connect to the Home Monitoring system through an active telephone<br />
link<br />
• The CardioMessenger cannot establish a connection to the<br />
implanted device<br />
• The telephone <strong>and</strong>/or Internet connection do not operate properly<br />
• The Home Monitoring Service Center is <strong>of</strong>f-line (upgrades are<br />
typically completed in less than 24 hours)<br />

<strong>of</strong> physical or mental challenges, another adult who can follow the<br />
instructions will be necessary for proper transmission.<br />

phones are restricted or prohibited (i.e., commercial aircraft).
