Power Selection & Bias

Category: Advanced Settings

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.

Power Levels

The currently selected power mode is displayed on all program screens as a ‘L’, ‘H’ or ‘D’.

 

Dynamic Mode

2B Output Range

 

Dynamic mode merges the power settings of Low and High to create a single power setting that at low values is similar to low values on ‘L’ and at high values is similar to ‘H’ settings, so in dynamic mode there is no need to switch between ‘L’ and ‘H’. The actual level is dependent on the tracking source selected, So a selected source will ‘bias’ the power setting. Setting of the bias source is via a menu option and the options are

Max The maximum channel value shown is used. So if Channel A is set to 10% and Channel B is set to 80% the bias source will be B.

Avg The Average of Channel A and Channel B are used.

A Channel A is used

B Channel B is used.
