4-4 Merlin™ PSA Session Information
To begin a PSA session:
1. From the Start-Up Screen or during a device programming session, select Tools > PSA.
If you started from the Start-Up Screen, you will be prompted to select the device implant type. This
enables the Merlin PSA to use appropriate filters, default Pulse Width settings, and the correct
number of test channels.
2. Select the Start PSA button.
The PSA session starts.
3. Begin the leads tests or burst pacing procedures.
For information on use of the Merlin PSA, see:
- Lead Tests
- Burst Pacing
- Parameters
- Additional Information .
End a Merlin™ PSA Session
To end a PSA session:
1. Select the End Session button.
Select the Print selected reports check box to print reports prior to ending the PSA session.
Select the Resume Session button to close the End Session window and return to the PSA session.
2. Select the End Session button to end the PSA session.
The Merlin PSA clears all test results and patient data. Pacing from the PSA ends.
Suspend the Merlin™ PSA Session
You can suspend the PSA session and return to other programmer functions by selecting the
Programmer button. If a device session is not already suspended, you can interrogate a device and later
return to the PSA session. When you exit the programmer session, the suspended PSA session is
resumed.
Note
It is important to end the PSA Session by selecting the End Session
button. If the Merlin PSA is pacing and if you turn the Merlin PCS
programmer off before selecting the End Session button, the Merlin
PSA will switch to battery power and continue pacing, thereby
draining the batteries.
In addition, if you select the End Session button, you reduce the
chance of mistakenly using the previous session’s patient data for
the current session.
PSA reports are not stored as Session Records.
Note
When the PSA session is suspended, the Merlin PSA continues its
pacing operation at the current PSA settings.
