When switching to this settings screen, the flexion resistance is set to the value of the parameter "Safety mode
flexion resistance". When leaving this screen, the flexion resistance is set back to the value of the parameter
"Stance flexion resistance".

1) On the screen of the tablet, tap the symbol to activate training mode.
→ A confirmation signal sounds to indicate the switch to training mode.
2) The hydraulics stabilise the joint with high flexion resistance in the stance
phase and release the joint in the swing phase so that the leg can swing
forward freely.
Exit training mode by selecting a different MyMode or by turning the component
off and then on again.
In this MyMode, the joint is locked in its current position and cannot be moved
in the flexion nor the extension direction.
1) Flex or extend the knee joint to the angle where it should be locked.
2) On the screen of the tablet, tap the symbol to activate the lock.
→ A confirmation signal sounds to indicate activation of the lock.
3) The orthosis is locked in the flexion and extension directions.
Deactivate the lock by selecting a different MyMode/basic mode or by turning
the component off and then on again.
This MyMode is individually configurable. Tap this MyMode to configure the
settings.
Parameter "Basic Flexion Resistance"
This parameter is used to set the initial resistance at the start of flexing the knee
joint. The higher the value, the greater the resistance against flexing the joint.
Parameter "Flexion resistance increase"
This parameter is used to set the increase in the flexion resistance (starting
from the parameter "Basic Flexion Resistance") while flexing the knee joint.
The flexion resistance increases continuously along with the flexion angle until
the knee joint locks at a certain flexion angle. Thus the flexion angle at which
the knee joint locks depends on the settings for the parameters "Basic Flexion
Resistance" and "Flexion resistance increase".
