performance and growth. Although this instrument and exercises are believed to be very safe and
have potentially great benet, no medical benets or cures are expressed or implied. These programs
and exercises are not to be used as, or used in lieu of, any course of medical or psychological
treatment.
Please note that emWave PC is designed to be a training and entertainment product. None of the
feedback, summary data, or logging data provided in the software is to be interpreted as medically

Finally, heart rate variability patterns differ widely from one person to another. There are no “right” or
“wrong” patterns. The coherence scores in the program and games are especially useful for
comparing your own progress in increasing your ability to maintain a physiologically coherent state as
you practice; they should not be compared between one individual and another.
Individuals with heart irregularities such as atrial brillation or utter or intense clusters of premature
ventricular contractions (PVC’s), or children who are unable to sit still, may be unable to use the
emWave PC successfully.

Installing the Hardware
Make certain your computer is turned on, you have installed
the emWave PC software, and you have the following hardware:
— USB Module
— USB Ear Sensor
Step 1: Connect the ear sensor cable to the USB module and plug it
into an available USB port on your computer.
When you rst connect the USB
Module to a USB port, you should
see a notication near the Windows System tray in the lower
right hand corner of your screen.
This indicates that Windows has
detected the module. After the connection is established, the green
light on the USB Module is briey illuminated while it performs a self
test. After the self test is completed, the LED light on the USB Module
goes off and remains off until you begin your session.
Page 12
12
An optional nger sensor may be plugged into the USB Module
instead of the ear sensor. To obtain a nger sensor go to: www.heart-
mathstore.com
Step 2: Clip the ear sensor to your earlobe and the lapel clip to your
clothing. Slide the lapel clip along the wire to a comfortable position.
You might have to reposition the sensor to get an accurate pulse detection.
You are now ready to start using emWave® PC
and run a session.

Running a Session
To run a session:
Step 1: Go to the Toolbar and click the HRV Start button.
Or
Go to the Activities section and click the Run Session button.
The main Heart Rhythm Display will open.
Page 18
18
Step 2: You are now ready to attach the ear sensor.
Clip the ear sensor to your earlobe and the lapel clip to your
clothing. Slide the lapel clip along the wire to a comfortable
position.
Note: As you achieve low, medium, or high coherence during your
session, the LED light on the USB Module will glow red, blue, or green
according to your level of coherence.
Step 3: Click the Start button on the Toolbar. This will start your
session.
Step 4: Click the View Pulse Wave button on the Toolbar.
Adjust the nger sensor or the ear sensor until your pulse
wave data shows distinct, smooth pulse spikes. When you see
a pattern similar to the one on the next page, accurate data is
being recorded.
Page 19
19
Step 5: Click the View Coherence Ratios button on the Toolbar.
This takes you back to the main Heart Rhythm Display.
This screen displays your Coherence Ratio, Accumulated
Coherence Score and your Heart Rhythm pattern.
You are now ready to practice the Quick Coherence®
technique (found in the Tutorial and the Coherence Coach)
to shift your heart rhythms and increase your coherence level.
To end your session, click the Stop button on the Toolbar.
Page 20
20
Coherence Ratio Screen
During a session, the Coherence Ratio screen will continuously display
an updated view of your physiological coherence ratio, your current
coherence level and your current heart rate reading. The information
will be updated and displayed every ve seconds throughout your
session.
(For further understanding of coherence, take a moment to read the
Overview section in the Science category.)
The Coherence Ratio screen can be viewed from the main Heart
Rhythm Display below the Heart Rhythm screen to the right of the
Accumulated Coherence Score screen.
Page 21
21
The Coherence Ratio Bar Chart is divided into three coherence levels:
low, medium and high. The total of all three levels will always equal
100%. The Coherence Ratio Bar Chart displays what percentage of
the time you have spent during your session in low, medium and high
coherence.
For example, in the image on the previous page the person was in:
— Low Coherence 36% of the time.
— Medium Coherence 50% of the time.
— High Coherence 14% of the time.
Your goal is to increase the amount of time you spend in high
coherence. This is done through practice.
Your results will vary depending on the challenge level you select.
Page 22
22
The Current Heart Rate display will show you your average heart rate.
Every ve seconds, emWave PC averages your heart rate and
displays that average.
After you end a session, the Current Heart Rate display will show your
average heart rate for the entire session.
Every ve seconds, the three coherence lights below the Current Heart
Rate display reect your coherence level. There is a short lag time
from the time the data is recorded to when it is analyzed and viewable
on this display.
Page 23
23
Accumulated Coherence Score
The screen to the left of the Coherence Ratio screen is the
Accumulated Coherence (AC) Score. It is a linear view of the AC
Score. With this score you can measure your progress over an
individual session and compare between separate sessions.
The AC Score can be viewed from the main Heart Rhythm Display.
It can also be displayed on a larger screen by clicking the View
Coherence Score button.
Interpreting Your Accumulated Coherence Score?
The blue line in the Accumulated Coherence Score screen is linked to
the amount of time you are in low, medium, or high coherence.
Page 24
24
When you are in low coherence, the slope of the line goes down.
When you are in medium or high coherence the line goes up.
The numbers on the right side of the screen represent points. For
every ve seconds that you are in medium coherence you receive 1
point (+1). For every ve seconds you are in high coherence you
receive 2 points (+2). For every ve seconds that you are in low
coherence you lose a point (-1).
Increases and decreases in points are reected in the upward and
downward movement of the blue line.
After about one minute you will see two lines on the graph sloping at a
downward angle from right to left. These lines represent a target area
called The Zone. Your goal is to accumulate points by staying in
medium or high coherence, which will cause the blue line to move
upward between the sloping lines into The Zone.
Using the Accumulated Coherence Score screen to view your
relationship to The Zone can help you achieve and maintain higher
levels of coherence.
To learn more about the Accumulated Coherence Score go to the
online support site at http://support.emwave.com.

EMWAVE USB MODULE AND PULSE SENSOR LIMITED WARRANTY The Basic Coverage: The
module and pulse sensor are warranted to the original owner for a period of ONE YEAR from the
date of original purchase against defects in manufacturing by Quantum Intech (QI)-not by the dealer
from whom the equipment was purchased. What QI Will Do: If the module or sensor develops such
a defect within the one year period, the item will be repaired or replaced with a new or thoroughly
reconditioned and inspected item, provided defective items are returned with a US $5.00 check or

Page 43
43
This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover:
QI will not repair defects under the limited warranty related to servicing not performed by QI. 2) QI

OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES. QI LIMITS THE DURATION OF
ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY STATE/PROVINCE LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
