Remote Interlock
An
external
interlock
circuit
is
located
on
the
back
panel.
The
circuit
can
be
used
to
disable
the
console
if
the
treatment
room
door
is
opened
during
treatment.
For
locations
that
do
not
require
an
external
interlock,
an
interlock
jumper
is
provided.
Key Switch
The
SL/SLx
operates
only
when
the
proper
key
is
in
place.
The
key
cannot
be
removed
while
the
key
switch
is
turned
to
the
On
position.
Laser Emission Indicator
When
the
footswitch
is
depressed,
an
audible
tone
indicates
that
the
console
is
delivering
laser
energy.
The
audible
indicator
volume
may
be
adjusted
but
not
turned
off.
Time Delay When Activating Laser
The
console
delivers
laser
energy
only
when
Treat
is
selected
and
the
footswitch
is
depressed.
When
the
status
of
the
console
is
changed
from
Standby
to
Treat,
the
footswitch
is
disabled
for
3
seconds
to
help
prevent
unintentional
delivery
of
energy.
Beam Attenuator
The
SL/SLx
includes
an
electronic
attenuator
that
prevents
the
treatment
beam
from
exiting
the
console
until
all
requirements
for
emission
are
met
and
the
footswitch
is
depressed.
Viewing Optics
Operating
microscopes
used
with
the
SL/SLx
must
be
equipped
with
a
fixed
safety
filter
assembly,
which
is
installed
in
the
viewing
path
of
the
microscope.
When
properly
installed,
the
IRIS
Medical
eye
safety
filters
will
protect
anyone
viewing
through
the
microscope
from
laser
radiation
in
excess
of
CDRH
Class
I
levels.
The
IRIS
Medical
Laser
Indirect
Ophthalmoscope
(LIO)
and
Slit
Lamp
Adapters
(SLA)
include
a
fixed
filter,
which
ensures
any
laser
radiation
returned
to
the
physician’s
eyes
during
clinical
use
is
below
the
Class
I
limit.
