Force FX Electrosurgical Generator C Service Manual 4-5
The REM Alarm indicator does not illuminate green when you connect a non-REM
patient return electrode. Instead, the indicator light is extinguished. If the generator
detects a break in continuity between the electrode and the generator, the indicator
illuminates red.
When resistance between the Patient Return Electrode receptacle pins exceeds 20 Ω, the
REM Alarm indicator flashes red, a tone sounds twice, and RF output is disabled. The
indicator remains illuminated red until you correct the condition causing the alarm. Then,
the red indicator light is extinguished and RF output is enabled.
For additional information, refer to REM Circuit on page 4-26.
