When the foot switch is
pressed the system starts
the process of coagulat-

beam. The laser emission
can always be interrupt-
ed by releasing the foot
switch if the patient´s eye
has moved or there is any doubt about the function of the
system. The system terminates the drawing of the pattern
instantly when the foot switch is released.

the system does not continue the coagulation. To produce
a new laser figure, the foot switch must be released and
repressed.
The foot switch is solidly connected to the laser console
box.
