Trigno System Overview
The TrignoTM Wireless Biofeedback System is a device designed to make EMG
(electromyographic) and biofeedback signal detection reliable and easy. The
system transmits signals from the Trigno Avanti™ sensors to a receiving base
station using a time-synchronized wireless protocol which minimizes data
latency across sensors. The core architecture of the Trigno System is designed
to support high fidelity EMG signals, along with complementary biofeedback
signals such as movement data, force signals, contact pressure events and
timing and triggering information. The system is also capable of integrating with
3rd party lab equipment through a variety of interfaces which include analog
signal generation, triggering scenarios and digital integration through the
Trigno SDK (Software Development Kit) and the Trigno API (Application Program
Interface). Refer to the specific component senor User Guides for operational
details of these system elements.

12 Trigno™ System User’s Guide
Onboard EMG Sensor
Trigno Avanti™ sensors support a low noise, high fidelity sensing circuit for
detecting EMG (electromyographic) biofeedback signals from the surface of the
skin when muscles contract. The sensor bandwidth can be selected between
10-850Hz or 20-450 Hz and the input range of the sensor can be selected
between 22mV or 11mV depending on user needs.
Inertial Measurement Unit
Trigno Avanti™ Sensors have a built-in 9 DOF inertial measurement unit which
can relay acceleration, rotation and earth magnetic field (compass)
information. Users can use this information to discern movement activity timesynchronized with the EMG signals. One of 4 ranges can be selected for each
sensor to span ±2g to ±16g for accelerometer outputs and ±250°/s to ±2000°/s
for gyroscope outputs.
Data Synchronization
Data from each sensor and from each channel within a sensor are time
synchronized over the Trigno wireless communication protocol so no time skew
between data exists. A maximum of 16 sensors can stream data to a host base
station at one time.
Wireless Communication
The Trigno wireless communication scheme offers robust data transmission for
up to 16 sensors with a nominal distance of 20m. Under optimal environmental
conditions (no RF path obstructions or interfering sources), this nominal
distance can be notably superseded. The Trigno communication protocol is
robust to sharing RF space with common 2.4 GHz devices such as routers, smart
phones and WiFi devices.
Rechargeable Battery
Sensors contain a sealed rechargeable lithium polymer battery for multiple
hours of continuous use which can be extended when making use of low power
modes. Actual duration will depend on usage conditions. Charge status is
conveniently reported through the wireless communication.
Sealed Enclosure
The environmentally sealed enclosure protects the electronics from the ingress
of liquids and other environmental elements, and provides a high standard of
user safety and durability.
Internal Magnetic Switch
The Trigno Avanti sensors are equipped with an internal magnetic switch which
is used to perform RF pairing operations and can be used to the turn the sensors
off. To activate the internal magnetic switch, the sensor must be placed on the
magnet label located on the Base Station charging cradle. The internal magnetic
switch will only react when the software is performing an RF pairing operation,
13
or if it is exercised within 3 seconds of pulling a sensor out of a charging pocket.
Exposure to any magnetic fields outside of these 2 qualifying conditions will be
ignored by the sensor. The internal magnetic switch is a feature which removes
the need for a mechanical button resulting in improvements to sensor
durability and performance.

Getting Started with the Trigno System
Software Installation
The Trigno EMG system is controlled by a PC through the USB port, and thus
requires software. Trigno Systems include a Delsys Software DVD containing
EMGworks Signal Acquisition and Analysis Software for interacting with the
system
Install EMGworks from the Delsys Software DVD or from www.delsys.com prior
to connecting the Trigno Base Station to the computer.
Powering the Base Station
Trigno Systems are equipped with a universal medical power supply and are
provided with interchangeable country-specific plug adapters. Connect the
Trigno power supply to the circular DC jack located on the side of the Base
Station. Energize the power supply by connecting it to a Mains outlet or to an
isolation transformer. The power LED on the Base Station will illuminate
anytime power is applied.
Trigno System are specifically designed and approved to
function only with the Power Supply provided. Power Supply
substitutions constitute a violation of the medical safety
approvals and will void the warranty.
Figure 1: Connecting the SC-P05 power supply to the Base Station.
Charging the Sensors
All sensors are fitted with a sealed lithium polymer cell and are charged with
the provided base station powered from a universal medical grade power
supply. A full charge will generally require 3 hours or less to complete,
depending on the battery age, usage history and particular charge conditions.
The sensor arrow will glow amber during charging and illuminate green upon
charge completion. It is recommended to keep sensors docked and charging
16 Trigno™ System User’s Guide
even when not in use in order to maximize battery life, as sensor batteries will
self-discharge with time and will degrade if left uncharged for extended periods
of time.
Figure 2: Docking a sensor in the charge cradle (left). When docked, sensors will turn off and
begin battery charging indicated by an amber LED indicator. Once fully charged, the sensor
LED indicator shows green (right).
Battery Performance
Battery performance and longevity is subject to a myriad of factors, which
include charge/discharge conditions, usage scenarios, number of
charge/discharge cycles, environmental temperature factors, and cell
manufacturing parameters which are subject to statistical variations. Typical
industry expectations assume an 80% charge capacity derating after 2-years or
300 charge/discharge cycles. Sensors are equipped with battery charge
monitoring and automatic sensor turn off when charge is depleted to avoid
deep discharge scenarios. Storage at temperature outside the 5-40°C may
damage the battery.
Turning the Sensor ON
Trigno Avanti sensors are automatically turned on when they are removed from
a powered charging dock. The sensors must be docked for a minimum of 3
seconds in the charge cradle in order for the self-powering scheme to activate
upon undocking.
17
Figure 3: Ensure sensors are docked and charging for a minimum of 3 seconds and
then removed from the charge cradle to turn on.
Turning the Sensors OFF
There are 4 mechanisms that will turn the sensors off:
a) Dock Sensors in Charger: docking the sensors in the charge cradle will
automatically turn the wireless communication system of the sensor off and
engage the battery charging circuit.
b) Undock and Activate Magnetic Switch: Sensors can be turned off by
activating the internal magnetic switch within 3 seconds of undocking a sensor
from an active charge pocket.
c) Dock and Undock Sensors <3s: Docking and undocking the sensors in less
than 3 seconds will turn the sensors off. Plugging and unplugging the power
connector within 3 seconds will turn off all docked sensors.
d) Software Issued Command: Sensors that are paired with the base station
and are communicating with the host software application can be turned off by
way of an “off” command sent from the software application. Please refer to
the software user guide for more information.
Pairing the Sensors with the Base Station
Data acquisition functions of the sensor, wireless transmission to the base
station and data transfer from the base station to the software require the
sensors to be paired to the base station. The pairing process links the unique ID
of the sensor to the unique ID of the base station to establish a wireless data
link. Pairing information is retained after the base station and sensors are
powered off. Pairing is initiated through the software pairing command and
completed by activating the internal magnetic switch in the sensor. The
magnetic switch in the sensor is activated by tapping the sensor over the builtin magnet of the base station.

Using the Wireless EMG Sensors
Orienting the EMG Sensors on the Skin
Trigno EMG Sensors employ 4 silver bar contacts for detecting the EMG signal
at the skin surface. For maximum signal amplitude, it is important to orient
these bars perpendicular to the muscle fiber direction. The top of the sensor is
shaped with an arrow to aid in the determination of this orientation. The arrow
should be placed parallel to the muscle fibers underneath the sensor. The
sensor should also be placed in the center of the muscle belly away from
tendons and the edge of the muscle. The sensor is easily attached to the skin
using the Delsys Adhesive Sensor Interface.
Figure 6. EMG Sensors must be properly oriented with the muscle fibers. Align the
sensor’s arrow with the direction of the underlying muscle fibers.
Cleaning the Sensor Site
Prior to affixing the EMG sensor on the surface of the skin, the sensor site must
be properly cleaned to remove dry dermis and any skin oils. Wiping the skin
prior to sensor application helps ensure a high quality signal. If excessive hair is
present, it will also be necessary to shave the site. In cases where the skin is
excessively dry, it may be useful to dislodge dry skin cells by dabbing the site
with medical tape. The dry cells will attach the tape’s adhesive when it is
removed. Be sure to wipe with isopropyl alcohol to remove any adhesive
residue that may remain.
Applying the Trigno Adhesive Skin Interfaces
Trigno System are supplied with specially-designed adhesive interfaces to
simplify sensor attachment. These hypo-allergenic interfaces are manufactured
from medical grade adhesive approved for dermatological applications. Usage
of the interface promotes a high quality electrical connection between the
sensor bars and the skin, minimizing motion artifacts and the ill-effects of line
interference. To ensure a strong bond with the skin, it is advised to remove
excessive hair and wipe the skin area and the EMG Sensor with isopropyl
muscle-fiber direction
20 Trigno™ System User’s Guide
alcohol to remove oils and surface residues. Allow the skin to dry completely
before applying the interfaces.
Adhesive Sensor Interfaces are for single use only.
Immediately discontinue use if skin irritation or discomfort occurs.
All Adhesive Sensor Interfaces and Reference Electrodes are for
single use only. Discard after using. Reseal storage bag to maintain
freshness.
Do not use on Patients with allergies to silver.
Do not apply over open wounds or irritated skin.
21
Using the Analog Outputs
The Trigno System provides simultaneous analog signal reconstruction of data
being detected by all active sensors. These signals are made available on the

points should be kept in mind when handling the sensors.
• All sensors should be visually inspected before each use to ensure that
no mechanical deterioration has occurred.
• The sensors can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol swabs. Ensure that
the sensor contacts remain clean at all times for proper operation.
• While the sensors are sealed and are water-resistant, these should
never be completely submerged in any liquid.
• The sensor contacts are made of pure silver and are quite soft. Care
should be taken to preserve the integrity of these contacts. Do not
scrape or dent these contacts.
Handle the sensors with care: do not drop them on the ground or
step on them.
Do not submerge the sensors in any liquid under any circumstance.
The sensors contain sensitive electronic circuitry. Static discharges
and intense magnetic fields should be avoided to prevent the risk of
irreparable damage to the sensors
Trigno Base Station
The Trigno System is designed to provide years of reliable service when proper
care is followed. While the Base Station enclosure is made of durable plastic,
the following points should be kept in mind during its use and handling:
• The device and its accessories should be visually inspected before
every use to ensure that no mechanical deterioration has occurred.
• The Base Station can be easily cleaned with isopropyl alcohol swabs if
necessary. Do not expose the base station to any liquid. It is not a
sealed device.

Appendix I
Mains Isolation
The Trigno Base Station is provided with Medical Grade isolated power supply
which is compliant with IEC60601 series of harmonized standards for Medical
Devices. However, full compliance with IEC60601-1 Basic Safety for Medical
Devices requires that the PC operating the software be isolated as well. This
stems from the basic requirement to have all patients electrically isolated from
equipment within their reach, and since the PC running the Trigno Software is
conceivably within their reach, it too must be isolated.
Delsys does not supply isolation transformers for Personal
Computers and their peripherals.
Delsys recommends model IS1000HG manufactured by Tripp Lite
(www.tripplite.com) for this task. This device is a medial grade
isolation transformer capable of delivering up to 1000 W. A smaller
similar version for 500W is also available (IS500HG). Similar products
compliant with IEC60601-1 are acceptable.
