Interrogating the Pacemaker
Before the programmer can display any information about the status of the
patient’s pacing system, you must interrogate the pacemaker. The informa-
tion you can retrieve by interrogating the pacemaker falls into three
categories:
1. Parameter settings
2. Real-time measurements of battery and lead data
3. Diagnostic data.
As described below, you can retrieve this information all at once or sepa-
rately as it is needed.
The INTERROGATE ALL Function
The Interrogate All feature retrieves all three types of information for use
during the patient session. This feature may be most helpful at the start of a
patient session, but it can be used at anytime during the session.
To execute the Interrogate All command:
1. Select the Pacing Parameters screen (see page 4-2 or 6-2).
NOTE: The Pacing Parameters screen is the first screen to appear
following model selection at the start of a patient session.
2. Position the programming head over the pacemaker.
3. Select the [
INTERROGATE ALL
] button. Continue to hold the program-
ming head steady until success of the interrogation is confirmed.
Auto Printout — An Interrogate All command automatically initiates
printing of the following data: 1) the present programmed pacing and
diagnostic parameter settings, 2) a data summary report which includes an
Event Summary, and 3) Battery/Lead status data. Accumulated diagnostic
data is not included in this printout.
