monitor. Selections are made using buttons, menus and control panels, etc., by pointing and clicking
with the mouse.

The AWS Cart is mounted on wheels so that it can be easily positioned for
maximum convenience in the examination room. It should NOT be considered a
“mobile”unit. Take great care if you must move it in the vicinity of any person or
equipment. Do not move it during an examination.
