Standby Screen
The system defaults to Standby mode when a new surgical case is started and the Standby screen is displayed.
All antennas are off while in Standby. The system will not count sponges into or out of the surgical case while
in Standby. The purpose of Standby is to allow the system to stay inactive while not in use. You can switch to
any other mode from the Standby screen with the navigation buttons along the bottom of the screen.
Refer to page 4-3 for a description of Standby mode.
Figure 2-7 Standby Screen
Count In Screen
The Count In screen is displayed while in Count In mode. Count In mode is used for scanning packs of sponges
into the surgical case. The In Scanner’s antenna actively looks for sponge packs while in Count In mode.
Sponge packs that are swiped across the In Scanner will be added to the In column of the onscreen sponge
counts. Both the wand and basin antennas are off during Count In mode
Refer to page 4-4 for a description of Count In mode.
