Wait for the heart rate display to stabilize (at least 10 seconds) and compare
the generator-detected heart rate displayed on the Programmer with an
independent source (such as BPM from another ECG monitor or a manual
pulse count). Accurate detection should be within ±5 BPM or 10%. If the
heart rate reported by the Programmer is too high, then the Heartbeat
Detection setting should be adjusted downward (toward setting 1). If the
heart rate reported by the Programmer is too low or displays “?? BPM”,
then the Heartbeat Detection setting should be adjusted upward (toward
setting 5). Refer to “Troubleshooting” in the Physician’s Manual for more
information

If the heartbeat detection is verified before the two minute test completes,
keep the Wand over the generator and select STOP on the screen. Once you
observe accurate heartbeat detection, you have completed the verification
process. If you are enabling Detection, select NEXT to set the AutoStim
Threshold. Otherwise, select DONE to return to the Parameter Screen
