Operation
On the stand-alone version
• Set the treatment parameters using the plus and minus buttons on the handpiece.
– Each selected nominal value is shown on the display.
4.7.2 Start-up
• Set the energy of the shocks to an initial value of 2 bar
eff
.
The maximum pressure is limited to 5.0 bar
eff
. The minimum pressure that can be set is
0.3 bar
eff
.
• Activate the trigger button.
The R-SW handpiece can be operated in single shock mode and in continuous shock
mode.
• To work in R-SW single shock mode, select the ‘-’ symbol (dash) in the ‘Frequency’
selection box and activate the trigger button.
• To work in R-SW continuous shock mode, select a continuous shock frequency in
the range from 1 to 21 Hz in the ‘Frequency’ selection box.
• Activate the trigger button.
NOTE
If the nominal shock value is 0 (displayed as ' - '), the stop only occurs at
19,999 shock waves.
4.7.3 Functional checks
Perform the following functional checks after the system has been installed:
• Check the R-SW module and the handpieces for any signs of damage.
• Put the module into operation.
• Set the energy level to 2 bar
eff
.
• Reset the treatment shock counter.
• If you are working with CONTROL, reset the counter on the parameter display of the
control panel.
• If you are working with the standalone version, reset the counter on the handpiece dis-
play.
• Release individual shocks in single shock mode.
• Release shocks in continuous shock mode (shock frequency 5 Hz/15 Hz).
• Release shocks by means of the foot switch, if used.
• Check that the triggered shocks are correctly counted on the treatment shock counter.
