Option C: Splitter Removal
1. If the splitter has been implanted, open the incision to expose the lead and splitter junction.
2. Loosen the connector set screw on the splitter receptacles using the hex wrench provided.
3. Disconnect and discard the splitter components.
Programming with the Infinion 16 Lead
For detailed programming instructions, refer to the appropriate Bionic Navigator Software Guide or the
Bionic Navigator 3D System Programming Manual.
If using the Bionic Navigator 3D software:
When the Infinion 16 lead is used with the Splitter 2x8 and placed properly into the Precision Spectra
IPG ports (the splitter tail with laser etched bands to the left ports A or C and the unmarked splitter tail
to the right ports B or D) the laser marked splitter tail corresponds to contacts 1-8 on the distal end
of the Infinion lead and the unmarked splitter tail corresponds to contacts 9-16 of the Infinion Lead.
If using Bionic Navigator Software:
When the Infinion 16 lead is used with the Splitter 2x8 and placed properly into the Precision
IPG ports (laser-marked tail of Splitter 2x8 connecting to IPG port "1-L"), the distal 8 contacts of
the Infinion 16 lead (contacts 1-8) will correspond with contacts 1-8 on the left side of the Bionic
Navigator™ software display. Likewise, the proximal 8 contacts of the Infinion 16 lead (contacts
9-16) will correspond with contact 9-16 on the right side of the Bionic Navigator software display.
The diagram below depicts this wiring. Using test stimulation, enlist patient feedback to verify lead
placement and pain coverage. The user may program with the Infinion 16 lead using all the functions
available in Bionic Navigator for the Linear family of leads (E-Troll, Navigator, etc.). For complete
instructions on programming, see the Bionic Navigator Software Guide or the Bionic Navigator HR
Software Guide.
