User Guide

Special Precautions

Risk Management
To minimize the risk of device damage or injury to the user while maximizing the functions of this device, follow the instructions for installation, and use this device as described in this manual.

The MC ETD is water-resistant, not waterproof
While the Motion Control ETD is water-resistant, the quick disconnect wrist is not. Do not submerge the ETD beyond the wrist.
Flammable Gases
Caution should be used when operating the ETD around flammable gases. The ETD utilizes an electric motor that can ignite volatile gases.
Do not bend fingers
While the MC ETD is robust, body weight represents a great deal of force. Do not apply full body weight on the fingers. Additionally, a fall with the force directed to the fingers could cause damage. If the fingers do become bent or out of alignment, see your prosthetist.
Safety Release
Do not force the ETD fingers opened or closed. This will result in serious damage to the device. The safety release will allow easy opening and closing of the ETD. If the release mechanism does not allow motion, the device requires service by Motion Control.
Repairs or Alterations
Do not attempt to repair or alter any of the mechanical or electronic components of the MC ETD. This will likely cause damage, additional repairs, and void the warranty.
Safety Caution
Use caution when using this device in situations where injury to yourself or others may occur. These include but are not limited to activities such as driving, operating heavy machinery, or any activity where injury may occur. Conditions such as a low or dead battery, loss of electrode contact, or mechanical/electrical malfunction (and others) may cause the device to behave differently than expected.
Serious Incidents
In the unlikely event a serious incident occurs in relation to the use of the device, users should seek immediate medical help and contact their prosthetist at the earliest possible convenience. Clinicians should contact Motion Control immediately in the event of any device failure.

Single Patient Use

Each amputee is unique. The shape of their residual limb, the control signals each generates and the tasks an amputee performs during the day require specialized design and adjustment of the prosthesis. Motion Control products are manufactured to be fit to one individual.

Disposal/Waste Handling

This device, including any associated electronics and batteries should be disposed of in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations. This includes laws and regulations regarding bacterial or infectious agents, if necessary.

Introduction

The Motion Control (MC) Standard Electric Terminal Device (ETD) is a high performance electric terminal device for persons with upper extremity limb loss. The MC ETD contains a battery-saver circuit for longer battery life, wide-opening fingers, and a unique safety release.
The MC ETD is manufactured as a robust device for high-use wearers. The fingers are lightweight aluminum, but are also available in titanium for increased strength. The MC ETD is water resistant to the IPX7 standard, allowing it to be submerged to the quick disconnect wrist.

Power Switch

The power switch is located at the base of the ETD, on axis with the opening of the fingers. Pushing on the same side as the safety release turns the ETD ON. Pushing on the opposite side turns the ETD OFF.

Safety Release

Pushing the safety release lever UP disengages the fingers, allowing the ETD to be easily opened.

Quick Disconnect Wrist

The Quick Disconnect wrist is a universal design that allows interchangeability with our other terminal devices, such as the MC ProPlus Hand, and other manufacturers’ devices.

Instructions for Use

Before attaching the MC ETD to the forearm, locate the power switch at the base of the ETD. Ensure it is switched OFF (see diagram, page 3).
Insert the quick disconnect wrist on the ETD into the wrist on the forearm. While pushing it in firmly, rotate the ETD until an audible click is heard. It is advisable to rotate the ETD both directions several clicks, then attempt to pull the ETD off to ensure it has attached firmly.
Now, push the power switch in the opposite direction and the ETD is ON and ready for use.
To disconnect the ETD, first turn it OFF, then rotate it either direction until a slightly more difficult click is felt. Overcoming this click will disconnect the ETD from the forearm. This allows interchangeability with another terminal device, such as the MC Standard Hand.
