TROUBLESHOOTING (cont.)
PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY
Pain at the electrode
site
 Incorrectly placed electrodes too close
together
 Stop treatment
 Remove electrodes
 Reposition electrodes after increasing the distance
between electrodes
Patient feels surging or
spiking sensation
during Combination
Therapy
 Lead wire(s): short or breakage
 Non-conductive or poorly conductive
electrodes
 The current is still running during
electrode removal
 Replace with correct and adequate conductive medium
 Remove electrode(s) and replace if necessary
 Check that the channel output on the display is zero
prior to removing electrodes
 After pressing PAUSE do not remove electrodes for 3
seconds to allow any remaining capacitance to
dissipate
Patient cannot detect
output
 Failure of lead wire(s), electrode(s)
 Non-conductive or poorly conductive
electrodes
 Failure of the stimulator
 Test and Replace lead wires if required
 Remove electrode(s) and replace if necessary
 Perform auto tests on stimulator, if fault condition shown
on the screen send unit to service center for
replacement - repair
ACP Lead Wire Test
ACP lead wires can be tested to assure they are properly
conducting current. The Lead Wire Test is found on page
2 of the of System Settings screen.
