User's Manual Part 1

8065751131 1.11
NOTE: The accessory equipment connected to or used with this equipment must
be certifi ed according to the respective IEC standard; e.g., IEC 950 for
data processing equipment (data processing equipment must not be
used during patient treatment) and IEC 601-1 for medical equipment.
Additionally, all confi gurations shall comply with the system standard
IEC 601-1-1. Anyone connecting additional equipment or otherwise
causing a different system confi guration than provided by Alcon, is
responsible for continued compliance to the requirements of the System
Standard IEC 601-1-1. If in doubt, consult the Technical Services
department of your local Alcon representative.
It is recommended not to use a power strip to plug in accessory
equipment. Each accessory should be plugged into a wall unit.
General Safety Precautions (Refer to IEC 825-1 or ANSI Z136.1)
• A laser safety officer should be appointed to supervise the installation and use of
the system.
• Install an indicator light outside the laser room warning of instrument operation.
• Position the instrument so that the laser beam is never directed toward a door,
window or reflective surface.
• Use non-reflective matte finish wall paint.
• Avoid covering laser room floor and walls with carpet or any other dust
generating material. This will minimize the possibility of excess grime and dust
on the instrument optics, and interference with equipment cooling.
• The instrument requires a minimum of 0.5 meter of open space on all sides for
proper cooling ventilation. Therefore, the system should be set flat, resting on the
legs provided on the bottom of the console.
• Unauthorized use of this laser should be prevented by removing the On/Off key.
• Entrances to areas or protective enclosures containing Class IV lasers should be
posted with appropriate warning signs.
• Appropriate eye protection must be used in all hazard areas. Use eye protection
with OD 4 or above at 532 nm.

• A qualified technician must verify that the power plug used is properly grounded.
• The remote interlock connector should be connected to an emergency master
disconnect interlock or to room/door/fixture interlocks. Please refer to figure 1-5.
• The footswitch, the endoprobe, LIO, and the slit lamp adaptation/slit lamp should
be placed within 2 meters of the
PurePoint™
Laser console.
