Laser aperture
The laser aperture is located at the head of the Laser Probe. The laser aperture symbol engraved on
the Laser Probe indicates the direction of the laser beam.
Target Light
All Laser Probes have a target light. When treating a patient without probe-skin contact, the red
target light helps the therapist to focus on the area to treat. The target light contributes to a safe
treatment by indicating the irradiation area of the laser beam.
As the target light passes down the same delivery system as the working beam, it provides a good
means of checking the integrity of the delivery system. If the target light is not present at the distal
end of the delivery system, its intensity is reduced or it looks diffused, this is a possible indication of
a damaged or malfunctioning delivery system.
Safety Features
The laser radiation coming out of the device is dangerous: always use the appropriate
protective goggles. Always avoid eye exposure to direct or diffuse laser radiation.
Key Control
The device is protected with a key control. The key code allows access to the graphical user
interface. Without this key code the device will not operate.
When the device has been inactive for a longer period of time, the key control screen will reappear.
Unlock the device with the key code to continue.
Remote Interlock
The Remote Interlock is located on the Laser Probe Holder. It contains a DC jack that can be
connected with an external Remote Interlock system. It has a latching switch, so that the power will
need to be manually reset.
Emergency Stop
The Emergency Stop button is located on the Laser Probe Holder. It can be identified by the red
button and red emergency stop symbol:
Activating the Emergency Stop will interrupt the power to the Laser Probe and stop the emission of
laser output to prevent a situation where there is an unacceptable risk to any person. The button is
a latching switch, so that the power will need to be manually reset.
Laser Protection Goggles
The laser radiation emitted by the device is intrinsically dangerous. The supplied laser protective
goggles provide protection against the laser light wavelength outputs 808 nm and 905 nm by the
device. Use the protective goggles on therapist, patient and any other person in the room at all
times during treatment.
Do not look at the beam either with naked, unprotected eyes or with optical instruments. Avoid
unprotected exposure to the beam. Avoid exposure of the eyes to direct or diffused radiation.
