The TPS console allows the user to select functions and settings such as handpiece selection, speed, and direction.
Designed to be easy to use and understand, the touch sensitive control screen allows you to set the system controls with
the touch of a finger. Interactive icons on the control panel represent system components and functions. The control
screen also provides important monitoring information for the selected handpiece.

Control screen visually presents options which can be set
for the selected handpiece.
Icons represent elements of your TPS system. Icons are
functional buttons. Each function may be selected by
pressing the screen where the button is displayed. When
you touch an icon, the icon appears to be pressed down
and the graphic symbol highlights to indicate that it is
activated. (See Icon Definition).
NOTE: An audible signal indicates interface with icons.
NOTE: Buttons such as the adjust arrows or OPT button
which are temporary toggles or adjustment buttons only
highlight while depressed.
NOTE: Buttons with a white background are toggle buttons.
NOTE: Options vary among different handpieces. The
console will only display the options available for a given
handpiece.
Handpiece identification displays the name of the active
handpiece. NOTE: Handpieces can be plugged into each
of the console's handpiece ports, but only one can be
selected at a time.
NOTE: When *CUSTOM* is displayed at the top of the
screen, the console's default settings are selected from
Surgeon Preferences. The console is able to capture the
preferred settings for several different users. When this
feature is activated, the preferred settings act as default
settings. See Surgeon Preference for further details.
Handpiece speed information displays the default speed
for each handpiece until you reset speed settings.
While the handpiece is running, the display shows the
actual handpiece speed. If the handpiece is not running
the default or selected speed is displayed.
NOTE: Incremental information displayed on the control
screen is accurate within +/-1%.
