Operation
5.15 Functional checks
Perform the following functional checks after the system has been installed:
• Check the control unit and handpieces for damage.
• Start the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW (see chapter 5.14 start-up).
• Set the energy level in F-SW mode to 0.2 mJ/mm
2
.
• Optional: Set the energy level in C-ACTOR mode to 0.69 mJ/mm
2
.
• Reset the actual number of shocks on the parameter display of the control panel
(see chapter 5.12 resetting the treatMent shOck cOunter).
• Release shocks with a shock frequency of 4 Hz.
• Release shocks by means of the foot switch, if used.
• Check that the triggered shocks are correctly counted on the treatment shock
counter.
NOTE
If necessary, the functional capability of the F-SW handpiece can be checked with
the aid of special Colour sensitive pressure sensors sensors.
5.16 Standard settings
• Before each treatment, make sure that the number of shocks and the actual en-
ergy value are set to zero (see chapter 5.12 resetting the treatMent shOck cOunter).
NOTE
Set the nominal value counter to the required value. The "-" symbol appears if
zero is selected. The instrument then operates without a nominal value specica-
tion.
• Start the F-SW treatment at an energy level of 0.1 mJ/mm
2
and a frequency of 6
Hz.
• Start the C-ACTOR treatment at an energy level of 0.03 mJ/mm
2
and a frequency
of 6 Hz.
