Vectra Genisys® Laser Module
NOMENCLATURE
Feet Indentions
These indentions retain the rubber feet of the unit. This allows the module to align and rest directly underneath the unit.
Ribbon Cable Connection
A ribbon cable connects the unit to the module at this location on the module in order to transfer data from the laser
module to the unit.
Patient Interrupt Switch Connection (Optional Accessory)
As a safety measure and to minimize any apprehension, it is recommended that you always allow the patient to hold the
Patient Interrupt Switch during laser light therapy. When the red button on the end of the switch is pressed, a beeper
sounds and the treatment is paused. Parameters can then be verified and changed (if necessary) and therapy can be
resumed.
Use of the Patient Interrupt Switch should always be explained to the patient before starting treatment. Patients will feel
safer knowing they can stop the treatment if necessary.
The Patient Interrupt Switch is very sensitive. Explain this to the patient when using it in order to prevent unnecessary
interruptions in treatment.
Laser Interlock (Door Interrupt Switch Connection)
This option allows you to set up a switch (similar to the patient interrupt switch) that interrupts treatment when the door of
the treatment room is opened during a therapy session.
Applicator Connection
This port serves as the connection point between the module and the applicator.
Power Cord Routing Area
This hollow area on the back of the module allows you to feed the power cord from the unit through the module and out to
electrical
outlet.
