Generator Service Manual
7 Testing Summary
The PMG is capable of a variety of self-tests which ensure patient safety and verify proper
operation and set-up of equipment. When the main power of the PMG is turned on, the system
undergoes Power-On-Self-Tests (POST). In addition, during operation of the System, many
Continuous Tests are performed. When manufacturing of the Generator is completed, each unit
undergoes a series of Final Device Tests.
7.1 Finished Device Testing
Every Generator undergoes a Final Test before its release. The list includes:
› Fuse and line voltage settings
› Power On Self-Test sequence
› BIOS programming
› Return connector continuity
› Serial communications and software version check
› Default settings (Advanced Settings)
› Default values
› Probe/cable detection
› Front panel controls and display
› Output on/off switch
› Footswitch function
› Volume adjust setting
› Fan function
› Electrical safety tests
› Burn-in Test
› Stimulation output function
› Stimulation over-current and open-circuit detection
› Monopolar RF output and measurement
› Multi-RF output and measurement
› RF over-current shutdown
› Low and high impedance detection
› Output waveform check
› Measurement noise immunity and broken sensor detection– thermistor and thermocouple
› Temperature measurement accuracy – thermistor and thermocouple
