. Tap

to return to the

Upon completion of a successful interrogation, the Programming Software
automatically displays the PARAMETER screen (see Figure 3 on page 15)
unless an error condition (i.e., Generator End of Service or High Lead
Impedance) is detected with the Pulse Generator. If an error condition is
detected with the Pulse Generator, the associated warning message is
displayed and must be acknowledged by the user before proceeding to the
PARAMETER screen. The PARAMETER screen displays the operating
parameters of the Pulse Generator with their current settings.
There is one line for each of the eight parameters. Each line contains three
types of information:
1. The name of the parameter and the units used to express its values
2. The present setting for that particular parameter (***** is shown for
any unknown or out of range parameter values)
