8.1.8 Walking down a ramp
Under increased flexion resistance, permit controlled flexion of the knee joint
which lowers the body's centre of gravity.
The swing phase is not triggered even though the knee joint is flexed.
8.1.9 Kneeling
Under increased flexion resistance, permit controlled flexion of the knee joint
to gradually reach the kneeling position. A hard impact of the knee joint on the
ground should be avoided so the electronics are not damaged.
Using the 4X860=* C-Leg protector is recommended for kneeling frequently.
8.2 MyModes
With the help of adjustment software, the prosthetist can activate and configure MyModes in addi
tion to the basic mode. These can be selected by using the cockpit app, the remote control
(optional accessory) or motion patterns. Switching by using motion patterns has to be activated in
the adjustment software by the prosthetist.
These modes are intended for specific motion patterns or postures (e.g. inline skating, ...). Set
tings can be adjusted using the cockpit app or remote control (see Page 60).
8.2.1 Switching MyModes with the cockpit app
INFORMATION
Bluetooth on the prosthesis must be turned on in order to use the cockpit app.
If Bluetooth is switched off, it can be turned on by turning the prosthesis upside-down or by
connecting/disconnecting the battery charger. Bluetooth is then turned on for approx. 2
minutes. During this time, the app must be started and used to establish a connection. If
required, Bluetooth on the prosthesis can be switched on permanently afterwards (see
Page 60).
Once a connection to a prosthesis has been established, the cockpit app can be used to switch
between the MyModes.
