1. An implantable medical device operable in a disruptive energy field comprising:
- memory containing a first set of parameters and a second set of parameters; and
a control processor operable to access from the memory the first set of parameters corresponding to a first operating mode and a second set of parameters corresponding to a second operating mode, wherein the control processor operates in the first operating mode when the implantable medical device is outside the disruptive energy field and operates in the second operating mode when the implantable medical device is in the disruptive energy field.
