Press and release the Remote Power Control Key
to begin calibration. The resistance to be used
for calibration will appear in the Monopolar Coag
Power Digital Display. Connect a resistor of this
value ±1% between the two active connections in
the Two-Pin Dispersive Electrode Receptacle.
Calibrate the particular value connected by press-
ing one of the Bipolar Power Adjustment Keys.
When the value is accepted, a two-tone sequence
will sound and the resistance in the Monopolar
Coag Power Digital Display will quit flashing.
Now scroll to the other of the pair of known
resistances using the Monopolar Coag Power
Adjustment Keys. The resistance to be used for
calibration will appear in the Monopolar Coag
Power Digital Display. Connect a resistor of this
value ±1% between the two active connections in
the Two-Pin Dispersive Electrode Receptacle.
Calibrate the particular value connected by again
pressing one of the Bipolar Power Adjustment
Keys. When the value is accepted, a two-tone
sequence will sound and the resistance in the
Monopolar Coag Power Digital Display will quit
flashing.
Press and release the Remote Power Control Key
to complete A.R.M.™ calibration.
After A.R.M.™ has been calibrated, the major
mode “
PAd
” indicated in the Monopolar Cut
Power Digital Display will quit flashing.
4.7.6 Completing Calibration
Turn power off and set the Calibration system
configuration DIP switch (A4SW2.2) to the OFF
(DOWN) position. See Section 4.9 for system
configuration DIP switch details. The ESU will
be ready for normal operation the next time the
power is turned on.

Last Fault Code Retrieval and
Clear
Up to 20 error codes can be stored in memory
for retrieval. Each error code stored is “date
stamped” where the “time” and “date” the error
occurred is also stored for retrieval. When retriev-
ing the error codes, it is also possible to retrieve
the system settings when the error occurred.
4.8.1 Last Fault Code Retrieval
1) Turn the Main power on. While the unit
is powering up, press the PC key until a
tone occurs. This action will place the sys-
tem in the Last Fault Code Mode (LFC).
Electrosurgical outputs cannot be activated
while the system is in LFC.
2) For 3 seconds: “
LF[
” will be displayed in the
Cut Window, which is for Last Fault Codes.
The Coag window will display “
rX
”, (where X
is a numeric value for the software revision).
3) If any errors are stored in memory, the Cut
Window will next display “
Err
”; the Coag
window will display the error code (a numeric
value); and the Bipolar Window will display
the storage location of that error code.

4) Scroll through the stored error codes using
the Bipolar Power Adjustment Keys. The
error codes are stored Last in, First out. A
“1” in the Bipolar Display shows the last error
that occurred. Press the Bipolar Up key and
a “2” will be displayed if more than one error
occurred.
5) To retrieve the date and time of the error, it
is necessary to have a Handcontrol accessory
connected. Press the Cut activation switch
and the “time” that the error occurred is dis-
played. Press the Coag activation switch and
the “date” that the error occurred is displayed.
Press both Cut and Coag activation switches
and the Display Panel will show the system
settings when the error occurred.
Time Display: Press Handcontrol Cut Switch
Hours can be set for A.M. or P.M. The time is
displayed as Hours - Minutes - Seconds.
