automatically enters Standby if the laser is idle for more than 2
minutes while in the Ready state.

When Ready, the laser is armed and ready for use. Laser energy
will not be emitted until you press the Footswitch while the system
is in the Ready state.

the Delivery System Cable are also illuminated when the system
status is Ready.

laser is pulsing.
This symbol appears when you press the Footswitch to begin laser
