If LOCK AVAILABLE VALUES is set to NO, and the user selects SAVE SETTINGS from either the Voltage or
Current Stimulation Mode, STIM RATE 1 and PULSE DUR 1 will be overwritten with the saved values.
•
Since the VOLTAGE STIMULATION and CURRENT STIMULATION modes are available from the COOLED RF
AUTO TEMP READY and TRANSDISCAL TREATMENT READY modes, any changes made to the VOLTAGE
STIMULATION and CURRENT STIMULATION modes through ADVANCED SETTINGS also affects the
VOLTAGE STIMULATION and CURRENT STIMULATION modes when accessed through COOLED RF and
TRANSDISCAL modes.

ADVANCED SETTINGS Mode– LESION SETTINGS State
The following screen appears when LESION SETTINGS is selected from the ADVANCED SETTINGS Mode.
•
This screen allows adjustment of the initial RAMP TIME taken by the AUTO TEMP LESION and AUTO PULSED
LESION modes to attain the SET TEMPERATURE
•
This screen allows adjustment of POWER LIMIT in AUTO TEMP LESION and AUTO PULSED LESION modes
•
Changing RAMP TIME affects the portion of the total TIME spent at the SET TEMPERATURE
•
Lowering the RAMP TIME causes the Generator to attempt to reach the SET TEMPERATURE faster
•
MAX RAMP TIME EXTENSION is the maximum allowable duration for extension of the ramp time in Multi-RF
Auto Temp Lesion mode, to maintain a consistent Lesion Time. If all probes have not reached Set Temperature within
the sum of this time and the specified Ramp Time, an error notification will be generated. This feature can be turned
off by changing the setting to DISABLE.
