2.2 Function

This product features a microprocessor-controlled switch between the stance phase and swing
phase and a microprocessor-controlled stance phase.
The microprocessor uses the measurements of an integrated sensor system as a basis to control
a hydraulic unit that influences the damping behaviour of the product.
These sensor data are updated and evaluated 100 times per second. As a result, the behaviour of
the product is adapted to the current motion situation (gait phase) dynamically and in real time.
Thanks to the microprocessor-controlled stance phase, the knee joint can be individually adapted
to your needs.
For this purpose, the product is adjusted by qualified personnel using adjustment software.
Through the adjustment software, it is possible to choose from three activity modes that make the
various functions of the product available. This permits optimum adaptation of the product to the
corresponding mobility grade of the patient. The configured activity mode can only be changed by
qualified personnel.
1. Connection of the knee joint to a trans­
femoral socket or other prosthesis compon­
ent
2. Optional flexion stops
3. Battery and cover caps
4. Hydraulic unit
5. Receiver of the inductive charging unit
