Hardware Questions
Why can’t I remove the wire/tool from the simulator?
The carriage capture mechanism
has malfunctioned.
Make sure that the tool has been “de-selected” by going
to the appropriate tool menu and selecting “NoTool”.
Remember that if several “No Tool” choices are available,
the “No Tool” beneath the dialog box where the tool was
chosen must be selected to release the tool.
If the tool was “de-selected”, as above, and still does not
release, end and quit the case by selecting “Exit”, (lower
right corner of right simulation screen). This will return
the software to the CAE ‘desktop’. Carriages should
automatically release all tools and return to ‘home’
position.
If this fails to release the tool, turn off the power to the
CathLabVR™ device. Turn the power back on while
applying GENTLE traction to the wire/tool.
If this still fails to release the tool, open the lid of the
CathLabVR™ device. Identify the carriage that is ‘holding’
the tool. Make sure that the ‘release lever’ is in the up,
(no tool captured), position.
If the lever is not up, carefully raise the lever, using your
fingers. This should release the tool. It is possible that
another, more proximal carriage has accidentally
captured the tool. Inspect and make sure all of the
carriages have the release lever in the up position.
If none of the maneuvers described above allow the
stuck tool to be removed, please contact CAE Customer
Service.
Why doesn’t the Fluoro or Cine features work when I step on the foot pedals?
The foot pedal cable may be
plugged into incorrect connector
port.
Verify that foot pedal cable is inserted into Foot Pedal
port “A”.
