Managing settings

It is possible to add, restore, and delete settings to the RHEO KNEE. You can find the different options in the file

menu.

When the settings are optimized for the user, select "Save Settings" (Figure 11). Select an existing user

from the drop-down menu or add a new one by clicking "Add." Select an existing setting from the

drop-down menu to overwrite previous settings or click "Add" to save new ones. If adding new ones, a

window will open up, where you can insert the name of the setting. Click "OK" to save the name. The

settings will show to the right, under stored user settings. Click "Save" to save the setting and close the

window.

If you want to activate or restore a previously saved setting, open "Restore Settings" from the file menu.

Select the correct user – then the correct setting. The settings are listed to the right. Click the "Restore"

button to activate the settings and close the window.

If a setting has been added, but you want to change the setting, change the relevant gait parameters and

make sure they are acceptable for the user. Open "Save Settings" from the file menu. Select the user –

then the setting you want to change – and click the "Save" button below. This will update the setting to

contain the new gait parameters.

Settings can be deleted by opening "Delete Settings" in the file menu. Select the correct user and the

correct setting, and press the "Delete" button.

The Activity Report allows the clinician to log and analyze the amputee's activity over time. The Activity Report

generates two measurements: the number of steps taken in the given period of time and at what speed. The

variable walking speeds and step counts are presented in graphs. The Activity Report can be generated as a PDF

file for saving into local databases or to be printed for the archive.

Make sure the RHEO KNEE is adjusted and aligned before starting the activity logging.

Note: Using the automatic adjustment tool will reset all previously logged information.

To start the logging, click "Reset Activity Monitor." The RHEO KNEE will automatically start saving the

step count. The steps taken during the log period will be shown in "Activity Report Step Count" (Figure

12).
