To access gesture control:
. Hold i-Limb hand parallel to the ground (elbow bent to °)
. Maintain an open signal until index finger twitches
. Move the i-Limb Quantum hand (within second) in direction assigned to the desired grip
. The i-Limb Quantum hand will adopt the grip
. To exit the grip, hold an open signal until the hand exits the grip
Default setting for gesture control is hold open, however it can alternatively be accessed using co-contraction. This
is changed using the My i-Limb app.
App Control (available on all i-Limb hands)
An automated grip can be accessed at the touch of an icon on the My i-Limb app. These are called quick grips. The
i-Limb hand will exit the grip when the icon is tapped again or by selecting another grip icon to enter.
Muscle Control (available on all i-Limb hands)
Triggers are specific muscle signals that can be used to access an automated grip. There are potential muscle
triggers: hold open, double impulse, triple impulse and co-contraction.
You can use the app to activate and program muscle control.
Proximity Control (available only on i-Limb Quantum hands)
Grip Chips are small Bluetooth devices which change the function of the i-Limb Quantum hand when the hand
comes close to them.
To use Grip Chips, make sure the i-Limb hand is not connected to the My i-Limb app.
Proximity
is accessed by holding the i-Limb hand fully opened near ( cm/ ”) to a Grip Chip. Wait until the grip is
accessed, which may take up to seconds. To exit a grip accessed via proximity control, give a long open signal.
Double tapping a Grip Chip activates the grip. Quickly tap a Grip Chip twice, just like double-clicking a computer
mouse. The LED on the Grip Chip flashes once when tapping is successful.
NOTE: a second pause between each double tap is required. The pause prevents the grip chip from incorrectly
detecting multiple taps in a very short period of time. This can cause the hand to enter a grip and then immediately
exit it again.
The i-Limb must be fully open/digits stalled open for proximity or tapping to be successful.
The individual Grip Chips are programmed using the My i-Limb app and can be reprogrammed by the user at any
time.
ILIMB HAND COVERS
Donning a Cover
To don a cover, bring i-Limb hand into the position shown in figure and turn the hand off. The position can also
be achieved using the don/doff quick grip.
Donning the i-Limb Skin Active, i-Limb Skin Contour and i-Limb Skin Natural covers:
. Line up cover with the fingers of the i-Limb hand, and slide cover downwards.
. When the fingers are mostly donned, pull the thumb opening over the thumb (Fig. ).
. Slide the remainder of the cover over the i-Limb hand (Fig. ).
. Make sure each digit tip is fitted to the cover.
. Do not pull the cover too tightly over the hand.
Donning the i-Limb Skin Match cover:
. Spray the outer surface with isopropyl alcohol (Fig. ).
. Invert the cover to the level of the finger openings (Fig. ).
