AtriCure Switch Matrix ASB3
Instructions for Use
The AtriCure ASB3 Switch Matrix is a reusable accessory interface module that allows
simultaneous connection of AtriCure® Isolator™ Transpolar™ ablative handpiece and
pen devices to the ASU RF generator. Devices will be operational only when the ASB3
selector switch is set to the device specific position. Please refer to the applicable
handpiece and pen device Instructions For Use. Please refer to the ASU User's Manual
for descriptions of RF energy delivery, modes of operation, output power, operating
frequency, and approved temporary cardiac pacing and stimulating accessories.
The ASB3 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical devices in
IEC 60601-1-2:2015. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a typical medical installation. The ASB3 generates and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the
ASB3 does cause harmful interference to other devices, which can be determined by
turning the ASB3 off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures; (1) reorient or relocate the receiving device, (2)
increase the separation between the ASB3 and the other devices, (3) connect the ASB3
into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the other device(s) are connected,
and (4) contact the AtriCure service representative for assistance.
Inspect the following interface cables for any signs of physical damage to the cable and
connectors. If physical damage is found or the interface cables do not perform within
specification, notify AtriCure. All returns must have approval from AtriCure. The cables
include: (1) A000442-ASB/ASU RF Interface Cable, (2) A000473-ASB/ASU Footswitch
Interface Cable.
