They show the programme level. In general, it is not advisable to move up levels too quickly in order to reach Force 3 as fast as possible. In fact, the different levels correspond to your electrostimulation training progress. The easiest thing to do – and the most common – is to start at Level 1 and increase the level within the programme you have selected when you come to a new stimulation cycle. However, whenever you use the device, it’s important to achieve a significant degree of stimulation energy before progressing to the next level.

Yes, by pressing the On/Off button on any module.

The green LED for each module flashes once for Channel 1, twice for Channel 2, 3 times for Channel 3, etc.

It depends on the initial levels, but when they are completely flat it takes less than 2 hours to recharge them. N.B. A 15-minute “fast” charge is enough to carry out one full cycle.

Congratulations! You have reached the programme’s upper limit. At this stage, you must have brought every fibre of your muscles into play.

COMPEX Wireless uses proprietary protocol based on 2.4 Ghz band.

A radio wave signal is transmitted.

Guaranteed distance reach for using the wireless device is 2 m. If you remain within this range, the signal will be constant. This distance can be more or less, depending on the surrounding environment. In an open field, the reach will be less than in a closed environment (house).

As with all wireless technology, there is no risk of interference because the necessary protections have been built into the technology, for each device comes with its own ID.

(In other words: does the COMPEX Wireless send the exact same stimulation to the muscles?)

Yes, it is exactly the same signal.

No, this is not possible. The modules can be used with the remote control only.

There is no interference. Each device has its own ID.

Yes, that is possible. For the COMPEX Wireless we have a new reference 5 x 10 cm 1 snap electrode.

At the same place where you used to buy the other electrodes: sports shop, internet Compex shop, etc.

If you lose one module, you will have to contact the Compex customer service and you will be able to buy a new one and pair it with your remote control.

COMPEX Wireless will be available in stores in Spain and France as of mid-July. Other countries will have the products available gradually, as from September onwards.

No, only the COMPEX Wireless dedicated charger can be used to recharge the device.

Objectives are available on the online training platform www.compexwireless.com. There you can select your sport among a choice of 36 sports (this list will be updated regularly).

To view your personal training platform, simply go to www.compexwireless.com and enter your password. However, if you wish to synchronise your remote with your account on the computer that is not yours, you will first need to install the synchronisation software on that computer.

Yes, of course. The only restriction is that you have to use the same account.

This means all the features (Programme, Task, Comment) that you have planned that are not linked to other objectives.

Yes, using the click/drop function.

The online coach considers which sport you practice and what your objective is. It, however, does not take into account personal parameters such as level of practice, age and gender. The coach interface has been developed to help most of the customers integrate e-stim in their daily sport practice.

Electrostimulation is a proven method of medical treatment used for rehabilitation, pain relief, and sports training. The operating principle of electrostimulation is very simple. It faithfully reproduces the processes which occur in muscle contraction commanded by the brain. This means that with electrostimulation, your muscle is stimulated by electric impulses sent by the device at motor nerve level. Your muscles cannot tell the difference between a contraction triggered by the brain and one triggered by electrostimulation. This is known as “electro-induced” contraction.

Compex uses very high quality currents which are very comfortable. This means that our treatments can be used intensively. It is perfectly safe to use electrostimulation intensively, without causing nervous fatigue, while also looking after your joints. Electrostimulation has no side-effects; this is a non-invasive treatment method which is often an effective alternative to medication for pain relief.

Depending on your skin type, between 15 and 30 times. Approximately 30 applications are possible on clean, grease-free, shaved skin.

The positioning of the electrodes is shown on the remote control; you can see it by pressing the square icon with the dot in the middle.

No. Positioning the electrodes incorrectly is not at all dangerous. It simply makes the stimulation less effective.

For training programmes using tetanic muscular contractions (force, resistance, endurance, etc.) you must be in the position shown on the electrode-positioning labels, but it is essential always to work the muscle isometrically, i.e. preventing it from shortening during the contraction. For programmes which do not induce tetanic muscle contraction (recuperation, capillarisation, massage, etc.) you must be in the position shown on the electrode-positioning labels or, if nothing is shown, simply adopt a comfortable position.

Some areas of the skin are more abundant in sensitive nerve endings than others. Inadequate contact between the skin and the electrodes also reduces comfort. This means that you have to use good electrodes, apply them to the skin correctly, and move them to a less sensitive area if necessary.

The highest possible (while still being bearable) so as to engage the highest possible number of muscle fibres. The most effective control mechanism is you, and how much you can tolerate- the contractions should be powerful but never unbearable.

These programmes do not require the use of maximum intensities. However, it is vital for the intensities to be high enough to produce good, visible, muscle twitches.

No. It cannot cause injury, because the intensity is progressively increased during the contraction period, with precisely the aim of preventing any risk of muscular tear.

The risk is minimal due to the FastConn connection. However, some specific movement can disconnect the module from the electrodes. In that case by changing only the sense of the module this can be solved.
