Operating Modes
Standby mode
The system is ON, and waiting for commands. Stimulation is not applied in
Standby mode.
Gait mode
Select this mode for walking. In Gait mode the stimulation is synchronized
by the Foot Sensor, in order to achieve foot lifting while the foot is in the air
and foot rest while the foot is on the ground.
Training mode
Select this mode for muscle training while you are sitting or lying down. The
purpose of the training mode is to facilitate muscle re-education, prevent
retard disuse atrophy of the calf muscles, maintain or improve range of
motion of the ankle joint and improve local blood circulation.
In the training mode the stimulation is applied in pre-determined cycles
adjusted by your clinician and works independently of the Foot Sensor.
The training mode can also be used to check if the Orthosis was
placed accurately on the leg. If the foot does not respond to the
stimulation as it should, reposition the Orthosis.
