Laser Sys

Stim 540, Therapeutic Laser— Rev.F_07/03/12

 Pulse mode: this 11 position display shows the selected pulse mode frequency. If SWEEP is

selected, during the treatment the display will show the current pulse mode, see figure 2.1(3).

 Laser output: this bargraph display shows the amount of incident laser energy measured by

the LASER OUTPUT SENSOR, the 100% level indicates the laser is at 100% i.e. 80mW. See

figure 2.1(10).

 If the bargraph has several bars illuminated beyond the '%' mark (ie total of 15 segments

illuminated) is possible the laser is emitting at a higher level, it is recommended the unit be

checked for calibration as soon as possible by a service facility specializing in medical lasers.

 Battery level: this bargraph display shows the battery level range 0 to 100%, see figure 2.1(4).

Laser Output Sensor

This sensor is used to display and verify the output from the laser applicator when laser energy is

being emitted. Note: Ensure measurement is performed using Continuous Pulse Mode, figure 2.1(11).

Please note: This sensor does not work with the cluster applicator.

Membrane Keypad

These six keys enable the operator to input and manipulate the user selectable parameters of the

Laser Sys

Stim 540 to obtain the desired treatment.

 Timer “Up” and “Down”: these two arrow keys are used to set the treatment time, which is

displayed on the display above the keys, see figure 2.1(2).

 Output “Up” and “Down”: these two arrow keys are used to set the treatment dosage energy,

which is displayed on the display above the keys, see figure 2.1(7).

 Pulse Mode: this key selects the Pulse mode which is displayed on the display above the key,

pressing the key indexes the Pulse mode selection to the right, see figure 2.1(9).

 Program: this key selects the 0 to 9 available user programmable memories, allowing the

practitioner to store and recall configurations. Pressing the key indexes through the memories,

figure 2.1(8).

Mains/Charging Indicator
