 28   Securing the EPG The following steps outline the suggested guidelines for securing the EPG to the patient: 1. Place the EPG into the provided pouch. 2. Remove the adhesive liner on the pouch flap. 3. Use the flap to secure the leads in place and seal the pouch. NOTE: The EPG meets the IP22 rating when sealed in the pouch. 4. Remove the adhesive liner on the back of the pouch and press the pouch onto the patient’s skin until it is secure. NOTE: It is good practice to secure the EPG pouch away from the lead entry site bandaging. NOTE: Leave some slack in the leads or extensions when securing the EPG onto the patient. 5. Use additional medical tape to secure the pouch and leads or extensions further as needed.  37-5284-015.pdf   34 10/3/2014   3:40:06 PM
 29   Programming the EPG Use the clinician programmer app to program the system for the trial period. For information on using the clinician programmer app for programming, refer to the clinician’s programming manual.  Caring for the EPG The EPG is an important part of the neurostimulation system. This section provides tips and other information about caring for the EPG.  Handling the EPG Do not expose the EPG to prolonged direct sunlight. Avoid exposing the EPG to sand, dust, and other environmental hazards. Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the EPG. Keep the EPG away from food and beverages, and avoid getting the EPG wet. If the EPG does get wet, do not use it. Contact Customer Service at +1-972-309-8000 for help.  Cleaning the EPG Using two PDI Sani-Cloths, wipe the EPG for 2 minutes front and back, then allow to air dry. Once the EPG is dry, attach the header cap. 37-5284-015.pdf   35 10/3/2014   3:40:06 PM
 30   NOTE: Clean the EPG before attaching the header cap. Clean the EPG by thoroughly wiping off its outer surface using the provided cleaning cloths. Do not wipe over the stimulator port. Do not submerge the EPG or use a cloth that is soaking wet. Never use ammonia, acidic, or alkaline cleaners or organic chemicals such as paint thinner, acetone, propyl alcohol, or kerosene. They may damage surface finishes of the EPG.  Storing and Transporting the EPG Store the EPG and batteries in a cool, dry place. Do not store the EPG or batteries in your car or garage. Transport the EPG in a carrying case. If you are carrying the EPG in a briefcase or other carrying case, make sure no objects in the case are pressing on the device. Store paired EPGs and patient controllers together to reduce the number of times you need to set up communication. At the end of a trial, disable stimulation, clean the EPG, and attach the header cap before storing the EPG. 37-5284-015.pdf   36 10/3/2014   3:40:06 PM

After the clinician programmer or patient controller is paired with a generator,   (Bluetooth symbol) is visible on the clinician programmer or patient controller in the upper right-hand corner. When the BLE connection is not active, the symbol is grayed out. The raw BLE data rate is approximately 2.5 KB/sec and the effective data rate is approximately 1.5 - 2 KB/sec. Other requirements include a semi-duplex transmission with a required acknowledge, a transmission latency in each direction (2x), and a receive-to-transmit mode (RX to TX) time. Data is resent if not sent successfully. Each key press may transmit up to 8 data packets, depending on the number of packets that need to be transmitted (i.e., if there is only one packet to transmit, only one packet will be transmitted).  Wireless Security Measures The wireless signals are secured through device system design that includes the following: The generator will encrypt its wireless communication. Only one patient controller or clinician programmer may communicate with the generator at the same time. A unique key for each unit that is checked during each transmission. Built-in pairing that specifies valid and legitimate pairing among units. Proprietary authentication in addition to the pairing procedure specified in Bluetooth low energy, which includes an element of proximity. 37-5284-015.pdf   48 10/3/2014   3:40:06 PM
 43   A proprietary algorithm that detects and prevents an unauthorized user from attempting to pair with the generator.  Troubleshooting for Wireless and Coexistence Issues If you experience issues with the wireless communication between the generator and the clinician programmer or patient controller, try the following: Decrease the distance between the devices Move the devices so they share line of sight Move the devices away from other devices that may be causing interference Wait a few minutes and try connecting again Do not operate other wireless devices (i.e., laptop, tablet, mobile phone, or cordless phone) at the same time NOTE: Wireless communications equipment, such as wireless home network devices, mobile and cordless telephones, and tablets, can affect the device.  37-5284-015.pdf   49 10/3/2014   3:40:06 PM
