Connection to External Systems
The VLFT10GEN can be connected to an external system. For example, connections can
be made to enable smoke evacuation or EKG blanking during monopolar activation, or
provide argon-enhanced coagulation. There are two external system receptacles on the
back of the VLFT10GEN that can signal RF activation–one that is associated with the
Monopolar 1 receptacle (labeled Monopolar 1) and one with the Monopolar 2 receptacle
(labeled Monopolar 2). Refer to the external system user’s guide for detailed instructions
regarding how to connect it to the generator.
