Function
The user activates functions on the aBox 2.
The functions of the remote switches/
programmable buttons are pre-configured from
factory and can be re-configured according to
the user's preference. Each button can be
programmed to be sensitive on both short and
long press. See aBox 2 IFU for further details.
The Up/Down control wheel manipulates the
bending section of the endoscope. When this
wheel is turned in the "U" direction, the
bending section moves UP; when the wheel is
turned in the "D" direction, the bending section
moves DOWN.
Turning this lock in the "F " direction frees
angulation. Turning the lock into the opposite
direction locks the bending section at any
desired position along the up/down axis.
The removable suction valve controls suction.
When pressed down, suction is activated to
remove any fluids, debris or gas from the patient.
The insufflation/rinsing valve controls insufflation
and lens rinsing. Placing a finger on the opening
of the valve activates insufflation. When pressed
fully down, lens rinsing is activated.
The Right/Left control wheel manipulates the
bending section of the endoscope. When this
wheel is turned in the "R" direction, the bending
section moves RIGHT; when the wheel is turned in
the "L" direction, the bending section moves LEFT.
Turning this lock in the "F" direction frees
angulation. Turning the lock into the opposite
direction locks the bending section at any
desired position along the right/left axis.
The biopsy valve seals the working channel.
The working channel functions as:
•
Suction channel.
•
Channel for the insertion or connection of
endotherapy accessories.
•
Fluid feed channel (from a syringe via the
biopsy valve).
The flexible insertion tube is inserted into the
patient's upper GI tract.
The bending section is the manoeuvrable part
of the aScope Gastro, that can be controlled by
the control wheels and angulation locks.
