1.1 General
The Fotona Dynamis Pro Line of laser systems incorporate lasers that operate in
the invisible near- and mid-infrared ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum, as
well as an aiming beam laser that operates in the visible range.
The Variable Square Pulse (VSP) Technology integrated in Fotona’s laser
systems allows control of laser energy and laser pulse length.
There are three basic models in the Fotona Dynamis Pro Line (M021-4AF/3,
M002-2A, M001-12F), each incorporating a different combination of laser sources
and graphical user interface possibilities:
SP Dynamis, SP Spectro, M021-4AF/3:
• Er:YAG laser, with a wavelength of 2940 nm
• Nd:YAG laser, with a wavelength of 1064 nm
XS Dynamis, M002-2A:
• Er:YAG laser, with a wavelength of 2940 nm
XP Dynamis, XP Spectro, M001-12F:
• Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm
The aiming laser in all models is a semiconductor diode laser with a wavelength
of 650 nm.
Both treatment laser types are pulsed solid-state lasers that generate high-energy
concentrated light, which may cause serious injury if used improperly.
For this reason, the operator must carefully read this manual before attempting 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 above mentioned Fotona laser systems are used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the laser systems should be observed to verify normal operation. If
abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the laser
device.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strength should be less then (V1) V/m.
• Identify the laser room clearly. Place appropriate warning signs in prominent
locations at all entrances to the laser room.
• Cover windows, portholes, etc. with opaque material to prevent laser light
from escaping from the laser room.
• When the Fotona Dynamis/Spectro laser device is in operation, restrict entry
and limit laser room access to personnel that are booth essential to the
procedure and well trained in laser safety precautions.
• Make sure that all laser room personnel are familiar with the laser system
controls and know how to shut down the laser instantly in an emergency.
• The laser room environment above the laser system must be free from any
obstacles to allow free manipulation of the articulated arm in all operating
positions. Ensure that nothing can fall on the articulated arm.
• The patient must be placed on either side of the laser system in such a
position that he/she cannot reach the laser system console, the touchscreen
or the footswitch and rear side of the equipment.
• When sterile fibers and handpieces are to be used, the operator must appoint
a person who will control the laser (selecting and adjusting the settings for
treatment) on the system touchscreen.
• Inspect and ensure that the device’s cooling air inlet and outlet are not
blocked or hindered in any way for efficient cooling.
The device should be placed in the laser treatment room so that a minimum
of 1 meter distance is left between the rear side of the device and any
obstacle (e.g. wall, other devices, etc.).
The laser system is designed to operate with ambient temperatures not
exceeding 29°C. In case of higher ambient temperatures, the system may
report a “Coolant overheated” advisory message.
• Inspect and ensure that the main switch (located at the rear of the device,
see Figure 2) is switched off.
• Verify that the switch for the electrical supply outlet used for the laser device
is switched on.
• Inspect and ensure that the device’s power cord is properly inserted in the
mains electrical supply outlet.
To set up a door switch interlock connection in the laser procedure room, please
consult your dealer for assistance.
The door switch interlock port, designated as "DOORSWITCH", is located at the
rear of the device (see Figure 2). When properly set-up, the interlock will disable
laser operation immediately if the laser procedure room door is opened. The
system closes the safety shutter, and reverts to STANDBY mode. An advisory
message appears on the system’s touch screen. To resume operation, close the
laser procedure room door and press the READY key.
CAUTION!
Since the aiming beam passes down the same laser beam
delivery systems as the treatment beam, it provides a good
method of checking the integrity of the laser beam delivery
system.
WARNING!

Follow the instructions to select the laser beam delivery type (see the "Selecting
the Laser Treatment Parameters" section).
NOTE
When using the Fotona S-11 scanner, three different spot sizes can be selected: 3 mm,
6 mm and 9 mm.
Attach the optics for the desired spot size to the Fotona S-11 scanner head. If the
attached optics does not match the selected spot size on the touchscreen, the system
will issue an advisory message to attach the correct optics.
If a 2 mm spot size is to be used with the S11 scanner, a 600 um fiber instead of the
standard 945 um jumper fiber delivery should be utilized together with 3 mm inlet and
outlet optics. The 945 um fiber is to be detached from the S11 scanner and laser system
and replaced by a 600 um jumper fiber beam delivery.
WARNING!
Never use the 600 um jumper fiber beam delivery for
3 mm, 6 mm or 9 mm spot size with the S11 scanner. The
fluences realized with 3 mm, 6 mm and 9 mm spot sizes
will be 2.5 times higher than that selected on the display,
which may cause serious injury.
The 3 mm, 6 mm and 9 mm spot sizes should always use
the standard 945 µm fiber.
WARNING!
NOTE
The scanner cable must be attached with the supplied clamps along the articulated
arm as shown in Figure 4 below.
When using a handpiece, rotate the balance weight so that the white part of the
balancing weight is closer to the articulated arm holder and align the red spot on
the weight with the red spot on the articulated arm (as in Figure 5 Bottom). When
using a scanner rotate the weight 180 degrees (as in Figure 5 Top). The black
counterbalance screw can be adjusted according to the user’s preference.
Figure 5: Articulated arm and balance. In scanner position (Top) and in handpiece position (Bottom).
In cases where sterile fibers and handpieces are used, the operator must
appoint a responsible person for selecting and adjusting the settings for the

beam or scattered laser light from reflective surfaces.
Never look directly into the laser aperture, optical fiber
tip, articulated arm exit aperture or handpiece exit when
power is applied to the laser, even when laser safety
eyewear is worn.
Severe and/or permanent eye damage may occur.
CAUTION!
It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure safe and
problem-free operation of the laser system by means of
regular preventive maintenance and periodical testing as
described in this section. The user is held responsible
for all eventual problems and unsafe operation of the
laser system arising from failing to perform or organize
the preventive maintenance and/or periodical testing
procedures prescribed in this section.
CAUTION!
Do not use the device if the system touchscreen
remains blank after switching on the main switch at
the rear of the device.
Switch the system off and notify the technical
service.
NOTE
If an inconsistency is detected and the device does not display any advisory messages,
switch the system off.
Wait for 1 minute and then switch the system on again.
In case the error repeats, notify the technical service.
CAUTION!
Fotona laser systems that operate at a rated current of 19 A should be
connected to an electrical mains supply with a grounded mains outlet
with a suitable plug that is certified for the rated current of the device.
The connection must comply with all local, state and/or national electrical
regulations for the rated current of the device.
For laser systems that operate at a rated current of 19 A, electrical power must
be supplied from a 220 – 240 V AC ±10%, single phase, 50/60 Hz mains with a
protective earth connection. The supply line must be provided with a dual pole
circuit breaker (Type C). The laser system comes with a power cord with free
wires that cannot be detached from the device. An adequate (for example IEC
309) electrical supply outlet that is certified for a rated current of at least 20 A
must be provided with a suitable plug. The distal part of the power cord must
therefore be connected to a properly prepared electrical mains outlet in
compliance with all applicable local, state and/or national electrical regulations
and codes which apply to electrical connections.
For laser systems that operate at a rated Long term current of 12 A, the
electrical power must be supplied from a 220 – 240 V AC ±10% single phase
50/60 Hz, 16 A outlet with a grounding. The laser system also comes with a
power cord that cannot be detached from the device. An adequate plug and
electrical power supply outlet must be provided and all electrical requirements
must be fulfilled prior to installing the system onsite.
All models of the Dynamis and Spectro familiy of lasers have been designed to
provide allowable leakage currents for Class I, Type B devices in accordance
with the requirements of EN 60601-1 (IEC 60601-1) and UL 544; an additional
isolation transformer is not required.
For safety reasons, periodical testing of the onsite electrical power supply
utilities on a yearly basis, including measurements of leakage currents, is
recommended. Testing should be performed by a qualified and certified
technical service.
Water Utilities
CAUTION!
High speed evacuation of the laser smoke plume is
required when lasing herpes and other lesions that
may contain viral entities. Virus particles may rise in
the laser plume and can re-infect the patient in other
anatomical areas (e.g. lungs) and possibly infect the
laser operator and other operating room personnel.
NOTE
The energy meters should only be calibrated by qualified service personnel, authorized by
Fotona. Contact Fotona or your local Fotona representative to obtain a list of qualified and
Fotona authorized service personnel.
NOTE
Leakage currents and grounding impedance should only be measured, according to the
