This red knob is designed for emergency shut-down of laser energy
emission. When pressed it immediately disables the laser.
To disengage the emergency shut-off button, press it again.
The system's computer continually monitors internal system status. The
following are among the items monitored:
If a fault is detected an appropriate error message is displayed on the LCD
monitor. If the error is non-recoverable lasing is disabled until the fault is
corrected. If the error is recoverable, follow instructions on the screen.
A complete discussion of system faults may be found in the Trouble-
shooting chapter of this manual.
To prevent accidental delivery of excessive energy to tissue, laser energy
is monitored continuously. An appropriate error message is displayed on
the LCD monitor if a ±20% deviation in the laser output is detected, the
system returns to Standby mode and issues an error message.
If the system begins to overheat, an appropriate error message will be
displayed on the LCD monitor (refer to the Troubleshooting chapter of
this manual).
The system features two laser emission indicators: a blue LED-illuminated
line located between the system display and buttons and a built-in speaker.
The blue LED has three modes of operation
●
Low level continuous - When the system is turned on, and in
Standby mode.
●
Medium level blinking - When the system is in
Ready mode.
●
High level continuous - During laser emission (footswitch
pressed).
●
The speaker emits an audible indicator during laser emission.
