6 Connection of footswitch (optional)
There are two kinds of footswitches, the THUNDERBEAT and SONICBEAT footswitches. This section
describes how to connect these footswitches.
WARNING
Do not connect any equipment other than the optional
footswitch to the footswitch socket. Otherwise, the system
cannot perform appropriately and injury and/or equipment
damage may also result.
CAUTION
Do not place a heavy object, such as a trolley (cart), on the
footswitch cable. Otherwise, cable disconnection may result.
Do not drop to the footswitch.
Always hold the footswitch plug section when connecting or
disconnecting it. Otherwise, the cable may separate from the
footswitch plug.
Avoid applying excessive force to the cable and the end of
the footswitch plug when connecting the footswitch plug.
Otherwise, the cable may separate from the plug or other
failure may result. If it is expected that the cable may be
subject to excessive force, move the ultrasonic generator
and footswitch to appropriate positions.
