Impedance measurement is high. Lead is not connected properly. Check that the lead is fully
inserted in the IPG header,
and measure the impedance
again.
Troubleshoong Chart for Postoperave Programming
The following table idenes soluons for problems that could occur during postoperave programming.
Table 8. Troubleshoong during postoperave programming
Problem Possible Cause Possible Soluon
No Programmer Power
Programmer has no power and
does not show anything on the
screen.
Programmer power is o or has med
out aer one minute of inacvity.
Press the Power key.
Baeries are depleted. Replace the programmer
baeries.
Baery pack or baeries are not
inserted properly.
Reinsert the baery pack or
baeries properly.
Programmer is damaged. Contact Technical Support.
No Smulaon
Paent does not feel smulaon as
amplitude is increased.
Programmer is in browse mode. Allow the programmer to
turn o. Turn on the
programmer and establish
communicaon with the IPG.
Program did not load correctly. Edit the program or select
another one.
Paent is using a BurstDR smulaon
program.
Ensure that the selected
program is a BurstDR
smulaon program.
Electrode polarity selecon does not
include at least 1 posive (+) and
1 negave (-) polarity.
Ensure that at least
1 posive (+) and 1 negave
(-) polarity are selected for
each sm set.
Lead is damaged or malfunconing. Test the lead for an electrical
circuit using the
programmer.
Amplitude is set too low. Increase amplitude unl
comfortable smulaon is
achieved.
IPG is in the cycle or bolus o phase. Check to see if the IPG is in
cycle or bolus o phase.
Wait unl the phase is
completed.
IPG is in MRI mode. Turn o MRI mode.
IPG power is o. Check to see that the IPG
power is on.
