Custom Mode
Custom Mode allows you to assign a percentage of anodic or cathodic current to individual
contacts and the case.
To program the DB2201-Standard Lead and the DB2202-Directional Lead in Custom Mode:
1. Select Custom Mode.
2. Select the case or contact that you want to adjust. If it was blank, one tap will assign it
as an anode (+). Another tap will reassign it as a cathode (-). Another tap will reassign it
as OFF (blank). Tapping on a contact that already is assigned will first select it without
changing the polarity.
Note: Changing the contact polarities will reset the amplitude to zero.
3. Select the + and – buttons for the Contact to adjust the percentage of anodic or cathodic
current assigned to the selected Contact
Note: When using the External Trial Stimulator (ETS), monopolar configurations are not
possible since the ETS "case" cannot be assigned as a cathode or anode.
Turning Stimulation OFF for Individual Areas
To turn stimulation OFF for Individual Areas:
1. Make sure the Area you wish to turn OFF is selected by clicking on the appropriate Area on
the Area Panel
2. Select the Stimulation OFF switch to turn Stimulation OFF
Note: When the Amplitude is at 0 mA, increase the Amplitude to turn ON stimulation.
Turning All Stimulation OFF
Selecting the
button will stop stimulation for all active Areas. This function is only meant for
turning all Stimulation OFF. To turn Stimulation ON, select each Area that you want to turn ON and
select the Stimulation ON/OFF switch.
Increasing and Decreasing the Amplitude
Amplitude is measured in milliamperes (mA). The default setting for Amplitude is 0 mA and the
range is 0-20 mA.
To increase or decrease the Amplitude:
1. Use the + and – buttons labeled Total Amplitude to increase or decrease Amplitude
2. The default step size for Amplitude changes is 0.1mA. You can change the step size to
0.5mA using the Step Size buttons
Note: High stimulation levels can cause permanent tissue damage. A message will pop-up
notifying you if you attempt to exceed a stimulation limit and settings that exceed this limit
are not allowed.
