- Warnings and Cautions
- 1. Read this operating manual thoroughly and be familiar with its contents prior to using this equipment.
- 2. Carefully unpack the unit and check if any damage occurred during shipment. If damage is detected, please refer to the Service section in this manual.
- 3. Avoid removing covers on the unit and attempting internal repairs or adjustments not specifically detailed in this operating manual.
- 4. Pay close attention to the care and cleaning instructions in this manual. A deviation may cause damage to the device.
- 5. Never sterilize the Wireless Universal footswitch components.
- 6. Be completely familiar and comfortable with the operation of the Wireless Universal footswitch. Training may be required before some operators are thoroughly familiar with how to properly operate the footswitch.
- 7. When the Receiver is interconnected with other medical electrical equipment, leakage currents may be additive. Ensure all systems are installed according to the requirements of IEC 60601-1-1.
- Symbol Definitions
- Product Description and Intended Use
- 1. A wireless footswitch, which provides pedals similar to those found on other footswitches and transmits radio signals to a radio receiver console
- 2. A radio receiver console, which routes commands from the footswitch to devices that connect to the receiver’s rear panel.

- 1. Power Switch: Powers on and off the receiver. The switch will illuminate when the unit is on.
- 2. Synchronize port 1: Enables a footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 1.”
- 3. Mode button 1: Selects which device footswitch 1 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch.
- 4. Active-device display 1: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 1 (which “mode” footswitch 1 is in).
- 5. Active-device display 2: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 2 (which “mode” footswitch 2 is in).
- 6. Mode button 2: Selects which device footswitch 2 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch
- 7. Synchronize port 2: Enables a second footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 2.”
- Rear Panel
- 1. TPS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the TPS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the TPS console.
- 2. SERFAS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the SERFAS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the SERFAS console.
- 3. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
- 4. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
- 5. SFB Serial Connectors: Enables firewire connection with newer devices, such as CORE and SERFAS Energy, eliminating the need for multiple connection cables.
- 6. Volume control: Controls the output volume.
- 7. AC-power input: Connects to the AC Power cord, which connects to a hospital-grade power outlet.

Guidance and Manufacturer's Declaration: Electromagnetic Immunity
iSwitch is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or
the user of iSwitch should ensure that it is used in such an environment.

equipment should be used no closer to any

frequency of the transmitter.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following symbol:
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
(a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast, cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site
survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the iSwitch system is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the iSwitch system should be observed to verify normal opera
-
tion. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocat-
ing the iSwitch unit.
(b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
