• The ventricular rate is higher than 110 bpm: CV is suspended while the ventricular rate is higher
than 110 bpm. When the ventricular rate drops below 110 bpm, CV is resumed.
• Mode Switch: CV is suspended and the device is set to high output until reversion back to the
programmed mode.
The VCC feature will be automatically turned OFF when the following events occur:
• The initial SA/CV sequence after activating VCC failed
• Three subsequent and consecutive failed SA attempts
• The occurrence of 25 Losses of Capture between two consecutive days
• ERI: the device will be set to ERI mode with VCC OFF
• Unipolar lead failure is detected
The occurrence of these unsuccessful, aborted or postponed SA/CV sequences and disabling of the
VCC feature are reported in the Status log in the VCC statistics.

VCC is programmable to ON, Active Threshold Monitoring (ATM) modes, and OFF.

Table 14: VCC Programmability
When programmed to ON, the device will continuously monitor the cardiac signal following the pacing
pulse to verify that a depolarization occurred as a result of the pulse. Upon detection of non-capture,
the device will issue a back-up pulse at a higher output (pulse width increased to 1 ms) within 130 ms.
If loss-of-capture (LOC) occurs, the device will initiate an SA/CV. Additionally, the device will perform
regular threshold searches at the programmed time each day. After a successful threshold search,
the device will program the pulse amplitude to the threshold plus the programmed Safety Margin. The
device will never set the amplitude lower than the fixed minimum VCC Amplitude (Min Ampl.) of 0.7 V.
NOTE:
After programming the Ventricular Capture Control feature to ON or ATM, the device will perform a
Signal Analysis and a capture threshold search. This sequence can take up to 2 minutes.
5.14 Atrial Capture Control (ACC)
5.14.1 Feature Description
Automatic atrial threshold measurement can be performed during follow-up using the programmer. The
ACC feature periodically measures the pacing threshold and amplitude adjustment in the atrium. The
standard setting is one threshold measurement per day, but the user may choose another frequency
of measurement. The threshold search is based on the presence or absence of atrial sensing markers
generated by the device. The atrium is stimulated at a pacing rate higher then the intrinsic rate to
suppress atrial intrinsic events. As soon as the pacing output is lower then the atrial threshold, sensed
