2.1 Construction and Function
The E-MAG Active is an orthotic knee joint with stance phase control which offers you a free swing phase and
locks the knee joint for the stance phase prior to heel strike. The orthotic knee joint determines the position of your
leg with the help of the electronics and enables the swing phase. Read the 646D1043 "Quick start guide" regard­
ing this.
The E-MAG Active is an orthotic knee joint with a concealed locking mechanism, which means that the joint is less
susceptible to dirt and also prevents clothing from becoming trapped. Not only is this gentle on your clothing but,
above all, offers you enhanced safety.
The E-MAG Active has an additional locking function (PreLock) that is activated at 15° knee flexion. This secures
the orthotic knee joint before the swing phase ends. The orthotic knee joint is then fully locked when it reaches the
extension stop.
Two buttons allow you to electronically unlock the orthotic knee joint (once) or engage the lock (permanently). In
addition, the mechanical (temporary) unlocking feature supports a larger area of application, for example when
cycling. These instructions for use describe the functions and operation of the E-MAG Active as well as how to
charge it and care for it.
Your O&P professional will be happy to answer any technical questions you may have.
