The Generator 300 System supports a series of alarms and error codes to help in the identification and
troubleshooting of component problems. These guides are meant as an adjunct to, but not a substitute for,
clinical judgment and observations.
Audible Indicators and Alarms
Tone Possible Cause and Corrective Action
No tone when system is activated. Confirm foot switch is fully connected (if hand switch is not
being used).
Confirm foot switch is not faulty.
If hand switch is used, confirm it is connected and not faulty.
Confirm hand activation is enabled if hand switching adaptor is
being used.
Activation (brief pulses) System is being activated or is in Test mode. System is operating
properly. MIN and MAX power have unique tones.
Alert (three-tone sequence) Activation is attempted while generator is in Standby mode. Push the
STANDBY button to return the generator to Ready mode.
Two or more foot or hand switches are recognized by the generator as
being activated simultaneously. Reactivate using only one switch.
Constant tone 1) Instrument is in contact with too much tissue. Reduce the amount of
tissue in contact with the instrument. If tone persists, carefully remove
any tissue that has collected in the distal end of the instrument shaft.
2) Hand piece and/or blade fault. Press TEST to identify source of fault.
Prolonged solid tone during Hand piece and/or blade fault. Press TEST to identify source of fault.
activation (exceeds 10 seconds)
Alarm (two-tone sequence) A component or system problem has occurred. Refer to the Error
Codes section in this chapter or the Troubleshooting Guide.
Note: This alarm will activate for three seconds, then will silence itself
for 30 seconds. This cycle will continue until the error is resolved or
the main power switch is turned off.
Error Codes
The generator will recognize specific faults in five areas: generator, hand piece, instrument, foot switch or
hand switch. When a fault is identified, an alarm will sound, the alarm indicator will appear on the generator
control panel, and the source of the problem will appear on the graphic display (the power levels will not be
displayed). See Fig. 4-1 below for an example. Follow the procedures outlined below (or in the
Troubleshooting Guide) to resolve the problem.
