CALIBRATION ADAPTATION:
ADAPTIVE ADVANCE
TM
Adaptive Advance
TM
is an important feature that is part of calibration. It is an automatic, continuous-learning
algorithm that knows exactly how to meld new calibration data into the existing state of your control. Since
Adaptive Advance
TM
adapts and learns each time you calibrate any or all motions, it acts as a control
companion that tracks natural changes over time. Each time calibration is performed, the
Adaptive Advance
TM
algorithms know exactly what to do with your new data to improve control.
To turn
Adaptive Advance
TM
on or off (it is on by default), use the Coapt software application. Connect to your
device with Bluetooth, navigate to the Calibrate panel, then click on the settings icon (looks like a cogwheel).
In the menu that appears, use the On/Off toggle by the
Adaptive Advance
TM
label.
It can be especially helpful for new pattern recognition users to perform the calibration
routine multiple times from a starting state. This allows
Adaptive Advance
TM
to
effectively “layer” extra information into a robust and functional control scheme.
CALIBRATION: ADDITIONAL TOOLS
Calibration Clearing/Resetting
Sometimes you may want or need to erase/reset the calibration control memory of your Coapt system. This can
be helpful if there has been a major socket change (such as electrode relocation) or simply if reliable control
has become unstable. To help with this, there are a few convenient ways to reset all calibrated motions or to
reset one motion at a time.
CLEARING/RESETTING ALL CALIBRATED MOTIONS
To reset ALL calibrated motions to a blank starting state, you can use either the Coapt
Complete Calibrate
button on the prosthesis or use the software application.
To reset ALL calibrated motions using the Coapt
Complete Calibrate
button, press
and hold for 10 seconds (until you hear it play a short melody) then let go. This will
reset the system back to a starting state and turn the button’s LED magenta. Don’t
expect control of the prosthesis when the LED is magenta—the control memory is
empty and it will need at least one new calibration to operate a prosthesis again.
To reset ALL calibrated motions using the Coapt
Complete ControlRoom
software
application, connect to your device with Bluetooth, navigate to the Calibrate panel,
then click on the settings icon (looks like a cogwheel). In the menu that appears,
click the “Reset ALL” button. This will reset the system back to a starting state and
turn the Calibrate button’s LED magenta. Don’t expect control of the prosthesis
when the LED is magenta—the control memory is empty and it will need at least
one new calibration to operate a prosthesis again.
