6.3.4. Program 3 "Resection"
 Both cutting and coagulation are possible with bipolar
operation.
 Use the socket connector for monopolar instruments 29/30
for monopolar Resection/TUR.
 Only the Standard coagulation current is available at the
"Bipolar Output" 31.
This program is used for underwater cutting during transurethral and
transvaginal resection and vaporisation on prostata, bladder, and
uterus.
In this program, the resection snare is used for cutting and coagulation.
Arc control technology generates the cutting effect with simultaneously
minimized output power.
ARC control facilitates immediate cutting and prevents adhesion of the
electrodes.

The key/display for "Monopolar Output" 29/30 and "Bipolar
Output" 31 are preconfigured.
 Connect the monopolar resectoscope to the "Monopolar
Output" 29/30.
