SET-UP AND OPERATION
After a 15-second warm-up period, the light output will stabilize at its normal
intensity. The fiber optic bundle must be plugged in to stabilize light output.
CAUTION: Verify that the supply voltage matches the voltage range
indicated on the rear of the Welch Allyn Light Source.
To prevent temporary blinding, turn power on only after the fiber optic
bundle is plugged in and the intensity control knob is set to the
minimum position.
The fiber optic bundle port is hot when fiber optic bundle is removed.
On
1. Plug the Welch Allyn Light Source into a hospital-grade receptacle.
2. Turn the light-intensity control knob to its minimum position. Plug the fiber optic
bundle into the illuminator port and connect the opposite end to the instrument.
3. Turn the power switch to the on position. The lamp will take 15 seconds to
complete its warm-up cycle.
4. Set light intensity to desired level.
5. Turn unit off when not in use.
NOTE: Do not restart lamp immediately after turning off. The lamp may fail to
start. If this occurs, turn the power switch off and wait 15 seconds before
restarting the Welch Allyn Light Source.
