Understanding ArcEquine's 'buttons and lights' (before Aug 1st, 2016)

Before watching the short video, we suggest you read through the notes below and then it will be much easier to follow ...

1. To switch on the ArcEquine, press and hold the LEFT button until you hear a 'beep'. A GREEN light on the LEFT button indicates the unit is charged and ready for use. A RED light on the LEFT button indicates that the unit needs to be charged.
(If you purchased your ArcEquine unit after August 1st 2016, please watch the other video in this series as the lights on your unit are slightly different - you will find it on YouTube here ...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us6yc0GbsFI )

2. Selecting the required treatment programme is also done using the LEFT button. Pressing it briefly will move forward between the programmes - 1, 2, 3, 4, and back to 1, indicated by the small lights at the top. The selected programme will be shown by a RED light.

3. Once you have selected the required programme, pressing the RIGHT button briefly will start the delivery of that treatment programme. The RIGHT button also indicates whether you have a good 'connection' or not. GREEN confirms you have a good connection, whereas RED indicates that you have not - and you will need to adjust the leg strap, perhaps adding more ArcEquine coupling gel to achieve a good connection.

4 After 30 seconds, the light under the RIGHT button will turn OFF to save battery power and the small light at the top will change from 'solid' to 'flashing', and will continue to do so throughout the delivery period.
Briefly pressing the RIGHT button again will turn ON the light under the RIGHT button and the small light at the top will change back to 'solid' for a further 30 seconds.

5. We suggest applying a protective stable bandage or boot over the unit for the treatment period.

6. At the end of the three hour delivery period, the ArcEquine unit will switch itself off, waiting for you to remove it from your horse or pony. If you wish to remove it before the delivery of the treatment is complete, you can switch it off by pressing and holding the LEFT button until you hear a 'beep', then release.

How to put an ArcEquine on your horse or pony

Before watching the short video, we suggest you read through the notes below and then it will be much easier to follow...

1.      Align the two holes on the liner with the two press studs on the leg strap
2.      Fix the Carbon Pads to the leg strap using the press studs, this will also secure the leg strap liner. Carbon rubber pads should be wiped clean with warm water after each use.
3.      Apply a small amount to the carbon rubber pads, the Conductive Gel ensures good electrical connectivity with the skin. The conductive gel complies with all equine and veterinary regulations, is propylene glycol free and water-soluble.
4.      Once the liner and pads have been attached to the leg strap, insert the Delivery Unit into the strap’s pouch and ensure that the electrical lead is inserted fully into the bottom of the delivery unit. Attach the leg strap with the delivery unit to the outside of the cannon bone, making sure to rotate the strap between healthy legs each day. There is no need to over-tighten the strap, the carbon rubber pads are very sensitive and no significant pressure is required to maintain connectivity. To protect the unit whilst on your horses leg, we advise wrapping with a soft stable bandage.

      - Never strap the device over an open wound or skin irritation.
- The ArcEquine is safe to use on injury’s that have not broken the skin, providing the horse is accepting of this.
- Always rotate the device between legs for each 3 hour treatment.
