1.
Checking the footswitch
Confirm that the footswitch cable and footswitch plug is free of scratches
and cracks and that the footswitch pedals
are not damaged.
2.
Checking the footswitch pedal function
Press each pedal and confirm that it functions smoothly without being
caught by anything.
3.
Connecting the footswitch

3.7 Connection of neutral electrode (for monopolar
treatment only)
Split type neutral electrode
When a split type neutral electrode (patient grounding pad) is connected to the
electrosurgical generator, it is possible to detect unintended detachment of the
neutral electrode from the patient. Refer to “Specifications” in the Appendix for a
list of compatible neutral electrodes.
If the contact between the neutral electrode and the patient’s skin is insufficient,
the contact quality monitor indicator for split neutral electrodes illuminates red.
Reattach the neutral electrode or use a new plate. The contact quality monitor
indicator for split neutral electrode will only light green while the contact
between the neutral electrode and the skin of the patient is within an acceptable
resistance range (see “Specifications” in the Appendix).
