Channel Messages
A channel message is specific to a particular channel and indicates a task needs to be
completed for the Control Unit to provide ultrasound therapy to that channel. The
message may also ask the operator to confirm a particular action that was initiated by
the operator. It does not indicate that an error or failure has occurred. The channel that
does not have a channel message will not be interrupted or affected by the message.
Messages occur when a cable needs to be connected, when ultrasound therapy needs
to be started or when a confirmation is needed. Channel messages can occur for both
channels at the same time. When a channel message occurs, read the message and
follow the instructions for troubleshooting steps to take.
See Figure 47 and Figure 48 below for examples of a channel message:
