back devices that enable researchers and clinicians to acquire EMG
and related signals from subjects for biofeedback purposes. ey are
intended for relaxation training and muscle reeducation. Interpreta-
tion of the EMG and supporting signals by a qualied individual is
required.

e TrignoTM Personal Monitor is an EMG and physiological moni-
toring device intended for biofeedback and research applications.
Each EMG sensor has a built-in triaxial accelerometer, a typical
transmission range of 40 m and a rechargeable battery typically last-
ing 7 hours. e system is capable of either logging data internally or
streaming it to EMGworks®. e unit communicates with 16 Trigno
sensors (resulting in 64 data channels), as well as logging GPS infor-
mation and internal 3 DOF accelerometer data which has 4 select-
able ranges (±1.5g, ±4g, ±6g, ±9g). Full triggering features further
expand the possibility for integration with additional measurement
technologies. e Trigno Personal Monitor is part of the Trigno
EMG System family.
e Personal Monitor can be used in either of two operational modes:
1) Mobile Monitoring and Datalogging
e device acts as a wearable, battery powered receiver for data from
wireless sensors (as well as the optional GPS) and stores these data
in on-board memory. e data may be later downloaded for post-
collection analysis.

physiological data logger.

2) Desktop Signal Previewing
In this mode the device is connected with a USB port to a host com-
puter and sensor data are streamed into EMGworks®for real-time
viewing and analysis, to preview how a datalogger session will proceed
and evaluate signal quality.

Basic Operations
Charging the Trigno Sensors
Connect the Trigno power supply to the circular DC jack located
on the side of the Recharge Station. Energize the power supply by
connecting it to a Mains outlet. Be sure to use the appropriate plug
adapter for your location. Ensure that the Trigno sensors are properly
tted in the recharge pockets. e sensor LEDs will illuminate to am-
ber during charging and green when charge is complete. e recharge
unit will periodically check sensors and apply a top-o charge to en-
sure that the battery kept at full capacity during extended periods of
storage, as long as power is connected.
Figure 6: Connecng the SC-P05 power supply to the Sensor
Charge Staon.
16
Charging the Personal Monitor
Connect the SC-P07 power supply to the DC jack located on the
bottom side of the device. Energize the power supply by connecting
it to a Mains outlet using an appropriate IEC320 power cord. Alter-
natively the Personal Monitor can be charged via the USB port by
connecting it to a PC.
Figure 7: Connecng the SC-P07 power supply to the Personal
Monitor for charging.
e TPM provides visual feedback to indicate the current battery
level, charging status, and time until fully charged or discharged.

empty battery is expected (if discharging). As dierent functions are
performed on the TPM, the rate of battery depletion will change so
too will the charge level estimates. Battery time to empty estimates
update approximately once every minute.
When connected to a PC, EMGworks will also show the charge state
of the TPM.
Figure 9: TPM Charge Status reported by EMGworks when connect-
ed to the USB port (le) and the AC adaptor (right).
Turning the Personal Monitor ON/OFF
To power on the device, hold the power button on the upper-le cor-
ner of the TPM for approximately 3s, until the screen illuminates.
ere are three methods by which the device can be shut down:
1. Hold the power button on upper-le corner of the TPM for ap-
proximately 3 seconds or until the screen goes dark.
2. Allow the “Power down time” as set in the device settings to
elapse. e device will only automatically shut down if it is not con-
nected to a PC via the USB port.
3. In the hardware pane of the EMGworks protocol editor, set the
TPM to power down when EMGworks closes. e device will be
turned o when exiting EMGworks.
Figure 10: Seng the EMGworks opons to automacally turn the
TPM o when exing the soware.
Note that the device will automatically power o when a low-battery
threshold is reached. In this case, the device must be connected to the
AC adapter in order to operate.
User Interface and Navigation Buttons
e Trigno Personal Monitor is equipped with 7 buttons for user
interaction with the screen. e Navigation set consist of 5 buttons
with up, down, le and right function arranged in a circle, and a select
18
button at the center. Use these to navigate between elds or through
scrolling lists on the device.
An additional 3 sokey buttons are located at the base of the LCD
screen. e function of these changes depending on the device’s state,
as indicated by the text at the bottom of the screen.

Connecting the Personal Monitor to a Computer
e TPM will charge when connected
to any USB 2.0 compliant port. EMG-
works will need to be installed in order
to interact with the device.
e following screen is displayed when
an active data transfer is in progress over
the USB link. Do not unplug or power
down the device when this screen is dis-
played, as data corruption may result.

Getting Started
To use the Trigno Personal Monitor, it must be rst connected to a
PC with EMGworks in order to create a data collection protocol, and
load it onboard. Data can then be collected on the Personal Monitor
which communicates with up to 16 wireless sensors (and the optional
GPS module). e device can store up to 14 hours of recorded data
from all 16 sensors. Once the data collection session is completed,
the device is again connected to a PC running EMGworks in order to
download the collected data.

Figure 13: Using the Trigno Personal Monitor requires three
basic steps: 1) setup the desired data acquision protocols in
EMGworks and download them onto the TPM; 2) Collect data on
the TPM using the protocols; 3) Transfer the collected data from
the TPM to EMGworks for analysis.
Loading Protocols on the Personal Monitor
To use the TPM as a mobile subject monitoring device, a protocol
for data collection must rst be created on a PC and loaded on the
device.
Power on the TPM and connect it to a PC using the supplied USB
cable. Aer device drivers are installed, the following dialog will ap-
pear:

Figure 14: Connecng the TPM to a USB port.
Choose “Start Recording” to automatically launch EMGworks. If
this dialog does not appear, launch “EMGworks Acquisition” from
the Start menu or desktop. As EMGworks is launching, the following
dialog will be displayed:
Figure 15: Inializing the TPM with EMGworks soware.
Please wait a moment while the Trigno Personal Monitor is initial-
ized. e prompt will disappear automatically when the initialization
is complete.
If your system was shipped with sensors, these sensors are already
paired to the Trigno Personal Monitor. Otherwise, it is necessary to
rst pair your existing sensors to the Trigno Personal Monitor. Refer
to the section “Pairing Sensors” to perform this process.
Once sensors are paired, create a new conguration in EMGworks
to be loaded onto the TPM. Aer the desired sensors, settings, and
workow steps have been congured, select “Synchronize with Tri-
gno Personal Monitor” at the lower-right corner of the Test Congu-
ration Manager. is will load the protocol and associated settings
onto the device.
