2) Using the heel of the prosthetic foot, knock on a solid obstacle behind you (e.g. a wall)
according to the number of the configured MyMode (MyMode 1 = 3 times, MyMode 2 = 4
times, MyMode 3 = 5 times). This can also be done by tapping against the tip of the shoe of
the contralateral leg.
→ A beep and vibration signal will sound to confirm that the motion pattern has been recog
nised.
3) Lean the prosthetic foot slightly to the back and place weight on the forefoot.
INFORMATION: If the prosthetic foot is strongly dorsiflexed, weight can be placed on
the heel.
4) Hold the prosthetic leg still.
→ A confirmation signal will sound to indicate that the foot successfully switched to the cor
responding mode (2 times = mode 2, 3 times = mode 3, 4 times = mode 4).
INFORMATION: If this confirmation signal does not sound, weight was not taken
off the prosthetic foot correctly or was not taken off for enough time. Repeat the
process to correctly switch to the desired mode.
5) Within 2 seconds, lower the prosthetic leg and assume the required position of the ankle
angle.
→ At the end of this time, a signal will sound to indicate the locking of the ankle joint.
8.3.4 Switching from a MyMode back to basic mode
Information on switching
•
Regardless of the configuration of additional MyModes in the adjustment software, it is always
possible to switch back to basic mode (mode 1) with a motion pattern.
•
It is always possible to switch back to basic mode (mode 1) by connecting/disconnecting the
battery charger.
•
Before further activities, always check whether the selected mode corresponds to the
required motion type.
Switching process
1) Hold the prosthetic leg under the body.
2) Using the heel of the prosthetic foot, knock on a solid obstacle behind you at least 3 times but
no more than 5 times.
→ A beep and vibration signal will sound to confirm that the motion pattern has been recog
nised.
3) Lean the prosthetic foot slightly to the back and place weight on the forefoot.
INFORMATION: If the prosthetic foot is strongly dorsiflexed, weight can be placed on
the heel.
4) Hold the prosthetic leg still.
→ A confirmation signal will sound to indicate that the foot has successfully switched over to
basic mode.
INFORMATION: If this confirmation signal does not sound, weight was not placed on
the prosthetic foot correctly or not for enough time. Repeat the process to correctly
switch to the desired mode.
•
Before the first step, always check whether the selected mode corresponds to the required
motion type.
8.4 Changing prosthesis settings
Once an active connection to a prosthesis has been established, the settings of the mode cur
rently active can be changed using the cockpit app or the remote control (optional accessory).
INFORMATION
Bluetooth on the prosthesis must be switched on to change the prosthesis settings.
If Bluetooth is switched off, it can be turned on by turning the prosthesis upside-down or by
