When the main paddle is depressed beyond detent #1, pump is activated, causing
aspiration and irrigation to occur simultaneously. Further depression of the paddle
will increase aspiration level linearly, if linear control mode is selected on the
console.
When the main paddle is rotated to the surgeon's right the vitreous cutter (or
phaco handpiece) is activated. If linear mode is selected, further right rotation will
increase the cutting rate (or phaco tip stroke).
When the main paddle is rotated to the surgeon's left, the system swaps between
Memory 1, 2 and 3 in U/S mode, Memory 1 and 2 in DIATHERMY, I/A and VIT mode.
If the main paddle depressed at the heel (bottom) side, an immediate REFLUX
through the aspiration line of the connected handpiece occurs. REFLUX is a back
flow caused by the REFLUX valve opening allowing fresh BSS solution in the
aspiration line. A sound of low pitch (800 Hz) is heard.
Whenever the main paddle is depressed beyond detent #2 DIATHERMY, if selected,
it is activated. If linear control mode is on, a further pressure on the paddle will
increase emission power level.
"CONTINUOUS IRRIGATION" switch reverses the state of the IRRIGATION valve which
if close opens, if open closes.
The Operating mode change switch allows user to move from U/S to I/A mode and
vice versa or to switch from Vitrectomy to Diathermy mode and vice versa.
Audible and visual feedback is provided as indication of selected modes, and
associated alarm conditions.
NOTE:
The Vacuum level is automatically reduced to zero whenever the footswitch is released.
