____________________
Each successful interrogation and programming event is recorded in the
database of the handheld computer.
Likewise, every time a magnet is successfully used to initiate activation of
a Pulse Generator, the event is recorded in the database of the Pulse
Generator. During an interrogation, the total number of magnet events (as
well as the date and approximate time of the last 15 magnet events) will be
copied from the Pulse Generator to the database of the handheld computer.
Historical programming events (including the latest) can be viewed using
either of two methods:
1. Tap the
View Database
button on the PARAMETER Screen Menu
2. Tap the
View Database
button on the MAIN Menu
The VIEW DATABASE Screen will be displayed, as shown in Figure 29
on page 48.
