    • The tips of the feet are level and the feet are positioned symmetrically. 2. Measurements of 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint which are checked in the X-Soft adjustment software: • The prosthetic leg is loaded with at least 35% of the bodyweight.
  • Page 27 INFORMATION Due to the individual habits of the patient and because no information on the alignment in the frontal plane is inclu- ded in the calculation, the optimisation recommendations should be viewed primarily as guidelines that may include inapplicable or even contradictory information in some isolated cases (see Section 11 "Legal Nots, Liability and CE Conformity for X-Soft").

  • Page 28: Configuring The Prosthesis Control Via X-Soft

    INFORMATION When the patient becomes accustomed to the new prosthesis, his/her gait pattern will change. It is therefore ad- visable to perform the complete configuration process again approx. two weeks after initial fitting with the 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint.
  • Page 29 (see Section 9 "Important Information for Users"). • Heed the vibration signals and audible warning signals (beeps) of the 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint. • Particular caution is required when carrying children down stairs.

  • Page 30: Adjusting The Swing Phase Control

    5.2.2  Adjusting the Swing Phase Control Swing phase control influences the amount of time it takes for the prosthetic leg to swing through to an extended position, as well as the ground clearance during the swing. Swing phase control therefore influences the symmetry of the gait pattern. Swing phase angle: The swing phase angle at which the knee starts to extend again is approx.

  • Page 31: Functions In Basic Mode

    If the patient is in a sitting position for more than five seconds, i.e., the thigh is close to horizontal and the leg is not loaded, the 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint switches the resistance to a minimum in both the flexion and extension directions.
  • Page 32 Alternating stair ascent Although the 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint is a passive knee joint, i.e. cannot perform any active motions of its own accord, alternating stair ascent is possible using the 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint. To use this function you must first place the prosthetic foot on the next step up with a bent knee.

  • Page 33: Selecting Mymodes

    Running function The 3B5-X2 / 3B5-X2=ST Knee Joint detects a transition from walking to running and reacts accordingly by switching into a swing phase with a larger swing angle appropriate for running and zero preflex angle. The running function will work with specialized running feet such as the 1E90 Sprinter as well as with prosthetic feet with axial compression such as the 1C61 Triton Vertical Shock.
  • Page 35 This data is required for communication with the remote control. INFORMATION Running requires the usage of a running foot such as the 1E90 Otto Bock Sprinter. For details on assembly and alignment please refer to the Instructions for Use of the foot.
