• Activation tones sound to verify that the speaker is working properly.
7. If the self-test is successful, a tone sounds. Verify the following:
• Indicators above the default mode buttons (Standard bipolar, Pure cut, and
Fulgurate coag) illuminate green.
• Each display shows a power setting of one watt.
• The REM Alarm indicator illuminates red.
If the self-test is not successful, an alarm tone sounds. A number may momentarily
appear in the Cut display and, in most cases, the generator is disabled. Note the
number and refer to Responding to System Alarms on page 6-11.
Important
If the coag mode has been optionally changed to default to Desiccate or Spray, that
corresponding indicator illuminates after the self-test is performed successfully.
