What is the purpose of the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator?
The BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator is designed to collect information from your implanted device. The Communicator then sends this data to the Clinician Website for access by your health care team to assist them in managing your ongoing care.
Please note that this is not an emergency medical system.
How does the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator work?
Once the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator is set up, it will periodically check your device on a schedule set by your clinic. Sometimes this will happen automatically, and other times the Communicator may need your assistance. Simply press the flashing Heart button when it blinks to help complete the device check.
Where should I place the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator?
When choosing a location for your BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator, follow these guidelines:
Place it within 3 meters (10 feet) from your bedside or where you sleep. If this is not possible, place your Communicator where you spend a considerable amount of time each day.
Keep it at least 30 cm (12 in.) away from televisions, digital video disc (DVD) players, personal computers, modems, routers, microwaves, and other electronic equipment.
Ensure it is in a location where you can sit comfortably and see the front of the Communicator.
For Cellular connections: Place it in a location where you get a good cellular signal.
For Internet connections: Place it near, but no closer than 1 meter (3 feet), to your internet modem or router.

What are the step-by-step setup instructions for the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator?
Follow these steps to set up your BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator for Cellular or Internet connections:
Step 1. Confirm switch settings: Check the white switches numbered 1-8 on the bottom of your Communicator. Ensure they match the settings required (Switches 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8 down; Switch 4 up). If they do not match, slide them up or down to set them correctly.
Step 2. Connect the power supply: Plug the power cord into the back of the Communicator and the other end into a wall outlet.
Step 3. Identify connection method: Determine if you will use a Cellular connection or an Internet connection.
Step 4. Connect cables: For a Cellular Connection (Method A), use a USB Cellular Adapter. For an Internet Connection (Method B), use a USB Ethernet Adapter to connect to your internet router or modem. Keep your connection method plugged into your Communicator at all times.
Step 5. Start setup: Press the flashing Heart button on the Communicator to start the setup process.
Step 6. Wait while data sends: The Communicator will collect data from your implanted device and then send the data. This could take several minutes. If the Heart button flashes again, press it again.
Step 7. Wait for software update: A software update may occur. Wait several minutes for the Heart button to flash, then press it again. This may happen multiple times. Press the Heart button each time it flashes.
Step 8. Success: If the indicators are lit (the person icon, heart icon, and signal waves), setup is complete. The lights will turn off automatically after 2 minutes.
Step 9. Maintain power: Keep your Communicator plugged in at all times to allow it to check your implanted device as scheduled.
Why must the BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator remain plugged in?
Keeping your BOSTON SCIENTIFIC LATITUDE Communicator plugged in at all times allows the device to check your implanted device when scheduled by your health care provider and ensures data can be sent to the Clinician Website.
