IMPEDANCE DISPLAY

The IMPEDANCE Display is shown in Figure 5-1K. The IMPEDANCE Display
is a four-digit, green LED numeric display. The impedance measurement range is
100-6000 ohms. The displayed value will fluctuate during impedance
measurement since it is a measure of catheter-to-tissue contact. During the
READY mode, the IMPEDANCE Display remains blank since impedance is only
measured during the ON mode while RF output is active. When RF power is
discontinued (DONE mode) the last measured value of the impedance will remain
on the display for five seconds while the generator completes the DONE mode
and transitions to the READY mode. Once in the READY mode, the Impedance
Display becomes blank.
Note: If the impedance exceeds 6000 ohms, the Generator will automatically cease the
delivery of RF power and the IMPEDANCE Display will show a flashing "E002" error
message to alert the user to the high impedance value. This error message will also be
seen if the user attempts to deliver RF power to the Catheter when there is an electrical
open circuit. The open circuit may be caused by various influences, such as a Catheter
that was not connected to the BMC Connector Cable. If the impedance drops below 100
ohms, the Generator will automatically cease the delivery of RF power and the display
will show a flashing "E001" error message to alert the user to the low impedance value.

illuminated during the READY mode. When the generator is in the READY
mode, the timer and power levels can be set.

MEASURED INDICATOR

The MEASURED Indicator is shown in Figure 5-1N. It is a green LED that is
illuminated when the Generator is in the ON mode. The Measured Indicator
switches off after the Generator transitions from the DONE mode to the READY
mode, but stays lit during the DONE mode.
It is a yellow LED that is
