TELEMETRY DURING SAFETY MODE OPERATION
First Claim
1. An implantable device comprising:
- a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external device;
a logic circuit communicatively coupled to the communication circuit; and
a processor, communicatively coupled to the logic circuit and the communication circuit, wherein the processor is configured to communicate information with the external device, via the communication circuit and the logic circuit, using a set of communication messages, andwherein, while in a device safety mode, the processor is held in an inactive state and the logic circuit is configured to communicate with the external device using a subset of the set of communication messages.
