TROUBLESHOOTING
See below regarding steps to take for the most commonly experienced problems. If these actions
do not fix the problem, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section in the Remote Monitor Manual.
Problem What To Do
Remote monitor does
not turn on when you
press the power switch.
Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the wall
outlet and into the correct port on the remote monitor.
If using the remote monitor battery for power, make sure it is
fully charged.
The wand signal
strength is very low,
absent, or the signal is
inconsistent.
• Make sure the wand is properly connected to the remote
monitor and that you have positioned the cupped side of
the wand directly over of the neurostimulator.
• Move the wand closer to the neurostimulator to see if signal
quality improves.
• Try unplugging the remote monitor from the wall outlet.
Make sure the battery is charged before doing so.
• Try moving the remote monitor to another location.
Wi-Fi is connected but
the remote monitor is
unable to upload data
to the PDMS.
• This could happen when the Wi-Fi network requires you to enter
information in a web browser to connect to the Internet, as at some
hotels and other businesses. Since the remote monitor does not
provide a web browser, you must select another Wi-Fi network to
upload your data to the PDMS.
REMOTE MONITOR BASICS
All gray bars mean the tablet
is not connected to Wi-Fi,
but Wi-Fi is on. This is how it
looks when you first set up
the tablet, until you connect
to a Wi-Fi network. Touch to
view available Wi-Fi networks
and connect.
Black bars mean Wi-Fi is connected to
a wireless network. The lock symbol
(as shown) means the network requires
a password. The tablet remembers
passwords and connects automatically
to networks you have connected
to before. More black bars indicate
greater Wi-Fi signal strength.
“OFF” with gray bars
means Wi-Fi is o. Wi-Fi is
on by default and should
not be turned o. If it is o,
touch to access the Wi-Fi
On/O button and turn on
Wi-Fi.
WI-FI BUTTON ON THE HOME SCREEN
TURN OFF THE REMOTE MONITOR
When you are finished using
the remote monitor, be sure
to turn it o. This will help
conserve tablet battery
power and electricity when
not in use.
1 On the Home screen, touch the Power
button.
2 Touch the Shutdown button to confirm
you want to turn the remote monitor o.
