2.1 System Controls
The electronic system controls on the CONMED

use. The membrane control panel contains the
power on/off switch, suction power adjustment,
remote activation indicator, filter reset button, fil-
ter life indicator, and service indicator light. See
Figure 1.
Note: Please be sure to read all instructions
before installing accessories or operating this
equipment. Failure to do so may result in
damage to the unit and/or personal injury.
• POWER ON/OFF & Standby
There are two ON/OFF switches on the CON-
MED 1000SES
TM . The ON/OFF switch that
completely disables the electrical power to the
unit is located on the back of the unit.( See
Figure 2.) The ON/OFF switch on the electronic
membrane control panel is located in the upper
right hand corner of the membrane panel. To
power up the machine, place the power switch on
the rear of the machine in the ON position and
press the ON/OFF switch on the membrane
panel until the lights illuminate. Place the unit in
“standby” by pressing the ON/OFF membrane
switch until the control lights darken. Turn the
unit main power off by placing the power switch
on the back of the unit in the OFF position.
• SUCTION CONTROL (Membrane
Control Panel) See Figure 1.
The amount of suction may be adjusted by
depressing the UP and DOWN Arrow keys.
Depressing the UP arrow button increases suction
and depressing the DOWN arrow button decreas-
es suction. The suction control should be set at
the lowest setting to completely remove the surgi-
cal smoke from the operative site. Each time
either arrow button is depressed, the suction will
increase or decrease by 10%. When two lights are
lit on the flow suction indicator, the actual air
flow is the value between the two illuminated
percentages.
• FOOTSWITCH / REMOTE SWITCH
ACTIVATOR (Membrane Control
Panel) See Figure 1.
A footswitch or a Remote Switch Activator may
be added to the unit by simply plugging a
CONMED activation accessory into the jack on
the back of the unit. When the footswitch is
plugged in, the unit may be turned on or off by
depressing the footswitch pedal once for each
operation. For footswitching operation, the
power switch on the membrane control panel
should be in the ON position. When the
footswitch is plugged in, the light on the mem-
brane control panel entitled REMOTE SWITCH
will light to indicate that the footswitch is active.
For directions on using the Remote Switch
Activator, please see the appropriate section of
this text.
• FILTER LIFE INDICATOR (Membrane
Control Panel) See Figure 1.
The filter life indicator on the membrane control
panel provides a visual indication of the status of
the life of the filter in use. The filter life indicator
for the CONMED 1000SES
TM is set for eight
hours to correspond to the actual filter life of the
CONMED 1000SES
TM filter. After each filter
change, depress the RESET button for five sec-
onds to restart the clock for the next filter.
