5. THE PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The programmer software consists of the ‘Manager’ software and of application software
‘Modules’ which are specific for each implantable cardiac device.
After starting the programmer, the home screen of the ‘Manager’ software will be displayed:
This screen allows you to perform the following actions:
― View, enter, import and export data to/from the programmer’s ‘Manager’ software.
Choose the relevant tabs in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
― Program the implanted patient device in nominal mode using the ‘Red Cross’ button in
the top right corner of the screen.
― Interrogate the implantable patient device by pressing the ‘Interrogate’ button. This
action will open the associated Application Software ‘Module’ for the interrogated patient
implant.
See an example of an application software ‘Module’ screen for an implantable device below:
The application software ‘Module’ allows interrogation, programming and testing of the
implantable patient device.
INITIAL INSTALLATION OF THE PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE
Before using the programmer for the first time, the programmer software needs to be installed
on the tablet. In order to do so, please perform the steps described below. It is recommended
to keep the tablet connected to a power supply during the software installation.

region where the programmer will be operated and press the “Next” button.
3. A pop-up window will request a confirmation of the chosen geographical region in order
to ensure that the correct region was selected. Please check that the selected region is
correct and confirm by pressing “Yes”. In case an incorrect region was selected, press
“No” and return to the previous screen to correct the region entered.
WARNING: In case an incorrect geographical region is installed, the programmer has to be
returned to the manufacturer. Please contact your company representative for further
instructions.
4. After selecting and confirming the correct geographical region, you will be asked to enter
the time zone, local date and time. After doing so, press “Next” and confirm the entry in
the displayed pop-up window.
5. Insert the USB key that has been provided by the manufacturer in the USB port at the left
side of the tablet. Press “Next”.
