Connecting the OR Cable
Assembly
The OR cable assembly is designed for
temporary connection of a lead to the Trial
Stimulator. A cable extension is provided.
When using a Splitter 2x8 prepare two OR
Cable Assemblies.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the OR cable
connector or plug in water or other liquids.
The OR Cable Assembly is intended for
one-time only use; do not resterilize.
1. If two leads are being implanted, wrap the
non-sterile "1-L" and "2-R" labels around
the cables at the Trial Stimulator to identify
lead connections.
2. Verify that the Trial Stimulator is off.
CAUTION: Always turn the Trial Stimulator
off before connecting or disconnecting the
cable assemblies.
3. Check that the locking lever on the OR
cable connector is in the open position,
marked "0".
4. For Percutaneous Leads, remove the
steering cap from the stylet and slide the
proximal end of the lead with stylet, or
splitter, into the open port on the OR cable
connector.
5. Push the end of the lead or splitter into the
port until it stops. Hold the lead in place
while sliding the lever to the locked posi-
tion, marked "1".

6. Plug the OR Cable Assembly into the cor-
responding Trial Stimulator port(s) labeled
"1-L" (left) and "2-R" (right).
Superior (upper or left) leads connect to
port "1-L". Inferior (lower or right) leads
connect to port "2-R". If only a single lead
is being used, connect it to "1-L".
Note: If using a Splitter 2x8, connect the
cable labeled "1-L" to the laser-
marked tail, and the cable labeled
"2-R" to the unmarked tail.
7. Proceed to the instructions for "Intraopera-
tive Stimulation Testing" page 25.
