4. Before Initial Operation

4.1 Initial Preparation of the Device Directly after Transportation

Both fuses have been removed for transportation. Please insert both fuse holders with the

provided micro fuses (3,15AT) into the fuse sockets (Fuse A and Fuse B) on the back side

of the device. The fuse holder can be held by means of a bayonet catch. Insert the fuse

holder with the pre-assembled fuse completely into the socket and fasten it with a ¼ turn to

the right. Use an appropriate screwdriver for this task.

The touchscreen is covered with a protective foil. Please, remove the protective foil before

turning on the device for the first time.

The cup tray cover is secured with two adhesive tapes during transportation. Please remove

the two tapes as well.

4.2 Preparing the Antenna

The foot of the antenna is supplied with 2 screws, with which it should be attached to the

antenna. Please note, that the antenna housing is plastic. Therefore, you should not use

excessive force, while tightening the screws.

4.3 Connecting the Trikombin

1. Connect the power adapter to the charger socket of the Trikombin and the supplied

power cord to a mains power outlet (AC outlet).

2. Please verify if the power outlet is suitably earthed with the supplied power outlet test

instrument. Only if that is ensured, take one of the two supplied earthing cables.

Please FIRST insert the banana plug into the earth socket of the Trikombin (back

side). THEN insert the Schuko plug into a suitable power outlet. Connect both

earthing cables to the same outlet with the help of a splitter or to two accompanying

outlets –both earthing cables must be assembled within the same circuit.

3. Caution: No other cables must be used for earthing. The earthing cables of the

Diamond Shield Zapper are NOT suited as well! A functional suitable earthing is

precondition for operating the Trikombin! Please check all cables with the cable

tester regularly (see chapter 7.1.1 Cable Tester)

4. If using an external footswitch (optional accessory):

Insert the plug of the foot switch into the corresponding socket on the back side of

the device. Then turn both screws of the plug lightly (!) to secure the plug from falling

out.

5. The output signals are available on the BNC-sockets as well as on the left banana

sockets. A series circuit of the outputs is not allowed.

Please note: in principle, every frequency output has TWO signals. One signal (“hot” signal)

carries the actual information. It is connected on the brass cup, the left banana sockets, as

well as on the inner pin of the BNC socket. The second signal (“cold” signal) is used as

reference and is connected on the outer pin of the BNC socket.

4.4 Connecting the Antenna

Please verify if the power outlet is suitably earthed with the supplied power outlet test

instrument. Only if that is ensured, take one of the two supplied earthing cables. Please

FIRST insert the banana plug into the earth socket of the Antenna. THEN insert the Schuko

plug into a suitable power outlet.

4.5 Connecting the Electrode Cables

Insert the banana plugs of the coloured cables each in the LEFT socket of the Trikombin

and the other end in the supplied hand electrode.

An optional available ampoule tapper is connected via a random cable with a banana plug

on the blue socket on the RIGHT side.

4.6 Connecting Output Brass Cups

Optional available output cups are connected

after the antenna. The banana plug is inserted on

the back side of the antenna into the earthing

cable.

Attention: If the cups are attached between

the Antenna and the earthing cable a loss of

efficiency of the antenna is caused!

Input Cups I II III

4.7 Connecting Additional Devices

The BNC sockets of the 3 channels can be used to connect suitable additional devices, such

as optionally available loudspeakers.

5. Operating the Trikombin

5.1 Handling the Rechargeable Batteries

When storing the device, the rechargeable batteries should be recharged every six months.

The rechargeable batteries can be partially charged –it does not cause any damage.

As soon as the battery charge indicator in the display lights up red, the batteries should be

recharged.

Operating the Trikombin is not possible during the charging process. The device charges

faster when it is turned off.

If the device is not in operation for a longer period of time, the batteries should be previously

recharged completely.

The rechargeable batteries are integrated and need not be removed for transportation.

However, both fuses must be removed before transportation.

To achieve an optimal and radiation-free operation, the device should be disconnected from

the main power supply.

5.2 Turning the Trikombin On

Press the power switch. The power switch lights green. While the Trikombin boots, you can

see the product name on the touchscreen. Approximately after 20 seconds, the start screen

appears and the device is ready.

5.3 Switching the Trikombin Off

To turn off, simply press the power switch so that its LED is not lit. The Trikombin must not

be shut down.

5.4 Charging the Trikombin

The Trikombin has an electronic charger for the rechargeable batteries, which runs

independently from the touchscreen (operator terminal). First, please make sure that the

power adapter is connected to the mains voltage and the charging socket of the Trikombin.

Now press the charging switch. For a brief moment, they both light up: the charging switch

and the underlying yellow charging-LED. Afterwards the two LEDs display the charge status

as follows:

a) The yellow charging-LED lights up, charging switch is dark (off): batteries are charging.

b) The yellow charging-LED is dark, charging switch lights up: batteries are fully charged.

During the charging process, the operator terminal can be turned on by pressing the power

switch. During charging it is impossible to activate the frequency outputs or to leave the

mode “Start”.

If the operator terminal is turned on during the charging process, the batteries will be charged

normally. Under certain circumstances the charging circuitry doesn’t detect when the

batteries are fully charged, as the turned on/activated operator terminal draws power from

the batteries. This however has no influence on the safety or on the battery lifespan.

A full charge cycle takes approximately 3 to 4 hours. A partial loading or unloading is

permitted and has no negative impact on the battery lifespan or its capacity. As soon as the

battery charge indicator in the display lights up red, the batteries should be recharged.

5.5 Handling the Brass Cups

A brass cup is assigned to each output channel. The output signal is fed via the brass cup

and then to the left banana socket and the BNC socket.

The brass cups can be removed, if necessary (e.g. for cleaning purposes). To enable this,

one must remove the large cup tray cover and the covers of the brass cups. Afterwards each

brass cup can be pulled out with little effort.

All three brass cups are identical, so they can be safely exchanged between the channels.

For reconnecting the brass cups, make sure that they are fully inserted. They must be put

in with some force, to close the contact. The contact is made only on the last 5 millimetres

of the downward movement.

6. Handling the Program Surface

6.1 Overview

The Trikombin software offers three main modes. These are selected using the tabs at the

bottom of the screen:

•Start

A new session can be started and certain configurations can be made in this screen.

This mode usually is only needed after switching on the device or when changing a

session.

•Testing

Frequency programs can be loaded and adapted as necessary here. If appropriate

frequency programs were found, they can be transferred to the Application Mode.

•Application

The selected and individualised frequency programs are executed here.

6.2 Basic Operation

6.2.1 Overview

Trikombin is operated using the touchscreen, the rotary encoder and the keypad.

The screen of the operator terminal is designed as a touchscreen. You can trigger the

actions by gently pressing on an area of the screen with a finger or any blunt object.

The keypad keys operate as you are used to from your computer, with exception of the keys,

that have a little lamp.

These keys with little lamps and their functions are described in section 7.2.2 Function Keys.

6.2.2 Setting Values with the Rotary Encoder

The encoder enables to quickly change numerical values.

Simply tap your finger on the numeric value you want to change. The outline of the value is

shown in bold, indicating that the value is active.

Now you can change the value using the rotary encoder. A faster turn causes a greater

change in a value.

6.2.3 Other Functions of the Rotary Encoder

The rotary encoder can also be used to

•scroll touchscreen contents

to change the selected entry in a list.

7.1.1 Cable Tester

All cables in use must be checked regularly with the built-in cable tester.

To do so, please proceed as follows:

1. Select the Start Mode and tap the button “Cable tester…”.

2. Make sure that nothing is connected to the BNC sockets and then confirm the

according message.

3. Then connect the blue banana cable to one of the two blue banana sockets.

4. Now touch with the free end of the blue connector cable the outer metal ring of the

BNC –socket, which is located directly below the blue banana sockets. Keep this

contact for a few seconds.

5. The cable tester now indicates whether there is a sufficient contact and therefore the

cable is intact or defect.

6. To exclude a loose connection, you should bend the cable near the connectors while

you observe the display. It should indicate a steady contact.

7. With the screen buttons “Channel II” and “Channel III” you can switch to the other

channels and test the other cables accordingly.

For testing the earthing cable, plug the banana plug of the earthing cable into a

banana socket and touch the BNC socket with the metal contact of the Schuko plug.

Attention: a functional suitable earthing is precondition for functional usage of

the Trikombin!

8. The black-red cable with a BNC plug can be tested by connecting it to a BNC socket

and touching the banana cable’s red and black ends.
