E-Stim Basics

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

What is E-Stim

E-Stim is simply using electricity to stimulate parts of the body. Using a dedicated E-Stim unit, rather than a TENS or home build device ensures you can play safely and gives you a much wide range of sensations to enjoy.

 

What do you need?

In order for E-Stim to work you need, a power unit, an electrode and a cable to connect the two together. The power box generates the signals that create the sensation. The electrode connects that sensation into or onto the body, depending on what the electrode is. Electrodes can be used on the surface of the skin, or inserted into the lower orifices.

E-Stim requires two points of contact. The current and thus the sensation flows between these two points and you then feel the sensation.

 

Keep Safe - Play below the waist

Generally we say play below the waist until you understand the issues and risks involved with play above the waist. Remember crossing current from hand to hand can run across the chest and is thus something we would not recommend you do.

 

Starting to Play

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Step 1

Read this manual and familiarise yourself with the controls. 

 

Step 2

Install a battery

 

Step 3

Turn the 2B on. (The power slide switch can be found on the bottom of the control unit). The display should light up and the 2B will go through its self test. You should now see a screen like this

Pulse Mode

Now turn the 2B off. If for some reason you see a different display, then you can perform a Factory Reset to get everything back to the default state. 

 

Step 4

Choose electrodes. The 2B is supplied with a simple set of Sticky pad electrodes and 2mm cables to get you started, but we do offer an ever increasing range of E-Stim Electrodes and accessories. See https://www.e-stim.co.uk and https://www.e-stimsystems.com for more details.

 

Step 5

Connect things up. Always ensure the 2B is switched off when connecting or disconnecting electrodes.

 

Step 6 and 7 and 8 .......

Turn the 2B back on

Now you can start experimenting with the modes

 

User Controls and Display

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

The 2B unit has five user controls. Each control allows the user to adjust a particular aspect of the output. It is the operation of the controls in combination that will allow the user to provide an effective electro-stimulation session.

 

2b controls

The controls are (from left to right)

Channel A Level Control

The Select Button

The Adjust Control

Channel B Level Control

There is also a power slide switch (on the bottom side of the unit) and an LCD contrast control (accessed from the rear of the unit.)

 

Channel Level Controls

The channel level controls adjust the absolute level of the output of the relevant channel.  Each Channel control value is displayed on the LCD screen, with values from OFF (0) to MAX (100%). OFF is zero output, MAX is full output. The output levels automatically drop to OFF when selecting a mode, and will always start off at OFF (0%) when selecting a new mode.

 

Select Button

The select button is used in conjunction with the Adjust control, to change and adjust the settings in all the various modes, including changing and selecting the modes themselves. The Select Button responds to a light press, there is no need to press too hard. Pressing and holding the Select Button while rotating the Adjust Control allows further adjustments of the Feel in many modes.

 

Adjust Control

The adjust control is used in conjunction with the select button, to change and adjust the settings in all the various modes, including changing the modes themselves. 

Depending on the mode, the 'C' and 'D' values can be adjusted using the Adjustment Control. Turning the Adjustment Control either clockwise or anticlockwise will change the 'C' adjustment value up or down, while pressing and holding the select button and turning the Adjustment Control which change the value of the 'D' setting. Not all modes use both the C and D values.

 

Displays

The 2B has 3 display elements, the bright backlight LCD display, giving the user details of all of the functions of the 2B, from control settings to helpful messages.

The two blue LEDs on the right hand side of the unit illuminate in proportion to the intensity of the relevant output. The LEDs might appear to glow slightly when the unit is turned on and there is no output - this is due to the internal reflection of the backlight and is not a fault.

The LCD display depends on the mode but the basics are:-

Top Line

showing the Mode, (the current program mode) and Adjust Values (Dependant on the Mode, the first value is altered by the Adjust Control Knob and the second value by Select + Adjust Control Knob)

Bottom Line

Showing the Level of Channel A, Join Control Status , Current Output Map, Power Mode, Battery Level (if not using Mains Adaptor) and the current Level of Channel B

 

Power Level Display

The Power Level Display shows the current power level the 2B is set to. Options are L - Low, H for High and D for Dynamic. For more details on the power level selection system see Power Selection

level display

 

Battery Level

The Battery Level Display shows the current battery level. The more the battery is empty the lower the charge. If the 2B is connected to the mains then the battery will not be displayed

battery option

 

 

 

Adjusting Contrast

To change the contrast of the LCD, turn the unit over, and with a small insulated cross head screwdriver insert into the hole in the rear of the unit and gently adjust the cross head adjustment inside. Adjustments should not be necessary as the contrast is set during testing in the workshops.

How to Fit the Battery

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

The 2B is powered by a single 9V PP3 alkaline battery.  Although it is technically possible to use rechargeable batteries with the 2B we do not recommend them as they almost always have issues with power delivery. If you are seeking more power, then we strongly suggest you consider using the optional mains power supply. 

We do NOT recommend the use of Zinc Carbon batteries with your 2B control unit.

 

  • Ensure the unit is switched off, and any electrodes are disconnected.
  • Turn the unit over and using a small screwdriver or a fingernail inserted into the battery compartment slot, gently prise the battery compartment cover out. 

 

 <Pictures to follow>

 

Remove the old battery (if fitted) and replace with a fresh Alkaline PP3. The battery connector is polarized so it should not be possible to connect the battery incorrectly, but ensure the polarity is correct before attempting connection.

 

  • Place the battery into the unit and replace the battery compartment cover. The cover is fitted with two tabs which insert into the lower half of the case first, and then the top half of the cover will clip into position.
  • Turn the unit over. The unit is now ready for operation.
  • Please note we do NOT recommend the use of zinc carbon or rechargeable batteries due to their general poor performance with the later firmware versions..

 In the event the 2B unit is not being used for a period of time, remove the battery to avoid any potential damage from battery leakage.


Battery Level

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

The battery level indicator shows the current level of the battery. There are 4 battery level symbols, indicating Battery FULL, 2/3 full, 1/3 full, and Battery empty. If you have plugged in the optional mains power supply then the battery symbol will not display. As the 2B uses a standard alkaline 9V PP3 battery, a brand new battery should show full*, however the unit will continue to operate with ‘flat’ batteries with a reduced output. This is designed to allow you to make the most out of a battery.

If your 2B starts to reset itself when higher power levels are selected, then this is generally a sign the battery might need replacing.

The battery level display will update whenever a control is adjusted. Due to processor constraints the battery symbol does not display in the Audio Modes.

*Because of the variations in battery manufacturing technology, a brand new battery may not necessarily display a full battery symbol.

Click this link for details on how to change the battery

 

When the E-Stim Systems mains power supply is plugged in, No battery symbol is displayed. 

Power and Waveforms

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Its not all about Power

Power seems to be a major target for many people when purchasing an e-stim unit, but without the understanding of how power relates to play it is difficult to ensure you get the most out of any unit. Units that quote a straight power output such as 80mA are generally TENS based units that give no indication how the generated  waveform actually provides the sensation of power delivery. Like a racing car, power is not just down to horse power  but is related to how it is delivered.

The 2B is considered to be a powerful unit, but if you want even more power, then consider the optional power supply, which will give you around 30% more than battery alone.


Modes for Variety

The 2B has number program modes designed for pleasure and stronger sensations. Don't be surprised if the modes don't give you want you straight away. Nothing ever everything works for everyone, at least on the default settings, so experiment. Because of the way we have designed the wave forms, not every mode will provide you with sensation at the same point, nor will every mode give you the sensation that someone else feels, even with the same settings. E-Stim is a complex subject almost like an art form for many, and it can take practice to find our what you enjoy. Enjoy the journey.

 

Waveforms created for Sensation

E-Stim interacts with the nervous system of the body in order to provide a sensation. This means that the nature of the waveform is crucial, providing maximum sensation to the nerves, but with a reduced amount of energy that can cause heating and damage to underlying tissues. All E-Stim Systems devices utilise AC based wave forms so there is no issues with DC causing tissue damage, and the waveforms are developed to maximise the sensation as effectively as possible. 


Feel

All of our modes have some control over feel. Feel adjusts portions of the waveform to give to a difference in feel, from soft and spiky at one end, to harsh and hard at the other. The choice is down to you.


Power Control

Power delivery depends on the unit itself, the power source (using a 2B with a power supply with give an increased sensation of power), the Levels set, the settings of the adjustments, the current mode, Box level, output map, electrodes used and electrode positioning. All of these elements combine to give you a wide range of sensation from a tickle up to and beyond a hard throbbing pulse.

Power Levels

The 2B operates in 3 main power settings, with each level having a 0-100% setting. Low Power, is the default, High Power exists for more experienced players and Dynamic Power gives the benefit of both, but with a lessened control range, with the power output determined by the Channel Settings. For more details on the Power Systems follow the Power Systems Link

 

Output Maps

As well as the Power Level (Low, High and Dynamic), the 2B has a series of Output Maps. These user selectable maps give even more variety to the output of a 2B. more details on the output map system can be found in the Output Maps section.

 

 

Inputs and Outputs

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Outputs

Connection to any electrode is via two heavy duty 3.5mm mono jack sockets. Ensure the 2B is switched off before inserting or removing the connector to eliminate the possibility of either inadvertent electric shocks or short circuits occurring. When removing the connectors. Grip the insulated shaft of the connector, not the wire and gently pull. 

Connections to your E-Stim 2B use industry standard 3.5mm mono jack plugs, compatible with a number of other manufacturers control units and electrodes.

<picture>

 

Inputs

<picture>

Connection to audio devices and the digital link system is via the centre 3.5mm stereo jack socket. Ensure the 2B is switched off before inserting or removing the connector to eliminate the possibility of short circuits occurring. When removing the connectors. Grip the shaft of the connector, not the wire and gently pull. 

 Ensure that audio devices or the digital link are only connected to the centre jack socket. Connecting to either of the output jack sockets will destroy your audio unit. The audio input is designed to operate with low level headphone style outputs. It is not possible to operate the Digital Link at the same time as the Audio Input. The Digital link cable despite appearances is NOT a standard USB cable. DO NOT attempt to attach any other USB cable to the 2B digital link input, you will destroy your 2B and invalidate your guarantee.

DO NOT attempt to connect an output to an input. It will destroy your 2B unit, and possibly the item you connect to.

External Power

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

It is possible to use an external power supply with the 2B, but because of the isolation and safety issues when connecting to the mains we strongly recommend you only use an E-Stim Systems supplied universal power supply. The plug socket is beside the on off switch.

Always ensure that when you connect the external power unit, the 2B is switched off.

Insert the plug into the socket, switch the mains power on, then switch the 2B on. The display should light up as if batteries were fitted.

Use of the power supply will offer around a 30% Power increase.

 

When the power supply is connected, the Display will no longer show a battery symbol, as the 2B is no longer running off Battery.

Fire Mode

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Fire mode is designed to emulate the Fire mode on the ElectroHelix. It allows you to FIRE or Zap the subject connected to the outputs, for a long as the Select Button is pressed. You can choose the output or outputs. The Output Level is controlled by the standard output level controls.

Wave Mode

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

The output level increases from 0% to the selected limit and then instantly drops back to 0% The adjustment control controls how fast the level goes up, with values from 1 to 99. The second value, is the pulse feel, that allows you to adjust the sensation of the pulse stream, from soft to spiky, with values from 1 to 99. With different values for the left and right channels levels, it is possibly to adjust the synchronicity of the outputs, with one channel rising and dropping faster than the other.

 

Since the cycle runs from 0% to what ever level you have set, say 33%, the cycle will be shorter and thus faster with smaller level values. So 0-10% will appear to cycle faster than 0-50%.

 

TIP : If you want both channels to cycle together with the same settings, use the Join Controls Option before you set the mode.

To Select Wave Mode

To select the Wave Mode, press the Select Button once and rotate the Adjust Control to select the mode

Changing Values

In Wave mode the output rises from 0% to the currently selected Level for the channel and then drops back to 0% before repeating again.

So if Channel A is set to 10%, then the level will increase from 0% to 10% in a number of steps and then instantly dropping back to 0%. The speed of the increase is controlled by the Adjust Control and the Ramp Speed Option. Because the channel drives are independent, it is possible to have one channel rising and dropping at a different rate to the other. As Wave cycles between zero and the Channel level set, there is no output with levels set to 2% or below.

The rate of change is from around 1 second to 0.02 seconds with Time Warp set to x1, increasing to around 35 seconds to 0.5 seconds with Time Warp set to x32 The amount of each step is controlled by the Ramp Speed setting.

 

Waterfall Mode

Stereo Mode

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Stereo anmate

The stereo input allows you to use the line in input to stimulate the outputs, from a source such as a CD/MP3 players. The left audio channel activates the A output channel, the level indicated by the A: and the left hand bar graph, whilst the B channel level is indicated by the B: and the right hand bar graph the right audio channel activates the B output channel. The bargraph display indicates the relative input level of each channel.

 Do NOT connect your audio device to the 2B before switching to any audio input

 

How it works

The A and B controls control the percentage of the audio drive that is passed through to the outputs. The relationship between the Input and the output is complex as we use a unique DSP (Digital Signal Processor) to provide you with a more interesting output compared to StereoStim devices.

The adjust control allows you to change the speed of the response of the stereo system, indicated by the third value. A low value gives a smoother response, a higher values gives a sharper response.

You should aim for maximum movement in the bar graph. If the bar graphs are ‘full’ you should reduce the output volume of the device you are driving the 2B with, if there appears to be no bar graph then turn the volume control up.

Microphone Mode

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

Mic anmate

The Microphone Mode uses the internal microphone to stimulate the outputs. As the internal microphone is a mono source, both the outputs are stimulated together. The stereo bargraph display indicates the relative input level. The A and B controls control the percentage of the input from the microphone that is passed through to the outputs, and the Adjust Control set the level at which the 2B will respond to the  outputs. A low adjust level will make the 2B more responsive.

Mic anmate

The display shows two bargraphs on the top line, together with the Adjust Level Control. The bottom line shows the Channel A output Level, the Current Output Map. the Microphone sensitivity setting, and the Channel B level. The battery status is not show in audio modes.

The built in microphone has no external connections, and is sensitive enough to pickup a conversation (depending on what level the microphone is set to) from several feet away. Obviously this depends on the ambient level of sound. The placement of the microphone is close to the channel A control knob.

 

Microphone Adjustment

The Microphone Adjust control changes the response of the  DSP (Digital Signal Processor) system, giving you even more control over the response of the Microphone. Because the DSP code is designed to create sensation from complex audio sources such as music or your voice, the effects of the adjust control will vary depending on the audio used.

 

Overdriving

It is possible to overdrive the audio section of the 2B. This results in a reduction of sensation as the nuances of the audio input are lost. If the display appears to be a solid bar, then you are probably overdriving the 2B. Either move the 2B away from the audio source, or change the Microphone Level selection.

Output Maps

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

What is an output map?

Output maps are a way of offering a different response between the control level and the output level. Some people want more control at one end, others want more control at higher levels, and some might want something in the middle. Many modern cars have a similar system - allowing the car to be more responsive for 'Sport' driving or provide more torque for off roading. Another way of looking at output maps is think if the gears in the car - the engine revs over a fixed range, but the gears provide changes in torque, so first gear allows you to pull away, while fifth gear allows you to cruise, all from the same engine.

 

output maps

 

With the 2B we offer 3 output maps, where the level set on the display (66%) ‘maps’ to a specific level feeling for each level chosen. This means you can select a map more suited to the sensations you enjoy. Map A will give a linear response and feels more powerful, faster, Map B starts slower giving people who want more control over the lower end, and Map C is similar to the classic 2.106 firmware. The maps can also feel different depending on what power setting you are using. The human body does not respond to E-Stim in a linear manner - 40% will not feel twice as powerful as 20%, so it is a case of experiment and find out what works for you. 

The image above is a rough graphical representation to indicate different maps - it is not accurate!!.

 

To Change the Output Map

Power Selection & Bias

WARNING THIS IS A BETA RELEASE MANUAL NOT FOR 2.106 FIRMWARE

The 2B is capable of operating in multiple power levels, indicated by a ‘L’ , ‘H’ or ‘D’ in the display (centre bottom line). This gives you a wide range of play compared to single level units as each power setting is controllable from 0-100%. These is some overlap between low and High, so experiment to find a level suitable for your needs.If you don't want the risk of going too high, then stick to using the LOW setting. If you want the flexibility of using the entire range of the 2B, then Dynamic is what you should consider.

Don't forget than using an E-Stim Systems Power supply will automatically give you around a 30% increase in power, and will last far longer than a battery.
