Changing Groups

Notes

• You will need your communicator held over your neurostimulator for this.
• Your clinician may have set up groups, which are preset therapy options that you can choose from. If available, changing groups is a way for you to quickly adjust your therapy.

After choosing a group, the THERAPY screen for that group will appear. This means you have successfully changed groups.

Adjusting Stimulation

Notes

• You will need your communicator held over your neurostimulator for this.
• If it is available to you, you can raise and lower the level of your therapy. You may not be able to adjust therapy. Your DBS clinician will decide whether to provide you with this option.
• Your clinician may have used Group Naming if the feature is available (dependent upon the software version of your handset)

1. On the HOME screen, tap THERAPY.
2. Adjust your therapy up and down using the arrow buttons.

• If an arrow turns gray, you cannot adjust therapy any further in that direction.
• Between the arrow buttons, Left is the left side of your body and Right is the right side.
