsequently
the carriage attempts to attain another
5 ° at an even slower speed (symbol: ).
if a high resistance toward the ad-
ditional 5 ° is sensed, the reverse on
load function is automatically activated
and the carriage moves in the opposite
direction.
This stretch cycle is repeated ten times.
After that the carriage moves to the
programmed flexion limit and restarts
the stretching in extension cycle.
This sequence can be repeated as often
as needed. You can stop treatment
with the sTOP key; after the pro-
grammed therapy duration, it will stop
automatically.
