Candela Corporation AlexTriVantage Laser System
On/Off Keylock Switch
The electrical power to the laser system is controlled via a key-operated switch. The laser
system can only be operated using the key provided by Candela Corporation.
The Keylock Switch is spring-loaded. To turn on the system, move the switch to the Start
position and release it. It automatically springs back to the On position.
The Keylock Switch has three positions as shown in Figure 2-4 and described in Table 2-1 :
Table 2-1: Keylock Switch Positions
Keylock Position Description
Off When the Keylock switch is in the Off position, all
circuits are de-energized, except the Keylock
switch circuit itself.
On When the Keylock switch is in the On position, all
circuits are energized. The laser becomes fully
functional when the Keylock switch is turned past
On to the Start position.
Start Start is a spring-loaded keylock position used to
start system operation. The key must be turned
past the On position to the Start position to start
the system. Once the Keylock switch has been
turned to Start, it springs back to the On position.
Turning the Keylock Switch to the Start position
does not start the release of laser energy.
Caution: The key should be removed from the Keylock Switch and stored in a safe
place when the laser is not in use.
