Setting Up
The Clinician Programmer (CP) communicates with the Stimulator via wireless telemetry. Wireless Programming allows patients to move about,
if instructed by the clinician, while the clinician adjusts parameters. Vercise Genus devices utilize Bluetooth technology for direct wireless
communication between the CP and the Stimulator. Vercise PC and Vercise Gevia devices communicate via a Programming Wand. The
Programming Wand uses an inductive telemetry radiofrequency (RF) link to communicate with the Stimulator.
Caution:
Use only Vercise PC, Vercise Gevia, or Vercise Genus DBS System components with Vercise Neural Navigator. Failure to do so
may result in the inability to program the Stimulator.
Caution:
The CP is not considered as equipment for the patient environment as defined by IEC 60601‑1. The CP and the person using the
CP should not be in physical contact with the patient while programming.
1. Plug the CP into a power source.
2. Power ON the CP.
3. Login as ClinicUser. If this is the first login, enter password “bsn”. You will be prompted to setup a new ClinicUser password when logging
into the CP for the first time. The new ClinicUser password must be 10 or more characters in length.
Note:
In regions where software is installed by a third party, follow region‑specific guidance for the ClinicUser password.
4. Determine the type of Stimulator to be programmed and follow the appropriate sections as listed in Table 1, then continue on to the
“Starting a Programming Session”
section of this manual.
