Setting up the Device
To set up the BIOwand, proceed as follows:
1. Place the device and its components on a flat, dry surface.
2. Make sure that the device and its components are protected against liquids and moisture.
3. Make sure that the device cannot shift, even with the cable connected, and that the patient can only
come into contact with the programming head. Do not touch any plug connections such as Redel
connectors and the patient at the same time.
Connecting the Programming Head (BIOwand PGH)
The port for the programming head is located on the right rear side of the device. To connect the
BIOwand PGH, proceed as follows:
1. Insert the Redel plug of the programming head cable into the programming head connector on the
device. Pay attention to the correct position of the guide cam of the Redel plug. It clicks into place.
Connect the programming head so that the cable is resting with some slack in the cable and there is no
danger of tripping.
Connecting the Power Adapter and Switching on the Device
The device switches on automatically as soon as the provided power adapter (FW8000M/12) is
connected. The package contents include various country-specific adapters for the power plug. The
port for the power adapter is located on the left rear side of the device.

Connect the power adapter so that the cable is laid without tensile stress and there is no danger of
tripping. Ensure that the power plug is freely accessible at all times.

Establishing a Connection to the BIOwand App
Note
The display name of the respective BIOwand is printed on its type plate on the underside of the
device. It consists of the product name "BIOwand" and the last three digits of the serial number
(e.g., BIOwand678).
The Bluetooth connection must be established manually the first time the BIOwand is used. After the
Bluetooth connection has been established, BIOwand automatically connects to the device on which the
BIOwand app is installed as soon as BIOwand is ready for use.
