5. The Remote Control can be turned off by selecting and confirming "Power off".
In order to change the settings of another MyMode, you first have to switch to that MyMode (see the
section MyMode Switching with the Remote Control).
INFORMATION
The prosthetist's setting is usually found in the middle of the scale. After adjustment, you can reset
the prosthetist's setting by moving the slider control into the middle.
INFORMATION
The knee joint settings should be optimised by the prosthetist with the help of the X-Soft configuration
software. The Remote Control is not intended for use by the prosthetist in order to set up the knee
joint. The behaviour of the prosthesis can be changed to a certain extent on a day-to-day basis using
the Remote Control (e.g. while becoming accustomed to the prosthesis). At the next appointment,
the prosthetist can track the changes in the X-Soft configuration software.
The table below shows the adjustment parameters for the individual MyModes along with a brief de-
scription, the adjustment range of the Remote Control around the value selected by the prosthetist and
the absolute value range.
