Where to Place Your Communicator
Place your Communicator:
• Near an electrical outlet that is easily accessible.
• Within 3 m (10 ft) from your bedside or where you sleep. If
this is not possible, place your Communicator where you
spend a considerable amount of time each day.
• Where you can sit comfortably and see the front of the
Communicator.
• Where the Communicator and all its cables and accessories
will be kept dry and not exposed to humidity or potential
water contact.
• Refer to the following sections for more placement advice
depending on your connection method:
• "Cellular Connection" on page 35
• "Internet Connection" on page 40
• "Standard Telephone Connection" on page 43
• Some household appliances and other sources of
electromagnetic energy could interfere with wireless
communication between the Communicator and your
implanted device. When you are using the Communicator, it
should be at least 30 cm (12 in) away from televisions, digital
video disc (DVD) players, personal computers, modems,
routers, microwaves, and other electronic equipment.
• If you have an S-ICD implanted device supported on
LATITUDE, the wireless communication between the
Communicator and your S-ICD is sensitive to distance
and orientation. You may need to move closer to the
Communicator, or you may need to position your body
such that a clear signal exists between your S-ICD and the
Communicator. If you need assistance, contact LATITUDE
Support at the telephone number for your country listed on
page 75.
