7.2.2 Interrogating the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG
To read the parameter values of the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG:
1. Place (or replace, if necessary) the Legacy Programming Wand over the
OPTIMIZER Smart IPG implant site.
2. Perform one of the following actions:
a. Press the Interrogate button on the Legacy Programming Wand, or
b. Tap the Interrogate button on the Tool Bar, or
c. Tap the Interrogate button on the Programming Bar
If the interrogation is successful, the Optimizer Smart Programmer application will display
the message "Interrogation OK". The device model, serial number, current CCM therapy
status, and current battery level of the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG being interrogated will
appear on the Device Bar of the Programmer's screen.
However, if the Legacy Programming Wand is not well positioned over the implant site,
the interrogation operation may fail. If a failure in communication occurs, the Programmer
will display the message "Interrogation Error" along with the options Retry and Cancel.
Retry can be performed by repositioning the Legacy Programming Wand and selecting
the Retry button or by pressing the Interrogate button located on the Legacy
Programming Wand.
7.3 Modifying Parameter Values
Parameter values are displayed in two different ways:
•
For enabling/disabling parameters (such as CCM Channels), checkboxes are used, and
a  symbol indicates that the option is selected. To change the option, select the box to
the left of the parameter name.
•
For parameters that have a set of possible values, the parameter value is displayed in a
box. In order to modify the (programmer) value of such parameters, select the value in
the box and a window with all the possible values for the selected parameter will appear.
To modify the value of the parameter, select the new value in the list. In addition, the
value list windows have a "pin" on their top left corner. Selecting this pin keeps the
window open (otherwise, the window will close automatically after a value is selected).
Tapping the X at the top right corner to close a value list window that has the pin
activated.
Some parameters directly depend on others (such as rates and periods). In such cases,
modifying the value of a parameter will automatically modify the value of parameters that directly
depend on it.
There also are parameters for which values are valid only when some other parameters are
enabled or have certain values [for instance, if the operating mode of the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG
is set to Standby (OOO), then no parameters are valid]. When the setting of a parameter is
meaningless in the context of other parameters, its value is not displayed.
When a parameter value is selected that is incompatible with other parameter values, a
parameter conflict occurs. When such situations arise, an error message is displayed in the
Parameter Conflict Bar (See Section 7.1.9 for more information). As long as there is a parameter
conflict, the Optimizer Smart Programmer application will not allow the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG to
be programmed with new parameter values. This ensures that only compatible parameter
configurations can be downloaded to the OPTIMIZER Smart IPG. To resolve the conflict, new
values must be selected for the parameters in conflict.
Please recall that parameter values seen on the screen are the programmer values, which can be
different from the current device values. For information on the color convention employed, see
Section 7.3.1.
