6.2 Additional Safety Specifications
6.2.1 Coil Temperature Protection
An indication of the coil temperature is given by the Coil Temperature information display on the User
Interface. If the coil surface temperature reaches its set limit, the display information will inform the
user that this condition has occurred. The normal operation of the equipment can then be resumed by
allowing the coil to cool, or alternatively, by replacing the coil with a cool one.
6.2.2 Other Safety Measures
If the instrument has not been triggered for over 10 minutes after the system status window has
displayed READY, the unit will automatically select the default mode and discharge internally The
Magstim Rapid
