12.4.5.4. Adjustment of gas flow (Service functions 3,7,8,9,10)
With this service function the gas flow for different types of handpieces and probes is
adjusted. For this purpose the service function corresponding to the handpiece or probe
has to be selected and the gas flows (Sub-functions 1 to 5) have to be checked or
adjusted according to the table below. It has to be considered that the handpieces deliver
power. A patient electrode must be connected.
The following table shows gas flows, handpiece types and service functions.

For these measurements a gas flow meter, calibrated for argon gas, and with a
measuring range from 0.2 to 10 l/min has to be used, which is connected to the
handpiece by means of a soft hose.
