This dual purpose button displays the current delivery system spotsize, and when
depressed delivers a cryogen PURGE pulse. The purge button is used to remove air
from the handpiece assembly when a new canister or delivery system is installed. The
system will prompt the user when a purge is necessary. This action must be done
with the handpiece removed from the calibration port and pointed in a safe direction.
This button located on the second screen allows the user to select from six aiming
beam intensities. The green aiming beam, which is visible only in the READY state,
serves as a treatment area target as well as an emissions warning device. The aiming
beam cannot be turned OFF.
This button is used to select the repetition rate on the main screen.
This button is used to access available screens. There are two operating screens and
one auxiliary screen(Laser Variable Mode- LVM) See Figures 3.1-3.3 for
descriptions.
Laser emission is generated by depressing the trigger switch, provided the system is
in the READY state & calibrated.
When the trigger switch is pressed, DCD spray (if DCD Pre or Post Spray is on) and
laser pulses are delivered at the distal end of the handpiece.
The fingerswitch or footswitch can be selected with this button. Depress this button
and use the “UP” or “DOWN” arrows to choose the triggerswitch type. For safety
reasons only one type of triggerswitch can be active at one time. For example, if the
footswitch is selected the fingerswitch will be disabled.
