Note: For BIOM 4c only
Also connect the control cable to one of the side couplers of the SDI 4c. Make sure that
the cable does not touch any unsterile parts of the microscope.
Suggestion: If surgery is to be done on the left eye, connect the control cable at the left
hand side of the SDI. Or vice-versa if surgery is being done on the right eye.
For the BIOM 4c only: Installation of the cable duct
The cable duct helps to keep the connecting cable for the drive unit at the BIOM 4c (also
fits BIOM 3c) away from unsterile microscope parts.
The cable duct can be sterilized in a steam autoclave and is conditioned in the same way
as all other BIOM 4 components. Install the sterile cable duct at the plug and cable as
shown in
(fig. 7-7, page 15)
the SDI 4c housing.
and then connect the plug of the BIOM 4c with the socket on
