packaging.
Step 2.
Remove the protective cap from the emission port on the back of the laser
system (
Figure 7
).
Step 3.
Remove the protective cap from the end of the optical fiber cable (
Figure 8
).
Step 4.
Insert the end of the fiber into the emission port being careful not to contaminate or damage the tip.
Once seated, thread the metal adapter onto the port by rotating clockwise until tight; do not
overtighten.
Step 5.
Secure the finger switch connector by carefully pushing it into the finger switch port. (

Step 9.
Press “Save >” to confirm the ID and the system will prompt the user that the device will auto shut down and restart.
3. Device Description
The laser system includes a therapeutic laser console and beam delivery system. The beam delivery system consists of a flexible optical fiber
connected to a hand-held applicator, or hand piece, with interchangeable treatment head attachments. A custom software application allows
the user to select from built-in treatment protocols that adjust treatment dosage, including wavelength, based on the patient's characteristics
and condition. The device also provides the ability to set custom treatment parameters including output power, treatment time, and pulse rate.
Once the user has selected the desired treatment parameters, activation of laser emission requires that the operator follow a sequence of
predetermined steps.
3.1. Indications for Use
810 nm and 980 nm wavelengths:
The laser system emits energy in the visible and near-infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue
temperature for a temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm; the temporary increase
in local blood circulation; the temporary relaxation of muscle.
The device is meant for professional use only by licensed practitioners.
Caution:
Federal, national, or local laws may restrict this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed practitioner
licensed by the
applicable authorities to use and/or prescribe use.
3.2. Contraindications
•
Do not apply infrared light to abdominal or lumbosacral points in pregnant females.
•
Do not apply infrared light to the epiphyseal lines in children.
•
Do not apply infrared light to the thoracic region or over the pacemaker itself in patients with pacemakers.
•
Do not apply infrared light over the thyroid gland, ovaries or testicles.
•
Do not apply infrared light to patients who are taking drugs that have heat or light sensitive contraindications, such as but not limited
to certain types of steroids.

Note:
The laser system will be delivered with the optical fiber already connected. If it needs to be replaced, follow Steps 1-5 below to
connect the handpiece to the console. If the handpiece is enabled with Empower IQ, then continue with steps 6-9 to complete the setup.
Note:
If a treatment head is attached to the Empower IQ, it must be removed to reveal the ID. The ID will be 4 alphanumeric
characters. Lower-case or upper-case letters will be accepted. If it is not connecting and unclear whether a character is the letter O
or number 0, always use the number 0. If there are still issues, contact Customer Care for further troubleshooting.
