5.2 9X53 4-Step Transducer
Pulling the cable of the 9X53 4-Step Transducer creates a c ontrol signal.
Depending on the step selected, signals are output at varying strengths. If the
prosthesis has been properly configured, the 4-Step Transducer will switch
between the various components. The 4-Step Transducer control signal is
at 0 Volts when released.

7 Installing the Electrode Cable (Fig. 2 to Fig. 5)
An electrode cable is not included in the Transducer delivery. It must be
ordered separately and can be shortened to meet individual requirements.
Electrode cables such as 13E129=G300, 13E129=G600 and 13E129=G1000
are compatible.
1) Liberally apply 633E11 Silicone Grease to the inner side of the Transducer
housing around the contact pins. The grease insulates the connector
against humidity (Fig. 2).
2) Guide the electrode cable (with the gray side facing upward) as far as it
will go into the connector (Fig. 3). Remove any excessive grease.
3) With the help of a screwdriver or similar tool, press the connector with
the inserted electrode cable as deeply as possible into the Transducer
(Fig. 4). The connection is now active.
