Summary: This article explains how the EMDR Kit automates the counting, timing, and stopping of sets to reduce the therapist's cognitive load.
1. The Classic Controller (Wired): The Classic Controller features a built-in LCD screen that acts as your session dashboard. During a set, it provides real-time data:
Live Pass Counter: Displays the exact number of back-and-forth movements (passes/beats) in the current set.
Timer: Shows the elapsed time of the active set.
2. The EMDR Kit App (Wireless): When using the Wireless system, your smartphone or tablet becomes your control center with high-visibility tracking:
Live Pass Counting: Displays the exact number of back-and-forth movements (passes/beats) in the current set.
Timer: Shows the elapsed time of the active set.
3. The Limiter Function (Wireless App Only): The Limiter is an automation tool within the app that allows you to pre-define the length of a set.
How it works: You can set a specific number of Passes (e.g., 24 passes) or a specific Duration in seconds.
Automatic Stop: Once the limit is reached, the Light Tube, Pulsators, and Audio will stop automatically.
Clinical Benefit: This allows the therapist to stay 100% "eyes-on" with the client. You don't have to watch the counter or a clock; you can focus entirely on the client’s processing, knowing the system will signal the end of the set for you.
