Charger Error Codes

Numeric Code Code Description Source IPG Rechargeable? (Y/N) Suggested Action
0 IPG deactivated EMI or internal software conflict N Prompt follow-up for assessment and reactivation
1 Lead impedance change Normal post-implant change vs. lead malfunction Y Prompt follow-up if message persistently recurring
2 CCM inactive Exposure to strong magnetic field or high current condition with low impedance Y Prompt follow-up for impedance evaluation
3 CCM delivery not programmed CCM turned off or in “standby” Y Prompt follow-up for reactivation
4 % CCM therapy low Sensing changes, arrhythmia, or lead malfunction Y Prompt follow-up for arrhythmia management, mode, sensing, impedance, and/or detection window adjustment
5 Optimizer Smart™ temperature issue Febrile illness or abnormal IPG/charger interaction Not suggested Pause charging, prompt follow-up, physical exam
6 Internal charger fault Charger malfunction N Prompt follow-up for charger replacement
7 IPG not Optimizer Smart™ device Wrong-generation Optimizer charger N Re-educate appropriately matched charger use
8 Battery depleted Battery discharged completely or has operation interference Not suggested Pause charging, prompt follow-up

Abbreviations: CCM, cardiac contractility modulation; EMI, electromagnetic interference; IPG, internal pulse generator; N, no; Y, yes.
