Chapter 6 Operation
a. INTRODUCTION
This chapter contains information that identies the modes, functions, parameter settings, and
commands necessary to operate the TX Console. The following information should be read and
thoroughly understood in detail before operating the system.
b. MAIN MODE
The Main Mode displays three (3) panels, which provide access to the parameter settings for
the available system functions. Each function is activated by simply pressing a soft key in the
panel labeled with the name of that function. This will be indicated by the function being
highlighted. When the TX Console is rst powered ON, the initialization screen will momentarily
display the Tenex Health logo, followed by the Main Mode screen.
The three (3) user functions are Irrigation, Aspiration, and Cutting Power. The parameter
settings for each function are only available sequentially from left to right at power up. The
system is not ready for use until parameter settings are made for all three (3) functions.
The Main Mode also contains the Prime, Cutting Time, and Options commands. The PRIME
command soft key will initiate the priming cycle when pressed, which lls the tube set with liquid,
tests the valves, and tests the peristaltic pump. The CUTTING TIME command soft key resets
the cutting timer when pressed. The OPTIONS command soft key will access the Options Mode
when pressed, providing access to the Sound, Brightness, and Software Upgrade functions.
Note that the software upgrade function is for factory use only.
