Socket Selection
The generator permits two instruments to be fitted simultaneously, via the two 5-way
connectors.
Only one socket can deliver RF at any one time. When the generator is switched on from
the standby state, it initially operates an automatic socket selection mechanism, and assists
primary connection by activating whichever socket first has an instrument attached. The
instrument connected to the active socket is indicated on the display. Thereafter socket
selection can only be altered manually, by pressing the black mode footswitch, ensuring
that the surgeon always has control over which instrument is activated.
