Problem Possible Cause and Solution
Cannot increase or decrease the strength,
amplitude, frequency, or pulse width for
a program.
Increasing or decreasing the value is outside the allowed range.
Adjust the maximum value for the range. Refer to Subprogram on page 30.
e amplitude may be exceeding maximum values; an electrode cannot exceed 15 mA and
a subprogram cannot exceed 30 mA.
Adjust the electrode conguration for optimal stimulation. Refer to Subprogram on page
30.
e maximum value for the amplitude, frequency, or pulse width range may have been
reached.
Adjust the maximum value for the range. For more information, refer to Subprogram on page
30.
e subprogram may have reached the charge density or lead limits.
Adjust the range for the amplitude, frequency, and pulse width. ese parameters are related;
adjusting the value of one of these parameters may aect the value of another parameter to
stay within charge density and lead limits.
Cannot change the amplitude on an
electrode.
e electrode is locked or there are not two electrodes of the same polarity.
Change the electrode conguration. Refer to Subprogram on page 30.
Trouble communicating with a
stimulator.
Environmental conditions for the stimulator changed.
Auto tune the stimulator. Refer to Auto Tune on page 45.
