Measuring Impedances

Impedance values can be measured at each contact. From the Configuration screen, select the
Impedance button to measure impedances and display the Impedance screen.
Figure 17: Impedance Screen
The results of the Impedance measurement at each contact are displayed in terms of the Stimulator
port connections as seen in Figure 17. If desired, you can select the Measure button again to perform
another Impedance measurement.
A green circle indicates that the impedance measurement is less than the high impedance threshold
of the Stimulator being measured. An orange circle indicates that the measurement is above the high
impedance threshold of the Stimulator being measured with reduced accuracy. In Figure 17, Contacts
C1, C2, and D1-8 display impedances above the high impedance threshold of the Stimulator being
measured.
Note: High impedance values starting from Contact 1 on the A, B, C, or D ports may indicate that a
Lead is not properly seated in the OR Cable or IPG header. In Figure 17, the results for Port C and
D may indicate that the Lead was not fully inserted into the IPG header. For Stimulators with only 16
contacts, only Ports C and D will be shown.
To print the impedance measurements, select the Print button on the Impedance screen.
