Otto Bock Meridium 1B1-2 Series Instructions For Use Manual page 68

Use
→ A confirmation signal will sound to indicate that the prosthesis has successfully switched to the corres­
ponding mode (2 times = MyMode 1, 3 times = MyMode 2, 4 times = MyMode 3).
INFORMATION: If this confirmation signal does not occur, weight was not placed on the prosthetic
foot correctly or not for enough time. Repeat the process to correctly switch to the required mode.
4) Remove the load from the prosthetic leg.
→ The mode has been changed.
5) Within 2 seconds, lower the prosthetic leg and assume the required position of the ankle angle.
→ At the end of this time, a signal will occur to indicate the locking of the ankle joint.
9.3.4 Switching from a MyMode back to basic mode
Information on switching
• Regardless of the configuration of additional MyModes in the adjustment software, it is always possible to
switch back to basic mode (mode 1) with a motion pattern.
• It is always possible to switch back to basic mode (mode 1) by connecting/disconnecting the battery charger.
• Before further activities, always check whether the selected mode corresponds to the required motion type.
• If the Volume parameter is set to "0" in the Cockpit app, there are no beep signals (see page 68).
Switching process
1) Hold the prosthetic leg under the body.
2) Using the heel of the prosthetic foot, knock on a solid obstacle behind you at least 3 times but no more than 5
times.
→ A beep and vibration signal will occur to confirm that the motion pattern has been recognised.
3) Lean the prosthetic foot slightly to the back and place weight on the forefoot.
INFORMATION: If the prosthetic foot is strongly dorsiflexed, weight can be placed on the heel.
→ A confirmation signal will sound to indicate that the prosthesis has successfully switched over to basic
mode.
INFORMATION: If this confirmation signal does not occur, weight was not placed on the prosthetic
foot correctly or not for enough time. Repeat the process to correctly switch to the required mode.
4) Remove the load from the prosthetic leg.
→ The mode has been changed.
• Before further activities, always check whether the selected mode corresponds to the required motion type.
9.4 Changing prosthesis settings
Once an active connection to a component has been established, the settings of the respective active mode can
be changed using the Cockpit app.
INFORMATION
Bluetooth on the prosthesis must be switched on to change the prosthesis settings.
If Bluetooth is switched off, it can be turned on by turning the prosthesis upside-down or by connecting/discon­
necting the battery charger. Bluetooth is then turned on for approx. 2 minutes. The connection must be estab­
lished during this period.
Information for changing the prosthesis settings
• Before changing settings, always check the main menu of the Cockpit app to make sure the correct component
has been selected. Otherwise parameters could be changed for the wrong component.
• It is not possible to change prosthesis settings nor to switch to a different mode while the prosthesis battery is
being charged. Only the status of the prosthesis can be called up. Instead of the
appears in the bottom row of the screen in the cockpit app.
• The O&P professional's setting is in the middle of the scale. After making adjustments, this setting can be
restored by tapping the "Standard" button in the Cockpit app.
• Prosthesis settings should be optimised using the adjustment software. The Cockpit app is not intended for
use by the O&P professional to set up the prosthesis. The patient can use the app to change the behaviour of
the prosthesis to a certain extent during everyday use (e.g. while becoming accustomed to the prosthesis). The
O&P professional can use the adjustment software to track these changes at the patient's next appointment.
• If the settings of a MyMode are to be modified, one must first switch to this MyMode.
