Foot drop system innoSTEP-WL – Gait mode

Gait mode

Thanks to the gait mode, the innoSTEP-WL is especially easy to use in everyday life: Advanced sensor technology and intelligent algorithms monitor and analyse the gait. The optimal time for triggering the stimulation of the nerve is determined on the basis of measured parameters every three steps. Sit down for starting the gait mode:

• If you use the cuff with integrated electrodes, make sure to moisten them throughoutly beforehand.
• To turn it on, push and hold the on/off button on front of the stimulation unit for a second.
• In order to turn the remote control on, push and hold the on/off button on the side of the remote control for a second. It automatically connects to the innoSTEP-WL.
• The walking figure indicates the gait mode, the sitting figure indicates the training mode.
• By pushing the mode button, you switch between gait and training mode.
• Once you have changed to gait mode, it is automatically on pause. Push the start/stop button, to start the gait mode.
• Use the plus and minus button, to adjust the intensity of the stimulation until the foot is raised. The stimulation should not be painful. If you hold the plus or minus button, the intensity changes in decimal steps.
• Stand up carefully and make the first stip with the unaffected leg.
• Push the mode button to instantly stop the stimulation.
