9. USING ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK
SORIN ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK U386A
11
Quitting the programming session reduces battery consumption and
optimizes device longevity.
9.3 ENSURING STABLE RF COMMUNICATION
For stable RF communication between ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK and the implantable
medical device, it is recommended to position ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK in order to light at
least 4 LEDs.
It is highly recommended to obtain stable communication before
performing device tests such as pacing and defibrillation threshold tests.
Keep the space clear between the ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK and the
implantable medical device, and do not cover the implanted device when
performing defibrillation threshold tests.
In some cases the RF communication can be disturbed and disrupted (see Troubleshooting
section 10).
When RF communication is disrupted Orchestra Plus will automatically try to restore it.
During RF communication restoration, the RF link LED will blink.
9.4 ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK SOFTWARE UPDATE
ORCHESTRA PLUS LINK software update, if
any, will start automatically after connection to
Orchestra Plus. (Orchestra Plus shall be on.)
During the update the functioning status LED
is green and the RF signal strength LEDs
indicate the action in-progress by blinking
sequentially.
