Programming the Neurostimulator
Electrode Configuration

The CP provides the ability to switch between monopolar and
bipolar stimulation modes, to use automatically generated

recommended electrode configurations, and to manually set
which electrodes are active and inactive stimulation.

Monopolar vs Bipolar Stimulation
The Programming screen allows the electrode configuration
to be set to be "Monopolar" or "Bipolar" ( 1 ). If "Monopolar"
is selected, the Neurostimulator is set as the anode and tined
4
lead electrodes can only be assigned as cathodes. If "Bipolar" is
selected, a tined lead electrode must be selected as an anode to
deliver stimulation.
Electrode Recommendations
The Programming screen displays up to four recommended
electrode configurations ( 2 ). These recommendations are
intended to provide directional guidance regarding which
electrode configurations to test. The recommendations are
generated based on the stimulation thresholds and motor and
sensory responses recorded during tined lead placement or
subsequent redefining of the thresholds. Ultimately, electrode
configuration selection should be based on patient comfort
and symptom reduction. To set the electrode configuration
to a recommended configuration, press the image of the
recommendation.
Note: If thresholds are note saved to the Neurostimulator default electrode
recommendations are provided.
