3. Optionally, you may change the stimulation parameters displayed in the Implant Settings
menu. See Section 4.3: Implant Settings.
4. After all desired parameters have been set, press the Download Settings to IPG button
to download the chosen parameters to the implant.
Once the IPG is programmed to respond to the magnet, it is no longer necessary for the patient
to be in close proximity to the WT as there is no longer communication required between SAPS
and the IPG to trigger stimulation during a task. To trigger stimulation in Magnet Mode, the
magnet must be swiped across the patient’s chest where the IPG is located.
Parameters programmed for Magnet Mode are reflected in the Entire Session VNS Scheduler
menu (see Section 5.2: Entire Session VNS Scheduler) and vice versa.
