•
Connect the Handpiece to the Handpiece Cable, pass the other end of the cable from the sterile field and connect it to
Port K on the front of the Console. The Console and Handpiece use the same connector which makes the cable
bidirectional.
•
Connect the Dual Foot Pedal to the Console at Port I. (Note: The Dual Foot Pedal may be elevated off the floor via foot
stool to limit accidental activation/deactivation.)
•
Connect the Field Generator cable to the Console at Port J.
•
Pass the Transducer with Sensor (Model 7700) ultrasound connector from the sterile field and connect to the Console
at Port O. Use the toggle lock at Port N on the Console front panel to lock the Transducer connector in.
•
Pass the Transducer with Sensor (Model 7700) navigation connector from the sterile field, and connect it to the Acessa
ProVu Console’s front panel via Port M.
•
Skin-to-skin contact, such as between the torso and the arms and between the legs of the patient should be avoided
by insulating these contacts with sheets or dry gauze.
•
Any monitoring electrodes should be placed as far as possible from the Handpiece, and should incorporate high-
frequency current limiting devices. Cables connected to the Console should not contact the patient or other electrical
leads.
•
Low power output or failure of the Console to achieve target temperature within approximately 2 minutes may indicate
faulty application or connection of a Pad.
•
The accessories can be connected before or after the system has been powered ON (except TTFG cable and power cord,
which must be connected prior to system power ON).

Energizing The System
•
Place the power switch on the rear panel, Port Q, to the On (I) position. This energizes various internal power supplies
and lights the orange LED on the upper left of the front panel at Port A. The system is now in Standby Mode and
awaiting Power On Self-Test (POST).
•
With the system in Standby mode, depress the “Standby” front panel pushbutton at Port A, and observe that the LED
light up and turns green. The user should also note that the internal fan starts at the same time. The computer boot
sequence progresses through POST and finishes at the Acessa ProVu splash screen.
•
If POST failed, an Error screen will display. Turn the Console off and then turn it on again. If POST fails again, contact
Customer Service at Acessa Health Inc.
