Hermes READY™ TPS Consoles
REF 5100-201 and 5100-250
A Hermes-Interface cable links the two
systems. Linking the system does not
affect the normal function of the console.
At any time, console functions may be
selected from the control screen or by
using a control accessory such as a TPS
footswitch.
WARNINGS:
! Only the Hermes Operating Room
Control Center is approved for use
with the TPS console. Do not plug
any other device into the Hermes
console port. Use of other devices
may damage the console.
! It is important to read and understand
the Hermes Operating Room Control
Center instructions; the use of the
TPS console with the Hermes
Operating Room Control Center is
explained in those instructions.
! Stryker recommends attaching an
alternate control accessory
(footswitch) to the console in the event
the Hermes System fails during
surgery.
NOTE: The port labeled DATA PORT is
intended for the manufacturer's use only.
If you have questions about using the
Hermes System with the TPS console,
