7.3.2.5 Start Switched Joint
This function allows the preferred prosthetic component to be determined when
switching on the elbow joint.
For the Start Switched Joint setting, each component that was activated with
the Switch Matrix must be selected.
7.3.2.6 Switching mode using muscle signals
This function is used to control the desired prosthetic component.
1. Myoevents
2. MyoTimer
3. Switch rule
Indication
For patients with strong myosignals.
Control
Via MyoBock electrodes on inputs 1–6.
Version
Switching is via a short, strong signal (“4 Channel” or “Impulse” button) and/or a long-
short co-contraction.
Myoevents (item 1)
The myoevents are generated via the colours of the corresponding channel. If an event is performed successfully,
the button flashes red.
MyoTimer (item 2)
Time setting for the “Myo-switching” function: the MyoTimer setting is used to differentiate between a short and
long co-contraction.
•
Co-contractions that are
shorter
than the configured value are recognised as a short co-contraction.
•
Co-contractions that are
longer
than the configured value are recognised as a long co-contraction.
If the “4 Channel” and “Impulse” myoevents are activated simultaneously, the MyoTimer setting decides between
the switching of “Impulse” and “4 Channel”.
•
Myosignals that are
shorter
than the configured value are recognised as impulse switching.
•
Myosignals that are
longer
than the configured value are recognised as four-channel switching.
The default setting of the MyoTimer is 800 ms (0.8 seconds).

The sequence of the prosthetic components to be operated can be determined
with this function.
Short co-contraction
Indication
For patients who can execute a co-contraction.
Control
Two electrodes
Version
Switching takes place via short co-contraction.
Both myosignals have to exceed the corresponding, configurable co-contraction threshold
within 80 ms. Subsequently the signals have to fall below the ON threshold within the
MyoTimer setting.
Long co-contraction
Indication
For patients who can execute a co-contraction.
Control
Two electrodes
Version
Switching takes place via long co-contraction.
Both myosignals have to exceed the corresponding, configurable co-contraction threshold
