S8 MODULES
Note: Do not remove modules while power is connected to the S8 Escape.
Your
S8 ESCAPE will have one of two modules fitted to the back: a blank module or a
RESSCAN Data Card module.
USING A BLANK MODULE
Please refer to the illustrations in section F of the illustration sheet.
The blank module is a protective cover on the
S8 ESCAPE. At times, you may wish to
remove or attach this module, for example to use the serial adapter.
To remove the blank module, pull it off the back of the
S8 ESCAPE to show the data
communications port (F-1).
To attach the blank module, push the blank module onto the data communications
port, until the module clicks into place (F-2).
Note: To protect the data communications port, always ensure there is a module
attached to the device.
USING A RESSCAN DATA CARD MODULE
Please refer to the illustrations in section G of the illustration sheet.
The
RESSCAN Data Card module is an accessory to the S8 ESCAPE. Use a RESSCAN
Data
Card with the Data Card module to collect data and update settings in the
S8 ESCAPE.
The module and card give your clinician convenient access to data about your
treatment, and can provide you with new device settings from your clinician without
you having to leave home.
ATTACHING THE MODULE
To attach the Data Card module, push it onto the data communications port at the
back of your
S8 ESCAPE until it clicks into place (G-1).
REMOVING THE MODULE
To remove the Data Card module, pull it off the back of the S8 ESCAPE (G-2).
Note: To protect the data communications port, always ensure there is a module
attached to the device.
USING THE DATA CARD TO COLLECT DATA
Please refer to the illustrations in section H of the illustration sheet.
If your clinician needs to review your treatment, they will ask you to use the Data Card
to copy data from your
S8 ESCAPE, and to return the card to them. The Data Card will
be provided in a convenient mailback envelope.
Data that is copied to a Data Card is still stored and available on the
S8 ESCAPE.
It takes approximately five seconds to copy data onto the Data Card.
