iMRS Prime Software

iMRS Prime software went through an evolutionary upgrade while retaining the proven iMRS organ’s clock programs. Building on the now matured iMRSone Omnium1’s W@app concept since it’s first release in 2014, the iMRS core software comes with a lot more flexibility and upgrade-ability.

What’s New in iMRS Prime Software?

1. Fast Start Programs (FSP)

On top of the 5 Fast Start Programs (FSP) as in Omnium1’s Quick Start Program, iMRS Prime added two additional programs – Balance/Repair and Solfeggio Scale 9. The FSP is particularly useful if you would like to achieve a certain effect using the different frequencies characteristic of the iMRS’s organ clock programs. FSP will preset the Organ clock, intensity fluctuation and duration for you, regardless of the time of the day you run the session.

*As FSP uses organ clocks, it only works when using a full-body mat (Exagon Mat). As Hybrid Exagon FIR requires additional configuration of temperature setting, FSP will not activate FIR feature to simplify the operation and objective of FSP.

2. Solfeggio Scale 9

One notable new fast-start program introduced is Solfeggio Scale 9. This is not the usual iMRS’s Organ Clock program, but a series of frequencies based on the Solfeggio Scale 9 – 174 Hz, 285 Hz, 396 Hz, 417 Hz, 528 Hz, 639 Hz, 741 Hz, 852 Hz, 963 Hz. While the name Solfeggio Scale might sound spiritual or mystic to many, this is in fact quite a scientific-based sound wave resonance used throughout the century by different civilizations. What is different in the iMRS Prime implementation is instead of the sound wave, this is presented in the form of PEMF.

Programs Organ Clock Intensity/Duration Min (with section breakdown)
Activation Morning 12 minutes
10 (4 min) – 25 (4 min) – 50 (4 min)
Performance Noon 12 minutes
50 (4 min) – 100 (4 min) – 200 (4 min)
Balance/Repair Morning, Noon,
Evening, Night
24 minutes – intensity 25 throughout
6 min for each organ clock program
Regeneration Evening 24 minutes
25 (12 min) – 10 (8 min) – Sens (4 min)
Sleep Night 24 minutes
10 (12 min) – Sens (12 min)
Solfeggio Scale 9 174 285 396 417 528 639 741 852 & 963Hz , 9 Solfeggio Scale frequencies bundled in one pulse package 25 (16 min)

3. Exagon Sense HRV Software

The Bio-feedback Exagon Sense software feature gets a fresh upgrade in term interface and also its data compatibility, which is an important upgrade, as this can open out a range of future integration and development opportunity with 3rd party software vendors.

Oxygen Concentration Level (SPO2): Exagon Sense software now can pick up the SPO2 and display on the session screen as one of the display parameters. This parameter reflects your blood oxygen concentration.

Storing sessions history and export to 3rd party HRV analysis software. A single session of Heart rate variable (HRV) reading cannot reflect anything meaningful on your health condition. However, if you keep tap of your HRV session over a period of time, say 2 weeks or more, then you can use this information to see a trend and better understand your body conditions. The new Exagon Sense software now allows you to export the session data to a 3rd Party HRV software, kubios.com to do a further assessment.

4. Split Mode

The split mode is akin to the virtual machine concept in the computer world. This is more than simply allowing multiple applicators to share the same session. The new iMRS Prime controller now is capable to create two separate sessions that allow you to treat the system like two separate iMRS systems. Each virtual system will control it’s own physical applicators, brain and HRV sensor. Therefore you can now run a full-body mat using sawtooth session on the left, and run a pad/spot using square ware session on the right. This is achieved through introducing a new separate connector box that can separate left and right connection to separate virtual system.

You can also activate the Brainwave Entrainment system, Exagon Brain as a standalone session, without the need to couple the use or connecting to an Exagon PEMF applicator (Mat/FIR, Pad or Spot).

This feature is very useful not just for those who run health or wellness centre that requires multiple systems, it is relevant for the home user too. You can now run a full-body session on the left, while another member of your family can run a spot or pad on the right system.

*Split Mode is available in Expert, Hybrid and Trial configuration*

Note: Currently, Split Mode supports running of Fast Start Programs, Manual Mode, Program Mode and iGuide, and support Exagon Brain and Sense usage. However, due to additional power needed to run Hybrid/FIR Mat and Trial Mode (depending on the parameter settings), the Hybrid Mode and Trial Model are not supported in Split Mode to avoid overloading of system. This restriction may change over time. We shall update this article for any future changes.

5. Program Mode

Program mode is not exactly new, but rather an extension of the existing iMRS’s User Profile buttons P1, P2 and P3 – a limit to just 3 user profiles. With Program Mode, now you can practically create unlimited user profiles. This is especially useful if you have many family members using the system and requires different intensity, duration setting for different applicators.

6. Trial Mode

Trial mode, in essence, is a mode where the system allows you to freely decide the frequency, 5 waveform (sawtooth, sine, square, triangle, and trapezoid), pulse duration (rest duration in between), session duration (in minutes), temperature setting for the far-infrared mat, and intensity level in uT. This is call trial simply it reflects the purpose of this configuration. Users who purchase this configuration need to go under a special training and certification.

iMRS Prime Hardware

The iMRS Prime hardware system is a 3 piece component – (1) Touch screen control panel (2) Connector box and (3) applicators & accessories (i.e. bio-feedback sensor and brainwave entrainment headset). The separation of control panel and connector box is to allow more connection points to the system for advance split mode operation, whereby you run the iMRS Prime as two separate virtual systems (like Hyper-V virtual system) and control 2 sessions and separate applicators and accessories.

1. Touch screen Control Panel

The new sleek, aluminium blushed touch screen control panel is both a designer and ergonomics product for functional purposes. With just one power cable from the connector cable to the control panel, you can now place the touch panel at a location that is easy to access without cluttering your space, as you can easily keep the connector box out of sight. The Touch control panel comes with a stand fixed at a 45-degree position for easy operation.

2. Connector Box

Extending the idea of separate connector component, the iMRS Prime connector box now supports a total of 10 simultaneous connection to applicators and accessories to support split mode operation – 6 applicators connection, 2 Exagon Sense connection, and 2 x Exagon Brain connection. The connection is separated into left and right – for split mode operation. For single-mode operation, it supports either left or right connection for 3 Exagon applicators (Mat, Pad and Spot), 1 Exagon Sense and Brain connections.

3. Hybrid FIR Mat

The Hybrid Far Infrared (FIR) Mat or Exagon FIR probably is one of the most significant new features introduced in the new iMRS Prime line up – under the Hybrid Configuration. The effect of low heat (up to a maximum of 45c) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) offers a very complementary blend of stimulation that can be felt immediately at the sensory level, on top of the cellular stimulation and resonance from both the effect of FIR and PEMF.

Integrating FIR on top of PEMF needs careful engineering so to ensure the FIR layer doesn’t emit electromagnetic radiation that could interfere with the delicate PEMF signals generated by the iMRS system. Swiss Bionic Solutions adopted the non-radiative material, carbon fibre as the heating element. The type of carbon fibre used in Exagon FIR mat offers an extremely well-distributed heat.

4. Exagon Applicators

Exagon Applicators essentially follow the design of the flag-ship iMRS system, aside now it comes with a Spot, instead of Probe. There are few significant improvements:

Durable bio-medical grade Vinyl material

An LED indicator on each of the applicator – indicates the working and polarity status of the applicator

New Exagon Spot Applicator in place of Probe

Since the introduction of OmniSpot in the iMRSone Omnium1 series, the spot has been one of the most favourite applicators. Unlike probe, while offering high-intensity treatment, it can be used hands-free by simply wrapping the spot around the area like knee, ankle, elbow, etc.. The sandwich Helmholtz effect also offers a very effective treatment as compared to single directional application.

5. Exagon Brain - Brainwave Entrainment

The new Exagon Brain is a complete redesign in both the hardware and software department. Like the iMRSone’s OmniBrain, it can now support 256 scales for each of the blue, green and red colour, with the possibility of millions of colour combination. Instead of 2 separate audio and light cables, there will just the goggle (light) cable to the headset. The audio now can be connected using any of your personal 3rd party ear phone or headphone that is using 3.5mm audio jack. This greatly simplify the system maintenance and flexibility.

Customized your own playlist – In addition, you can now also upload and select the music playlist to the specific session. You can also enable/disable the audio-visual brainwave entrainment before you start a session, instead of a global activation/deactivation as in the previous iMRS system.

What are Wellfit, Complete and Professional configuration in Prime?

The equivalent in iMRS Prime are as follows:

  • Wellfit in iMRS –> Basic in iMRS Prime
  • Complete in iMRS -> Advanced in iMRS Prime
  • Professional in iMRS -> Expert in iMRS Prime

In both configuration, SET bundle added HRV finger sensor (iMORE or Sense) and Brainwave Entrainment System (iSLRS or Brain) respective.

In iMRS Prime, there are 2 additional model not available in iMRS

  • Hybrid – that comes with Hybrid Far Infrared Full-body Mat
  • Trial – In addition to Hybrid, add Trial Software tool.

Is iMRS Prime backward compatible with iMRS?

No. You cannot use the old iMRS applicators or iSLRS with the new iMRS Prime system for two reasons: (1) the interface connector is different and (2) the chip board and communicating protocol is entirely different. The iMORE finger sensor, however share the same connector interface, and it may still be used, though not officially supported by Swiss Bionic Solutions.

What’s the difference between Omnium1 and iMRS Prime?

Both iMRS Prime and Omnium1 are built on the same technology and application principle. Meaning the frequency range, intensity of both the full-body mattress and pad/pillow are essentially the same. The key unique features available in iMRS PRIME are

  • Far Infrared Hybrid Full-body Mat
  • Bio-feedback finger sensor based on HRV, to adjust intensity dynamically during a full-body session
  • iGuide – database of recommended settings for close to 300 ailments
  • Split mode operation – running 2 concurrent sessions
  • Trial Mode – where you can customize the parameters
  • 2 additional quick start programs

General

Is Prime compatible with Omnium1?

No. Prime and Omnium1 uses different operating platform, despite they share similar technical foundation and similarities in design. The physical connector design is different is both series too. Therefore you cannot use any of the components, including power supply between the systems.

AHRV Finger Sensor Troubleshooting

HRV Finger Sensor Troubleshooting Guide

The general information of this guide is also applicable to both Exagon Sense and iMORE 2.0 Finger sensor as the hardware technology essentially is the same.

To properly troubleshoot the Finger sensor, you need to first understand the working of the technology. iMORE is using photoplethysmogram (PPG) technology, that uses optically obtained plethysmogram to detect blood volume changes in the microvascular bed of tissue. It illuminates the skin and measures changes in light absorption. PPG reading used for Heart Rate Variability (HRV) runs at a much higher sampling rate as it needs to pick up every heartbeat and the differences in the millisecond range, as compared to general heartbeat monitoring sensor which they usually just take beats average or using extrapolation technique.

The iMRS HRV assessment is based on per-minute interval. The system will evaluate the heartbeat variability within each minute window, and report a value between 1-7 as an indicative range of your HRV, so the iMRS system will use this value to adjust the session intensity accordingly. In general, people with higher HRV (higher value) means he/she has higher recovery potential, and hence is able to subject to higher exposure of external stimulation. If there are too many missing beats during the reading interval, the system may refuse to report a value for that specific interval, hence you will not see any value in the HRV chart for that interval.

Key reasons for intermittent and inaccurate reading are:

  • Bright Ambient light. Make sure it ambient light is not too bright as this will impact the accuracy and sensitivity of the reading
  • Hand movement. Do not move the hand or finger during the reading.
  • Skin tones and low peripheral perfusion rate of the finger can affect the accuracy of the reading. Perfusion is the process of a body delivering blood to capillary beds. Low perfusion, especially in arms, can present challenges for such PPG sensor because the signal-to-noise ratio may be drastically reduced, as lower perfusion correlates with lower blood flow signals.
  • Nail polishes (especially dark colour). This is non-conclusive from various studies, but this is something worth to take note and observe in an individual case.

This section is applicable to iMRS system only

How to check your iMRS controller is configured correctly (applicable to iMRS system)

  • Make sure the iMORE feature is turned on. Go to Options -> iMORE -> ON.

  • iMORE works only with Full-body Mat. So if your applicator selection is set to Pillow or Probe, the IMORE will be disabled.
  • If the iMORE feature is turned on, you will notice the following symbol at the top right of the LCD when the applicator is set to Mat
    nc – when the iMORE is not physically plugged in
    sc – when the iMORE is physically plugged in but not clipped on to a finger
    heartbeat sign & rate – when the iMORE is clipped on to a fingerOf course, there is a possibility of hardware sensor failure. Contact the nearest Swiss Bionic Solutions office for further support.
