TO START THIS STYLE OF CALIBRATION:
•
Press and hold the button for two seconds until you hear it beep once.
•
Release your hold on the button, and your prosthesis will begin to move on its own.
•
The following minute or so is what Coapt calls Prosthesis Guided Calibration (PGC). PGC is when the
prosthesis goes through a sequence of motions on its own (like it is being remotely controlled) and you
simply follow along with your corresponding muscle contractions. For example, if the prosthetic wrist is
turning up, hold your intended muscle motion for an upward wrist. Same for hand actions, and so on. As
you hold these corresponding muscle signal contractions, Coapt PGC is recording, building, and
adapting the pattern recognition memory to match.
•
Once PGC goes through all of its pre-selected motions (these are settable in the Coapt
Complete
ControlRoom
application), it will sound a short jingle and then return prosthesis control to you.
This is when it’s great to see if the
Control Coach

white LED is blinking. If so,
Control Coach

has useful calibration performance info waiting in the Coapt
Complete ControlRoom
application.
