BEFORE YOU START
Take a moment to reflect on the advantages of the BTL-4000 Electrical Stimulation, Ultrasound, Laser and Magnet technology in your own clinic. The BTL-4000 system has many benefits not available in other systems. For an example, a choice of therapy protocols offers maximum flexibility in a variety of clinical applications.
The combination electrical stimulation / ultrasound / laser or magnet therapy system also offers substantial benefits since it eliminates the need to purchase separate units. We sincerely believe the latest BTL physiotherapy system is technically superior to any other physiotherapy products available and will provide years of trouble-free and profitable use.
All of us at BTL wish you every success with your BTL-4000 system. We pride ourselves on being as responsive as possible to our customers’ needs. Your suggestions and comments are always welcome since we believe an ongoing relationship with our customers is critically important to our future product line. Please call or email us your suggestions.
While we would like you to start using your equipment right away, we encourage you to thoroughly read this manual in order to fully understand the operational features of the BTL-4000 system.
Again, thank you for being a BTL customer. In the event of any problem, or if you require service, please make an initial call to your local distributor, who will decide whether to refer the problem to our office.

1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The BTL-4000 Series offers advanced and well designed physiotherapy units for professional use. Depending on the required configuration, each system can consist of up to two units with combinations - for electrotherapy, ultrasound, laser or magnet therapy treatment.
The modular design of the BTL-4000 equipment allows you to build the combination you require. Combine an electrotherapy unit of your choice with either ultrasound, laser or magnet all in a single unit. This can save considerable money in your physiotherapy investment.
Selecting a diagnosis from a list of alphabetically organized treatment protocols, or selecting a program, will make an easy and efficient start of the therapy. Naturally, you can adjust any treatment parameter manually by the simple use of the unit keys and buttons. Throughout the whole therapy, the display informs you about the remaining therapy time, channel and therapeutic method used, the type of therapy applied, attached accessories, and other necessary data.
If several accessories are attached to your unit at the same time, you can easily recognize the accessory required for a specific treatment. Select a treatment on the display (electrotherapy, ultrasound, laser or magnet), and the control light on the corresponding accessory (electrotherapy cable, ultrasound head, or magnet disc / double disc / linear or solenoid applicator) will start blinking to indicate that this accessory should be used.
Save your time by using the pre-programming of the BTL-4000 units. Based on detailed research and practical use of the units, the well-organized pre-programmed protocols will give you recommendations for treating various conditions. The unit also includes up to 50 free lots to define your own protocols. Moreover, you can recall the last 20 treatments.
Prepare your own protocols and later invoke them from easily accessible option.
With every BTL unit, you can purchase a cart specially designed for BTL products. Its versatile design allows you to conveniently store and use 1 or 2 physiotherapy units and a vacuum unit. The cart includes a range of accessory trays and baskets. Four well-built and steady castors ensure easy movement of the unit in the office or hospital.
Please visit our corporate website at http://www.btlnet.com for the latest information on BTL products and services.

2.4UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
Inspect the box for damage and report any damage to the carrier and your distributor. Do not proceed with installation and assembly if the box is damaged.
Unpack the equipment and place it on a stable horizontal surface suitable for the equipment's weight, out of reach of sunlight. During the operation the equipment gets warm, therefore it must not be located close to heatproducing devices. Cooling of the equipment is provided by forced air circulation. Cooling vents are located on the rear panel and at the bottom of the equipment and must not be covered. Place the equipment so, that the free space behind the rear side is at least 10 cm. Do not position the equipment on a soft surface which may obstruct air flow to the bottom cooling vents. Do not put any heat-producing devices or objects containing water or other liquid on the equipment. Do not place the equipment close to devices producing strong electromagnetic, electric or magnetic field (diathermy, X-rays, etc.), as equipment electronics could be undesirably influenced. In case of any questions, please call your distributor or service agent.
The same installation conditions should be observed for the Adapter 60W / Adapter 90W power supply adapter.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE | PAGE 8 OF 62
Retain the original packaging to ensure future possible transportation of the device.
Plug the device into the mains socket by means of the Adapter 60W / Adapter 90W power supply adapter (see chapter Technical Parameters).
PLUG THE POWER SUPPLY ADAPTER DIRECTLY INTO THE MAINS SOCKET; DO NOT USE ANY MULTICONNECTION EXTENSION CABLE OR ADAPTOR.
In case of any questions, please call your distributor or service agent.
Switching the device on:
Connect the power supply adapter to the device and plug its mains cable into the mains socket, switch the I/ 0 rocker switch (19) on the rear panel to the I position and finally press the ON/OFF switch (26) on the front panel. The system will then run a self-test. If the self-test finds no faults, the screen will display the equipment type and it is ready for use - see note below.
Connection of accessories
Connect the accessories to the output connectors (1) - (6) on the rear panel in this way:
Put in the cable connector and secure the fluted ring by pressing and turning in clockwise. ATTENTION WHEN DISCONNECTING THE CONNECTOR, first of all, it is necessary to take by the fingers the fluted ring NOT THE WHOLE connector. TURN THE FLUTED RING ANTICLOCKWISE and then after releasing the ring, disconnect the connector by pulling the fluted ring still held in the fingers!
ATTENTION!!! DO NOT TURN THE WHOLE CONNECTOR USING FORCE, THE DEVICE COULD BE DAMAGED.
For configuration of the output connectors (1) to (6), see the table Configuration of Output Connectors
The unit will automatically detect the accessories type and display it on the screen. If a wrong one is connected, the equipment will not operate and the screen will display a warning and help about where to connect which accessory.
Recharging the accumulator
The device accumulator is sold in half-charged status. That is why we recommend formatting the accumulator after purchase of the device: connect the device to the mains via the external adapter for at least 48 hours without interruption, with the mains rocker switch (18) in position I. The device will be recharged and the accumulator will be properly formatted. A properly formatted accumulator enables longer operation of the device without mains supply. For details, see the chapter Accumulator.
Restart of the device - reset
If for any reason (electromagnetic interference, etc.) the device stops responding to the user's commands and the message "please wait..." with small moving squares is not displayed, the device can be put into the initial state by simultaneously pressing the prog (9) and menu (11) keys. After this, the device immediately goes into the initial status as well as after switch-on of power supply.
The mains switch (19) on the rear panel has the same effect – the whole device switches off; however, we recommend using the above described combination of keys prog + menu which is more friendly to the electronics of the device.
Note:
After switching on, the unit tests for about 10 - 15 secs all internal functions. If any fault exists, the screen will display a warning. If any fault that compromises patient safety exists, the system will 'lock' itself into ‘secure’ mode. If this situation occurs, please call your local distributor for service advice.

How many patients and which outputs you can simultaneously connect to can be seen on the display after pressing the menu key, in menu / accessories / connectors – information.
2.5 OPERATING THE UNIT
The display contains several graphic elements. Some of them are only for information, some can be activated. The basic elements are the following:
•buttons (it is possible to activate them by the tab key (15) and to change their values.) The activated buttons are displayed inversely.
•information texts
•channel tabs (switching between the tabs, selection)
The buttons can be enabled or disabled. The disabled buttons are crossed out.
All the displayed enabled buttons can be successively activated by pressing the tab key (15). By repeated pressing of this key further buttons on the screen are successively activated.
If the button contains one numeric value, this value can be directly changed by the select/intensity knob (12). If the button contains more numeric values or an item selected from a list, pressing of the enter key (13) opens the detailed subscreen of the button. In the bottom right corner of the selected parameters screens there is a button shaped like a folded corner of paper. It has the same function as the NEXT key (16) and opens the parameters subscreens. To leave the subcscreen press esc (14) – all data you have changed will remain changed.
Information texts
The text is displayed directly on the display, in a menu or in a button. If a text is too long and does not fit on the display in full, after a while it starts scrolling automatically.
Selected channel
Although most of the devices of the BTL-4000 Series can run more therapies at a time, only one channel can be controlled at the particular moment. That channel is called the "selected channel". The tab of the "selected channel" in the bottom part of the screen is coloured dark. All information on the screen and all controls are relate to this channel. The most important information about the therapies on the other channels remains visible on their tabs.

Besides the initial information, this screen contains channel tabs with description of the connected accessories. The number of channels – tabs depends on the required configuration of the device. To display all information of the channel press key 1 (17) or 2 (18) under the tab. The information set on the "invisible channels" remain preserved. The following scheme shows that almost the entire screen is available for the "selected channel".
Keys 1(17) and 2(18) located directly under the tabs serve for switching between the tabs.
On the channels where more accessories can be connected to one generator (ultrasound generator and two ultrasound heads, laser generator and laser probes, magnet generator and magnet applicators), repeated pressing of the tab's key serves for switching between these accessories.
The tab of the channel which is selected (i.e. its information is just on the display) is black.
Examples of information on the tabs:
tab of the selected E channel, to which no accessory is connected
tab of the E channel, which is not selected, with connected accessory BTL-236-2
tab of the U generator , which is not selected, with connected ultrasound head; pressing of keys 1 (17) and 2 (18) under the tab serves for switching between the connected heads – 1 cm2/4 cm2
tab of the selected L generator with connected laser probe; pressing of keys 1 (17) and 2 (18) under the tab serves for switching between the connected probes– 685nm/830nm (red/infrared)
tab of selected M generator with connected disc applicator;
tab of the selected E2 channel with unsuitable connected accessory, which this generator cannot work with

2.6.3SETTING OF THERAPY PARAMETERS VIA THE SELECTION OF DIAGNOSIS – "DIAG" KEY
To view the list of diagnoses press the diag key (8). Each channel tab has its own list of therapy protocols. The letter in front of each number corresponds to the type of selected therapy: E – electrotherapy; U – ultrasound; L – laser; M – magnetotherapy. For example, the channel tab of the ultrasound generator includes a list of therapy protocols for ultrasound treatment. If the tab depicts an HVT or combined therapy symbols, the list includes protocols for HVT or combined therapies.
For moving in the list of diagnoses use the select/intensity knob (12). The currently selected diagnosis is displayed in bold.
For fast finding of a diagnosis, select its initial letter by the tab key (15).
After finding of the required diagnosis, select it by pressing the enter key (13). If to the diagnosis are assigned more therapies – e.g. the treatment can be done by several various types of current – the list of therapies appears after selection of the diagnosis. Select the required therapy by the select knob (12) and press enter (13) again.
Saved by user protocols can easily be find in the “*user diagnoses / programs” item, which appears at the top of the diagnoses list.

2.6.4SETTING OF THERAPY PARAMETERS VIA THE SELECTION OF PROGRAM – "PROG" KEY
Press the prog (8) key to set the required program number. The program numbers generally correspond to the program numbers used in the traditional BTL physiotherapy line. The letter in front of each number corresponds to the type of therapy selected: E – electrotherapy; U – ultrasound; L – laser; M – magnetotherapy.
Combined therapies E+U are listed among E programs and can be found on the electrotherapy tab with the ultrasound head symbol. They are in the positions E-35xx - E-39xx.
Your own therapy protocols (except sequences) can be saved under the following numbers: E-80xx - E-89xx for electrotherapy, U-80xx - U-89xx for ultrasound therapies, L-80xx - L-89xx for laser therapies and M-80xx - M-89xx for magnetotherapy.
Your own sequences are saved under the following numbers: E-95xx - E-99xx for electrotherapy, U-95xx - U-99xx for ultrasound therapies, L-95xx - L-99xx for laser therapies and M-95xx - M-99xx for magnetotherapy.
Programs recommended for diagnoses can be found in the User’s Guide.
For faster setting, the program numbers are arranged into pairs. For change of the number use the select knob (12), for switching between the pairs of digits use the tab key (15).
