Arrange for the patient to be seated within
two feet of the Remote Control to ensure
an adequate communication link from the
programmer to the Stimulator.
For instructions on how to use the Clinician
Programmer with the Bionic Navigator
software to program the IPG and transfer
programs to the Remote Control, see the
Bionic Navigator Software Guide.
Selection #2 – Impedances
When the “Impedances” option is selected
from the Clinician Options menu, the Remote
Control will measure impedances at each
contact on the lead(s). This will take about
10 seconds.
Note: During this measurement the serial
number of the Stimulator will be
displayed on the screen.
The Remote Control will display the contact
impedance status screen.
Contacts 1 through 8 (lead position “1-L”) are
represented by the rectangles in the top row,
starting with contact 1 on the left. Contacts
9 through 16 (lead position “2-R”) are
represented by the rectangles in the bottom
row, starting with contact 9 on the left.
Contacts within the typical impedance range
are displayed as solid rectangles. High
impedance contacts (above 4500 ohms) are
represented by hollow rectangles.
To display the impedance values press any
key (other than the Stim On/Off button
!
).
Impedance values for contacts 1 - 8 will be
shown first. Press the key again to show
impedance values for contacts 9 - 16.
