WARNING
Programming should only be carried out by a suitably qualified practitioner.
Incorrect configuration could result in an accident and severe injury.
Prior to setting up a device, install the Linx Programming App on a suitable iOS or Android
programming device, e.g. phone or tablet that supports Bluetooth® (see Appendix 1 for iOS and
Appendix 2 for Android).
The device is set-up, i.e. the limb's onboard program settings are configured and fine-tuned to
suit a specific user's requirements, using the offboard Linx Programming App over a Bluetooth®
connection (see Section 9.1).
However if access to the App is unavailable, then the device may be set-up directly using Button
Programming via buttons on the back of the knee (see Section 9.2).
Before setting up the device ensure that the battery is charged and it is switched on.
