The buttons on the Welcome screen initiate functions such as programming the implant,
initiating On-Demand Mode, or accessing the Patient Log File. For example, the Program
Implant button sends a signal from the WT to the IPG to update the IPG settings with those
currently saved in the SAPS.
The tabs at the top of any screen allow the physician to manage the settings of each function.
For example, the Program Implant tab allows the physician to review and edit the IPG settings.
3.2 Parameter Text Color
When changing parameters for therapy, blue text indicates settings that have not been saved to
the IPG (i.e., the Download to IPG button has not been pressed), and black text indicates
settings that have been saved to the IPG. In Figure 3.4 below, Frequency, Train Duration,
Pulse Width, Train Period, and Magnet Mode have been saved to the IPG, while Amplitude
has not.

3.3 Overview of SAPS Menus (Tabs) Used for Therapy
Each tab at the top of the SAPS screen corresponds to a particular capability of the system,
denoted by the tab’s name.
NOTE: See Figure 3.3 for the location of the menus and the corresponding buttons used to
access the menus described in this section.
CAUTION: New parameters and therapy modes are not input into the IPG and remain
blue in color until the Test function or the Download Settings to IPG function is used.
Always verify that the intended parameters and therapy modes are programmed into the
IPG. The suggested method of doing so is by interrogating the IPG and comparing the
displayed values to those intended to be programmed. Properly programmed parameters
and therapy modes display black in color.
3.3.1 Program Implant Overview
The first tab, Program Implant, is used by the physician or therapist to set the patient
information, stimulation settings, and therapy mode(s) and allows for impedance checks during
implant and follow-up visits. See Section 4: Programming the Implant for more detail.
