Remote Control Position
You will achieve a strong communication link between the Remote Control and the
implanted Stimulator if the Remote Control is positioned as shown in the picture below.
In some situations, you may need to bring the Remote Control closer to the Stimulator.
The distance at which you will be able to achieve communication depends on your
environment and the relative orientation of the Remote Control to the Stimulator.
Stimulator Linking
A Remote Control is restricted to communicating with one Stimulator at a time in order
to prevent it from inadvertently controlling an unintended device. Therefore, the Remote
Control must be linked with the Stimulator before use.
If the Remote Control is linked to a different Stimulator, you will need to clear the link
before linking it to the new Stimulator. See "Selection #3 – Clear Link" in the "Clinician
Options" section.
The initial step in the linking process involves the Remote Control identifying, by
telemetry, the intended Stimulator for communication. The second step in establishing the
link depends on whether:
• The Stimulator is an External Trial Stimulator or an implantable Stimulator.
• Programs are stored in either the Remote Control or Stimulator.
• The Remote Control and Stimulator contain different program sets (if so, one set
will need to be cleared).
