ELECTROSURGICAL UNIT PSD-30
• Panel settings cannot be changed while output is activated.
• The sound volume can be adjusted as described in Section
5.8, “Adjusting the volume”. The sound serves as an
important reminder while output is activated and the sound
should always be audible. The volume of the warning alarm
is not adjusted.
• The maximum output time should be 10 seconds and there
should be an interval of 30 seconds between outputs.
• No power output is possible when the electrosurgical unit is
in the stand-by mode. To operate the electrosurgical unit,
release the stand-by mode as described in Section 5.7,
“Stand-by mode”.
• When using the PSD-30 with the endoscope that is capable
of high frequency cauterization and do not have the S-cord
connector mount, use the non-split type patient plate.
If the split type patient plate is used, the patient/S-cord
warning indicator may light and the alarm may sound
according to the grounding conditions.
5.7
Stand-by mode
If output is not required for a long period while the electrosurgical unit remains
ON, it is recommended that you activate the stand-by mode to prevent
accidental output. In the stand-by mode, output is disabled even if the foot switch
pedals are pressed.
