Generator Switch On/Off
The mains power On/Off rocker switch is located on the top left of the rear panel (viewed
from front). The Generator is switched on by pressing the side marked l. The generator will
display the Serial number of the generator, then the internal tests are performed then the
green LED below the Mode / Menu button will come on continuously, then flash after a short
time. The generator is then Ready state dependent on whether an instrument has been
fitted.
The generator display will dim after a period of 30 minutes of not being used and will
automatically enter Standby state if it is not used for a period of four hours.
It is advisable to switch off the Generator whenever it is not in use for any extended period,
by using the rear panel switch. The side marked “0” should be pressed to do this.
To enable use of the generator the Standby / On button must be pressed and the generator
will then enter the Idle state if no instrument is fitted, or the Ready state if an instrument is
fitted.
If an instrument is present at switch on then the user has to accept the default powers, by
pressing the Mode / Menu
button when prompted.
4C. SuperPulse Generator Indicators, Set-up and Malfunction Displays
Impedance Indicator
Impedance is measured by the generator to provide assistance in determining the tissue
effect endpoint, in addition to the visual and tactile feedback available to the user. The
impedance of the tissue rises during the desiccation/coagulation process. Indication of this
is provided via audible and visual signals to be used as a guide to determining when
treatment is complete.
The impedance indication is available as a bargraph with audible indication, or the
indications can be removed if desired.
The impedance display is in the form of a bar graph.
For the bargraph display thirteen diamonds are displayed initially with the number reducing
as the impedance rises.
The audible tone that accompanies the visual display starts at a high pitch and falls as the
impedance increases.
