This chapter primarily addresses use of the tablet during an interactive programming session, that is,
when the clinician uses the wand for communication between the neurostimulator and tablet. For
information on using the PDMS apart from an interactive programming session, either using the tablet or
using a web browser on a personal computer, see Patient List on Tablet and the PDMS on a Personal
Computer on page 84.

When interacting with a patient, the tablet should be used on battery power only. Make sure the tablet is
sufficiently charged for use before powering on.
Press and hold the power button on the upper right side of the tablet. After 2-3 seconds, the tablet beeps
to indicate it is powering on.

Access to all of the functionality of the tablet requires an Internet connection and two logins, in this order:
1. Connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi or mobile broadband on the tablet. Mobile broadband works
automatically. To connect to Wi-Fi, see Steps to Connect to a Wi-Fi Network on page 12.
Alternatively, the tablet computer can also support use of a docking station that has an Ethernet
connector (wired connection). Contact NeuroPace customer service if you prefer this alternative.
2. Login to the tablet. NeuroPace provides the initial username and password for this login.
3. Login to the Patient Data Management System (PDMS), which requires the Internet
connection established in the first step. NeuroPace also provides the initial username and
password for the PDMS. (For PDMS access using a personal computer, select the PDMS link at
www.neuropace.com
Computer on page 85.)
Note: Programming functions that are typically performed in the operating room do not require an
Internet connection to the PDMS.
You can access all programming functions without connection to the PDMS except the following:
•
View stored information such as ECoGs, neurostimulator activity and settings for any patient
•
Make a new detection set or adjust parameters of a detection set
For details, see Functionality with and without a PDMS Connection on page 11.
