ABSTRACT:
A tissue stimulating system including an external transmitter for transmitting data to an implanted stimulator including a processor for generating stimulation signals for application to a plurality of tissue stimulating electrodes. The processor selectively monitors the electrodes and/or voltages generated in the stimulator and generates stimulator status indicating signals for transmission to the external transmitter. The external processor receives and processes such status indicating signals.
