5.3. ASD – ACKERMANN SMART DETECTION
The sockets 16-2000-120 are equipped with an instrument detection system
– ASD
. It detects and identifies
the connected instrument.
Both sockets (OUT1 and OUT2) support monopolar and bipolar modes.
The mode settings are general for the unit rather than for instruments, as after two monopolar instruments are
connected to both ASD sockets they use the same settings fixed on the CUT and COAG panel. After two
bipolar instruments are connected the settings on the BICOAG panel apply to both of them.
After the supported ASD instrument is connected the units emits an acoustic signal (a rising tone). After the
ASD instrument is disconnected the unit emits an acoustic signal (a falling tone).
In the absence of an instrument or if an unsupported instrument is connected, the functions of the unit cannot
be activated.
A list of supported ASD instruments (catalogue 16-2):
Monopolar:
16-2003-100, 16-2003-160, 16-2000-110, 16-2003-121, 16-2003-122
Bipolar:
16-2003-138, 162000-1310ASD
(The list of supported instruments can change as the unit software is modified.)
During activation, the diodes over the active footswitch socket selection button change their function and
signal the mode (cutting and coagulation) and the socket (OUT1 or OUT2) in which the unit has been
activated (e.g. for cutting at socket 1 a yellow diode flashes over OUT1, etc.). This shows which instrument is
active in the case where two monopolar instruments or two bipolar instruments are connected to both sockets
(the CUT diode alone signals that monopolar cutting has been activated, but does not indicate in which
socket).
5.4. FOOTSWITCH
16-2000-120 can be used with a wired
footswitch.
The footswitch is connected to the socket situated on the back of the unit (Fig. 5, item 8).
