incline.
Ramp Descent
Walking down
ramp
Helps reduce
forward

provides greater
stability and

Standing Mode
Standing
Increases

standing still.
Any Low battery
power
*Ramp detection depends on gait, starting, stopping, accelerating and decelerating and any of these can
delay response.
Knee module
Alternates stance (high
yield resistance) to free
swing (low resistance) and
pneumatic swing control
adjusts for cadence
variation.
Excessive heel rise is
also actively damped
hydraulically preventing
excessive heel rise
associated with sudden
cadence variation.
Progressively changes
hydraulic damping and
pneumatic assist to assist
up the ramp; adjusts for
cadence variation.
Moves from a high yield
resistance, through an
intermediate resistance
then to free swing (low
resistance) and adjusts for
cadence variation.
Very high resistance in knee and ankle ( activates after
1-1.5 seconds).
High resistance (No
dynamic control)
10
Foot module
Slightly dorsiflexed during
swing
Basic resistance settings
in plantarflexion and
dorsiflexion
Progressively changes* stiffer
plantarflexion and lower
dorsiflexion resistance to
assist up the ramp.
Progressively changes*
decreasing plantarflexion
and increasing dorsiflexion
resistance to provide a
braking action down the
ramp.
Reverts to basic
plantarflexion & dorsiflexion
resistance settings.
