A solid yellow light on the Bioness L300 Go is not directly explained in the provided context. However, a red light with an error sound and a red square on the tablet typically indicates an "open electrode fault error." This can occur if:

1. An electrode is unplugged — ensure all electrodes are securely connected.
2. The wrong electrode type was selected — confirm the electrode type matches the system settings.

The solid yellow light may suggest a warning or fault, so checking electrode connections and settings may help resolve it.

If the issue persists, follow the device’s troubleshooting steps or refer to the manual.

The Bioness L300 Go device can be connected to an iPhone using the L300 Go Field Installer mobile application. This app is designed to install and update firmware for the L300 Go External Pulse Generators (EPGs). The connection likely uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), but you should consult your airline before using it during a flight. For detailed setup instructions, refer to the app or contact Bioness Client Support.

    Chapter Device Description Lower Leg FS Cuff The lower leg FS Cuff is an orthosis that fits on the leg below the knee and is designed to facilitate upward movement of the foot and toes. See Figure 5-1. The lower leg FS Cuff is available in right and left configurations and in two sizes (regular and small).

  • Page 29: Lower Leg Epg And Thigh Epg

    The thigh FS Cuff houses the EPG cradle, the thigh EPG, and integrated electrodes. It also features a locator used to accurately place the thigh FS Cuff on the leg and to ensure repeatable electrode contact. The thigh FS Cuff has adjustable straps that hold the cuff in place.
  • Page 30 Electrical stimulation can be controlled from controls on the EPG or wirelessly with the Control Unit. The EPG snaps into the EPG cradle on the respective cuff and should only be removed from the cradle for maintenance and when cleaning the cuffs. The EPG has four buttons, two indicator lights, and a rechargeable battery (lithium ion 1000 mAh battery).
