Nick/Constant Button

There are three buttons each on the front and left side
of the transmitter. The Nick/Constant button is the top
button on each side of the transmitter. When the button
is pressed quickly, the Nick function is activated and the
receiver emits a single rapid pulse of electrical stimulation.
When the button is pressed more than two seconds, the
Constant function is activated and the receiver emits a
continuous stimulation as long as the button is pressed,
for up to 12 seconds. If the button is not released after 12
seconds, the stimulation will automatically turn off as a
safety feature. The receiver will be ready to be reactivated
once the button has been released.
