Abstract
A medical device programmer automatically adjusts parameters to be programmed to a medical device in response to a user modifying related parameters. Slide controllers on the programmer display screen can adjust parameters. In response to slide controller movement, the programmer automatically adjusts related parameters by moving their slide controllers. This graphically illustrates to the user the automatic adjustments being made to the related parameters. and the relationship between parameters being adjusted by the user and automatically. In response to on screen parameter changes, the system graphically illustrates the parameter values that are changed and those that are programmed to the medical device and those that would cause unsafe condition in the medical device if programmed. The method also prevents the programming to the medical device the parameters that would cause an unsafe condition.
