Basic Modes of Operation
The STA System is equipped with three basic modes of operation. They are:
1. STA mode, which has a single anesthetic injection flow rate. This mode
is activated when the unit is turned on.
2. Normal mode, which has 2 anesthetic injection flow rates.
3. Turbo mode, which has 3 anesthetic injection flow rates.
The user may change between modes during any procedure and the selection is
retained while cartridges are replaced. When the STA System is turned off and
then back on, the default setting is the STA mode.
STA Mode: Provides the user with real-time Dynamic Pressure Sensing (DPS™)
technology while injecting using the ControlFlo™ rate. Aspiration default is set to
“ON” and can be changed by the user.
Normal Mode: In this mode the system has two flow rates, ControlFlo™ and
RapidFlo™. The DPS™ (See section on DPS technology) pressure sensing
technology is not activated. Aspiration is set to “On” and can be changed to “Off”
by the user.
Turbo Mode: The Turbo mode provides the user with an additional speed,
TurboFlo™; all three speeds are controlled by the foot-control pedal. Aspiration
is set to “On” and can be changed to “Off” by the user.
