WIRELESS FOOTSWITCH
The Epic X will not emit laser energy until the user presses
down on the Footswitch while the laser is in Ready mode.
The Footswitch is designed to work using wireless
technology and is paired to the laser console at the factory.
REMOTE INTERLOCK
This feature allows the laser to be connected to a remote
sensor which prevents it from firing when the sensor is
triggered. To install the remote interlock, insert the plug (a)
at the end of the connector (Figure 6.4) into the rear of the
laser console and attach the two wires (b) at the other end
to a door switch; the laser will stop immediately when the
connection to the door switch is deactivated, i.e., when the
door is opened.
EMERGENCY STOP
Press the red emergency laser stop button (Figure 6.5) to
instantly turn off the laser console. The message
“Emergency Switch Error” will appear on the console
display and the amber LED will begin flashing. To clear the
error, press the emergency laser stop button again; in 2 to
5 seconds the amber LED will stop flashing and the system
will automatically go into Standby mode.
FUNCTIONAL DISPLAY
The system color display with touch screen and LED
indicators on the control panel shows the functional
conditions of the system.
CAUTION: Use only the DC Power Supply
Module supplied with the Epic X laser
system. (BIOLASE P/N 2400075)
