Using the Arthroscopy Indication
en
9.5.1 Screen Displays of the Arthroscopy Indication
Follow these steps to select a different joint type.
1. Press the [Indication selection] (8) symbol. The indication selection opens.
2. Press the [ARTHRO] function field. The joint selection opens.
3. Select the desired joint type.
9.5.2 Automatic Instrument Recognition
Improved pressure measuring due to the in-
strument detection function
The device features the automatic instrument detection function when using the
Arthroscopy. The automatic instrument detection function runs in the back after
each start of the irrigation process and serves to compensate pressure losses due
to the flow through the narrow working channel. The pressure drop at the instru-
ment is here included in the measured value of the actual pressure.
9.5.3 Preselecting the Nominal Pressure
The nominal pressure can be increased or decreased while the device is being
used or not used. Values may be in the range from 15 to -200 mmHg.
Increasing nominal pressure • Briefly press the [+] symbol to increase the nominal pressure in increments of
5 mmHg. Pressing the [+] symbol longer than 1.5 seconds activates scrolling of
the values in increments of 10 mmHg.
The nominal pressure can also be raised with the help of the remote control
(see Chapter 6.13 "Using the Remote Control (Optional)").
Factory setting: See Table 9-2
