Obtain the NMES pod. Remove plastic pin covers
from each electrode lead pin. Connect the RF
(Blue lead wire) and the COM (red lead wire) to
the 2” x 3.5” electrodes. Connect the VMO (Black

various combinations of 2” x 2” and/or 2”x 3.5”
electrodes may be used according to comfort and

metal pin is completely covered.
