5.3.7. Pulse Counter
5.3.8. Standby/Ready
Mode Selection
The pulse counter displays the total number of treatment pulses delivered
since the reset button was last pressed. The range on the Smart532 laser
system display is 0-10,000 pulses. It can be reset to zero by pressing the
Reset button. The pulse count will reset to 0 (zero) when the laser
system is powered down.
The count display will incrementally show the number of pulses delivered.
● Except during actual treatment, the system must always be in
Standby mode. Maintaining the system in Standby mode
prevents accidental laser exposure if the footswitch is
inadvertently pressed.
● Verify that all persons in the treatment room are wearing the
appropriate laser safety eyewear before setting the laser to
Ready mode.
When the Smart532 laser system is turned on and has finished warming
up, it defaults to Standby mode. The aiming beam is present but the
footswitch is disabled and the treatment laser cannot be activated.
Press the Ready button to transition the system from Standby to Ready
mode; the Ready icon turns green. The system beeps to indicate the start
of a two-second delay, after which the treatment beam can be activated by
pressing the footswitch.
When the footswitch is pressed the eye safety filter will engage (if using
an automatic eye safety filter) and the treatment beam will be activated.
While the treatment beam is being delivered, an audible tone is emitted.
Note
● If the laser is not used for five minutes, the system
automatically defaults to Standby mode.
● If the laser cannot be set to Ready mode, an error message
displays on the control panel.
5.3.9. Preset Name
This area of the screen displays the name of the currently-selected preset.
Press the ▼ button to open a drop-down menu of the last four presets that
were used during a treatment.
