MCO25plus Operating Instructions
To ensure that the irradiation parameters selected cannot be accidentally changed during the
laser treatment, all control-panel buttons are blocked (inoperable) as long as the footswitch is
held down.
A microprocessor helps to keep the laser output power at a constant level (in accordance with
the value selected, and within system-specific tolerance limits). In case the system is unable to
maintain the selected power level any longer, an appropriate message is displayed on the LCD
and a substitute value offered to the user.
In "laser ready" mode, Class IV infrared laser radiation is emitted upon operating the
footswitch. Therefore, all persons present in the laser area (i.e. the closed room or screened-
off part of a room where the application of dangerous radiation is permitted) are required to
wear protective goggles when the laser warning lamps come on (for details, see section 2.2).
The option of using an external door contact as part of the safety system is described in
section 4.4.5.
With the emergency stop device, the system can be immediately shut down in a case of
emergency.
