Caution:
When in use,
LivaNova recommends
the handheld computer
to be operated on
battery power only
(unplugged from AC
power). Having the
handheld computer
plugged into AC power
during use may
contribute to
communication
difficulties. When not in
use, the handheld
computer should be
plugged into AC power
to maintain charge.
The VNS Therapy Programming Software Model 250 Version 8.1 has
been pre-installed on the handheld computer. Before proceeding to the
next section, be sure you have arrived at the MAIN Menu as shown in
Figure 1. If for any reason the software must be reinstalled, directions for
doing so are provided in the
Troubleshooting
section of this manual.
1. Turn on the handheld computer by pressing the on-off button. The
handheld computer will display the same screen it was displaying
when it was last turned off (unless it was reset since the last use).
2. If the computer doesn’t display the MAIN Menu, select
Exit
or
Menu
until the MAIN Menu is displayed.
3. If you haven’t been able to access the MAIN Menu after following
Steps 1 and 2 above, see “Precautions ” on page 59 and
