Monopolar Instrument Receptacles
You can connect a footswitching or handswitching monopolar instrument to the
monopolar receptacles. Some footswitching instruments may require a single-pin adapter
(E0502 Series or E0017), available from Covidien.
Connect one monopolar instrument to the Monopolar 1/CEM Instrument receptacle:
• A single-pin footswitching instrument or a three-pin handswitching instrument
or
• A four-pin CUSA handpiece with CEM nosecone. (The CEM indicator in the upper
right of the front panel illuminates green.) Refer to Connecting the CUSA Handpiece
with CEM Nosecone on page 5-11.
Connect one monopolar instrument to the Monopolar 2 Instrument receptacle:
• A single-pin footswitching instrument or a three-pin handswitching instrument.
Warning
The instrument receptacles on this generator are designed to accept only one instrument at a
time. Do not attempt to connect more than one instrument at a time into a given receptacle.
Doing so will cause simultaneous activation of the instruments.
