1. INTRODUCTION AND SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS

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
operate the device.

WARNING!
Only qualified service personnel, authorized by Fotona,
should perform the installation of the system. Contact
Fotona or your local Fotona representative to obtain a

attempted by qualified service personnel, authorized by Fotona.

Potential equalization Safety Interlocks


Terminal
The system cannot deliver a treatment beam unless the fiber-optic delivery unit is
Figure 2 properly inserted and attached in its port on the system. If the Nd:YAG fiber-optic
delivery unit is removed from its port on the system, the laser is disabled and the
shutter closes. An advisory message will be shown on the system’s touch screen:
Nd:YAG FIBER NOT ATTACHED.

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 25/123


Location of Controls
All the controls of the laser system are located on the front panel of the device
(see Figure 1) for easy and safe access during operation, except for the main
power switch and the wireless foot switch (see Figure 2).

Safety Shutter
Each treatment laser incorporates a safety shutter, of which the positions are
monitored by the system.
The safety shutter for the corresponding treatment laser is open during laser
treatment only.

Connection Terminal for Potential Equalization Conductor


A potential equalization terminal (see Figure 2) is provided on the rear side of the
laser system to facilitate connection with a potential equalization busbar of the
electrical installation in the laser room if available. For this purpose a separate
potential equalization conductor must be used that can be attached to this
terminal. The terminal complies with the IEC 60601-1 standard.

Microprocessor Controlled Fault Detection


The laser system is a computer-controlled device with many built-in monitoring
and fault detection circuits and procedures.
If the system detects any fault that it cannot correct, it will immediately disable the
laser, close the safety shutter, block the footswitch and keyboard, and issue an
advisory or system inconsistency message with a corresponding code on the
touchscreen. Additionally, it will switch off the power supply and discharge the
energy storing capacitors.
The operator can remedy advisory messages pertaining to the foot switch, door
switch, fiber or overheating coolant related failures.
In case the system is blocked and displays an "ERROR Code XX" message,
immediately notify the technical service.

Energy Feedback Control Technology


The laser system incorporates a sophisticated double-channel safety structure for
energy regulation. Each laser pulse is measured and energy is regulated
according to a prescribed algorithm in the microprocessor.
The laser output energy is constantly regulated by a signal from a feedback
energy meter. A second energy meter also monitors the energy of the laser.
Should the readings of both energy meters differ by more than a prescribed value;
the system will shut down, the laser will disable, the safety shutter will close, and
an appropriate inconsistency message will be displayed.

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 29/123


4. THE LASER SYSTEM IN OPERATION
WARNING!
After unpacking, and before installing and operating the
laser system, it should be brought to normal room
temperature (above dew point), for at least 4 hours, in a
thermally stable environment (above 18ºC).
This is especially important when moving the laser
system into the laser room from outdoors when outside
temperatures are low.

4.1 Preparations for Use

• 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.

Page 30/123 87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13


4.2 Foot Switch and Interlock Connection
• Connect the foot-switch connector (see Figure 2) to its respective port at the
rear of the device.
If the foot switch is not properly connected, an advisory message appears on
the system’s touch screen after switching on the system.
The message will remain on-screen and the laser will remain inoperable, until
the foot switch is properly connected.
• A remote interlock plug is supplied with the laser system.
If the plug is removed, the laser will not operate and an advisory message
appears on the system’s touch screen after switching on the system.

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.

4.3 Laser Beam Delivery Systems and Handpiece Connection

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.

If in READY mode, the aiming beam spot is not visible at the


distal end of the delivery unit, its intensity is reduced or it
appears diffused, then this could be an indication of damage
to the laser delivery system.

Er:YAG Laser Beam Delivery System and Handpiece


Connection
(Note: Applies to XS and SP Dynamis or Spectro systems only)
The laser system is equipped with a 7-mirror articulated arm, which is
permanently attached to the laser system.
The articulated arm must be attached and its alignment checked during
installation of the laser system onsite. Only skilled and trained personnel,
authorized by Fotona, may perform the attachment and/or alignment
procedure. Contact Fotona or your local Fotona representative to obtain a
list of qualified and Fotona-authorized service personnel.
A variety of handpieces can be attached to the articulated arm. All handpieces
for Er:YAG are displayed in the Dynamis and Spectro laser systems Graphical
User Interface, grouped into the following types:
• Full beam straight (R04-Ti, R08-Ti, R09-2, R09-2G, R09-3, R11)
• Full beam scanned (S-Runner Scanner)
• Fractional (FS01)
• Fractional scanned (F-Runner scanner)

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 31/123


(see the list of compatible handpieces in the “Specifications” section).

WARNING!
Do not switch on the laser system without attaching a
handpiece to the articulated arm.

WARNING!
Carefully inspect the Er:YAG handpiece for any potential
damage before attaching it to the articulated arm.
The exit window and the proximal input lens must be
clean.
Do not use a damaged handpiece. This may result in
accidental fracture of the lens or exit window, lead to
excessive laser exposure to the operating room
personnel and/or patient, or cause fire in the operating
room.

Before switching the system on, select and attach the most appropriate
handpiece considering the intended therapeutic application.
Follow the instructions contained in the handpiece’s Operator Manual to
assemble and connect the handpiece before use. Additionally, follow the
instructions to set the handpiece type on the control panel before use (see the
"Selecting the Laser Treatment Parameters" section).

NOTE
The balancing weight located on the arm should be readjusted for each handpiece type.
To adjust the arm balance, turn the adjusting knob under the balancing weight. The
articulated arm is balanced differently for the scanner and the handpiece. For instructions
refer to the below section: Balancing the Articulated Arm.

Sterilization of Er:YAG Handpieces and Beam Delivery


Systems
Upon delivery, all handpieces and the F-Runner and S-Runner scanners are
non-sterile.

CAUTION!
Note that the supplied handpieces and scanners are not
sterile.
They should be sterilized before use according to the
instructions in the handpiece’s or scanner’s Operator
Manual.

Nd:YAG Laser Beam Delivery System and Handpiece


Connection
The Nd:YAG laser incorporated into the laser systems can be coupled to

Page 32/123 87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13


different fiber-optic delivery units with different fiber diameters. Each fiber-optic
delivery unit has a SMA905 fiber connector at its proximal end.
Some therapeutic procedures need only sterile bare optical fibers without any
handpiece.
There are also therapeutic procedures that require a sterile handpiece (like the
R27-400, R27-600 or R27-1000) to hold and manipulate the distal end of the
sterile fiber.
Some therapeutic procedures use a jumper fiber beam delivery that is connected
between the host laser system’s fiber coupling port and the optical handpiece
input (like the R33, R34, handpieces and S11 scanner). The jumper fiber beam
deliveries are not intended to be sterilized and are not intended to come in
contact with the patient.
The Nd:YAG handpieces in the Graphical User Interface of the Dynamis laser
systems are grouped according to the following types:
• Full beam straight (R33, R34)
• Full beam scanned (S11 Scanner)
• Bare fiber (Fiber 400, Fiber 600, Fiber 1000, R27-400, R27-600, R27-
1000)
Before switching the system on, select and attach the most appropriate fiber
beam delivery and handpiece considering the intended therapeutic application.
Make sure that the fiber-optic delivery unit is properly attached to the fiber-
coupling port on the system console. The laser system automatically detects if
the fiber is properly attached. The laser system disables the laser and displays
an advisory message in the event that a fiber is not inserted and attached in the
fiber-coupling port.
The jumper fiber-optic delivery end-face on both the proximal and distal sides
should always be protected with the protective covers supplied with the fiber
when not in use. Before attaching the jumper fiber beam deliveries to the laser
system and handpiece, remove the protective cover on each side of the fiber
and inspect the fiber end-face. The fiber end-faces must be clean with no visible
damage on them. Dirty fiber end-faces will surely cause damage to the fiber
beam delivery as well as to the fiber coupling optics assembly of the host laser
system.

CAUTION!
Please note that the fiber beam deliveries used with R33
and R34 handpiece are different than fiber deliveries
used for all other Nd:YAG handpieces, including the S11
Nd:YAG scanner. Carefully read the R33 and R34
handpiece Operator Manual to properly choose and
attach the correct fiber beam delivery for the R33 and
R34 handpieces.

CAUTION!
Fibers used with the R27 handpiece for endovenous
treatments and bare fibers used for lipolysis treatments
are single-use fibers delivered in sterile condition.
Please follow the instructions in the R27 handpiece
Operator Manual as well as the Application Notes for
handling the sterile fibers for endovenous and lipolysis
treatments.
The jumper fiber-optic delivery units for the R33 and R34
handpieces and the S11 scanner should NOT be
sterilized.

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 33/123


Sterilization of Nd:YAG Handpieces and Beam Delivery
Systems
• For Endovenous applications:
Endovenous applications are performed with 600 µm bare single-use or
reusable sterile fibers without any handpiece.

WARNING!
Use proper aseptic technique when removing single-use
or reusable 600 µm sterile fibers from their original
sterile packaging.
Do not reprocess fibers that are intended for single-use!
Reusable fibers are delivered with the instructions
provided by the fiber manufacturer. Reprocess the
reusable fibers according to instructions given in the
manufacturer’s Instructions For Use.

• For laser lipolysis applications:


Laser lipolysis is performed with the reusable R27 handpiece and a 600
or 1000 µm bare single-use sterile fiber. The supplied handpiece is not
sterile. To sterilize the reusable R27 handpiece, follow the instructions in
the R27 handpiece Operator Manual.

CAUTION
Note that the R27 handpiece is not sterile. It should be
sterilized before each use according to the instructions
in the handpiece’s Operator Manual. Reprocess the
handpiece in accordance with the instructions given in
the handpiece’s Operator Manual.

WARNING
Use proper aseptic technique when removing single-use
400, 600 or 1000 µm fibers from their original sterile
packaging. Also use proper aseptic technique when
removing the R27 handpiece from its sterilization pouch
after sterilization. Do not reprocess the 400, 600 or
1000 µm fibers that are intended for single-use.

Assemble the fiber-optic beam delivery unit with the handpiece according to the
handpiece’s Operator Manual.

Following the assembly, follow the instructions in this manual to select the laser
beam delivery type.

CAUTION!
The distal ends of sterile fiber-optic delivery units for
endovenous and laser lipolysis applications are bare
optical fibers.
The red aiming beam emerging from the distal fiber end
should be a regular, homogenous, illuminated circular
shape.
Do not use the fiber-optic delivery unit if the red aiming
beam is not visible.

Page 34/123 87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13


CAUTION!
The jumper fiber optic beam delivery unit used for the
R33 and R34 handpieces and the S11 Nd:YAG scanner
should be handled in accordance with instructions in
respective handpiece’s Operator Manual.
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.
If the aiming beam spot is not visible at the distal end of
the delivery unit, or if its intensity is reduced or it
appears diffused, then this could be an indication of
damage to the laser delivery system.

Assemble the fiber-optic delivery unit with the handpiece according to the
handpiece’s Operator Manual.
Do not kink, step on, pull or catch the fiber on any equipment.
Any damage to the fiber beam delivery unit can cause accidental laser exposure
to operating room personnel and/or the patient or may cause fire in the operating
room.
Follow the instructions to select the laser beam delivery type (see the "Selecting
the Laser Treatment Parameters" section).

4.4 Attaching and Setting Up the Fotona S-11 Scanner


Carefully read the Operator Manual for the Fotona S-11 scanner before
attaching the scanner to the host Fotona XP/SP Dynamis or Spectro laser
system.
1. Detach the jumper fiber-optic beam delivery system used for the
Nd:YAG single or multi spot handpieces.
2. Attach the scanner jumper fiber-optic beam delivery system to the fiber-
coupling port.
3. Attach the scanner electrical connector to the Nd:YAG scanner port on
the Fotona XP/SP Dynamis or Spectro front panel.
4. With the supplied clamps attach the scanner cable to the fiber beam
delivery at 40-50 cm intervals along the scanner cable (see Figure 3
below). By doing so, the scanner cable or fiber beam delivery will not
come in contact with the patient.
5. Attach the optics for a 3, 6, or 9 mm spot size to the Fotona S-11
scanner according to the instructions in the Fotona S-11 scanner
Operator Manual.
6. To correctly set the operating parameters, see the section: Nd:YAG S-

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!

Never use the jumper fiber beam delivery assembly


intended for the R33 or R34 handpieces with the S11
scanner or the R33 and R34 handpieces. This may cause
serious damage to S11 scanner or the R33 and R34
handpieces.

4.9 Graphical User Interface (GUI)

4.9.1. Dynamis and Spectro User Interface Features


Each laser source has a number of treatment groups, within which the user may
select from a number of pre-set treatments from a library. Many treatments can
be performed with different handpieces.

The Fotona Dynamis and Spectro laser systems support different handpieces for
the Er:YAG laser and for the Nd:YAG laser. During treatment selection, the
handpiece must also be selected. The user interface shows only those
handpieces that have been installed.

In laser systems that have two laser sources (Er:YAG and Nd:YAG), a dual-
wavelength TwinLight source can also be configured for groups of applications
that are multi-step treatments utilizing both the Er:YAG and Nd:YAG laser
wavelengths.

In model M001-12F only treatment groups that utilize the Nd:YAG laser source
are available.

In model M002-2A only treatment groups that utilize the Er:YAG laser source are
available.

For each laser source there is an Expert group (Expert Er or Expert Nd) in
which, rather than selecting an application (treatment), the user may select a
type of handpiece (like full beam straight, , full beam scanned, patterned beam
straight, , fractional , scanned fractional, bare fiber, etc..) and a particular
handpiece model.

The Expert group feature is intended for advanced users who are well
acquainted with Fotona handpieces and are capable of adjusting the settings
with the selected handpiece for the application they intend to perform.

4.9.2 Treatment Group Selection


After the laser system has completed the self-test, the Treatment Group
selection window (or HOME window) will be displayed on the touchscreen, with

Application Settings with Full Beam Handpieces
The Operating modes of the Er:YAG laser are represented by the mnemonics
MSP, SP, LP, VLP and XLP. They are acronyms for the pulse widths of the
Er:YAG laser:

• MSP – Micro Short Pulse


• SP – Short Pulse
• LP – Long Pulse
• VLP – Very Long Pulse
• XLP – Extra Long Pulse

The shortest pulses have the highest peak power.

The application screen appearance when full beam, straight or side-firing


handpieces with MSP, SP, LP, VLP and XLP operation modes is shown in

shape of the scan: Overlap, scan width X and scan height Y. The
steps necessary to modify these parameters are discussed in
the S-Runner operator manual.

Figure 26: Typical representative scan pattern of the S-Runner scanner.

Sequential Scanning Pattern


The Sequential scanning sequence performs a single, uninterrupted,
line-by-line scan across the entire scan area. This scanning sequence
can be particularly useful in situations when the practitioner wants to
cover a smaller scan area than the entire scan area, without having to
change the scan area size during the treatment.

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 57/123


Optimal Scanning Pattern
The Optimal scanning sequence performs a scan across the entire scan
area chosen by the practitioner in which neighboring and successive
spot deposition is avoided. The complete scanning sequence is
completed in four passes across the entire scan area. The Optimal
scanning sequence is recommended for performing scanner treatments
that require high fluence levels to be delivered to the skin at high
repetition rates.
Partial Scanning Pattern

The Partial scanning sequence is based on the same non-successive


spot deposition principles as the Optimal scanning sequence, with the
addition of an Autorepeat time between successive passes. Autorepeat
time is a variable, configurable pause that can be set by the practitioner
in the More Settings menu. The Autorepeat time pauses provide
additional cooling in the treatment site, which makes the Partial
scanning sequence particularly useful when treating patients with a low
pain threshold.
S-Runner Scanner Autorepeat Time Setting in the More Settings Menu
By touching the More Settings menu button in the application screen,
the More Settings screen for the S-Runner scanner will open, where in

4.9.9 Application Screens for the Nd:YAG Laser and Settings


Adjustment
As with Er:YAG applications, the appearance of the applications screen depends
on the type of handpiece and the operation mode.
There are applications screens for:
• Fotona pre-set applications and
• User-created personal applications (see above).
The settings adjustment is the same for both user-created personal applications
and Fotona pre-set applications. The only difference is that for user-created
personal applications, a change of handpiece cannot be performed.

Operation Modes for the Nd:YAG Laser


In Fotona Dynamis/Spectro lasers, two basic operation modes are implemented:
Pulse (VERSA or FRAC3), and QCW.

The VERSA operation mode stands for medium duration laser pulses ranging
from 5 to 50 ms. Their distinct feature is their high energy (up to 50 J). .
For pulse durations below 2 msec FRAC3 mode pulses can be selected.

The QCW operation mode stands for a continuous laser pulse train. This is used
for surgical applications. The pulsewidth range for QCW pulses ranges from 0.1
to 2 ms, with repetition rates up to 100 Hz.
For better control of the delivery of laser energy during the burst of pulses to the
same treatment area a Piano burst mode can be pre-selected.

2 mm Spot Size Selection with the S11 Scanner


When a 2 mm spot size is to be used on the Nd:YAG S11 scanner:
• Detach the standard 945 um fiber used for 3 mm, 6 mm or 9 mm
spots and attach the 600 um fiber to the S11 scanner and laser
system
• Setup and connect the scanner to the system according to the
instructions in the section Attaching and Setting up the Fotona
S-11 Scanner of this manual, and in the scanner operator
manual
• Attach the 3 mm inlet and outlet optics to the S11 scanner
• Select the 2 mm spot size in the application screen.

WARNING!
Optional 600 µm fiber beam delivery is to be used only with
3 mm inlet and output optics, and with the 2 mm spot size
selected on the keyboard. The optional 600 µm optical fiber
delivery is not to be used with the 6 mm or 9 mm inlet optics.
Never use the optional 600 µm fiber beam delivery when 3 mm,
6 mm or 9 mm spot sizes are selected in the Application
screen. When the optional 600 µm fiber beam delivery is used
in place of the standard 945 µm fiber beam delivery, and a
3 mm, 6 mm or 9 mm spot size is selected, the resulting output
fluence will be by factor of 2.5 times higher than that displayed

Scanning Pattern Selection:


By touching the scanning pattern button, a drop-down menu opens with
three options: Optimal, Sequential and Partial. Select the desired
scanning pattern by touching the desired option in the drop-down menu.

Sequential Scanning Pattern


The Sequential scanning sequence performs a single, uninterrupted,
line-by-line scan across the entire scan area. This scanning sequence is
useful when the practitioner wants to cover a smaller scan area than the
entire scan area, without changing the scan area size during the
treatment.

Optimal Scanning Pattern


The Optimal scanning sequence performs a scan across the entire scan
area chosen by the practitioner, in which neighboring and successive
spot deposition is avoided. The complete scanning sequence is

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 69/123


completed in four passes across the entire scan area. The OP scanning
sequence is recommended for performing scanner treatments that
require high fluence levels be delivered to the skin at high repetition
rates.

Partial Scanning Pattern


The Partial scanning sequence is based on the same non-successive
spot deposition principles as the Optimal scanning sequence with the
addition of an Autorepeat time between successive passes. Autorepeat
time is a variable, configurable pause that can be set by the practitioner
in the More Settings menu screen. The Autorepeat time pauses provide
additional cooling in the treatment site, which makes the Partial
scanning sequence particularly useful when treating patients with a low
pain threshold.

Autorepeat Functionality
Between each complete scan, during the Autorepeat pause, a temporary
outlining shape will be visible, indicating the Autorepeat pause. The
Autorepeat pause outline is shown as follows:

During this Autorepeat time the scanner should be moved to next


position.

Between each pass in the Partial scanning sequence during the


Autorepeat time, the outline shown below will appear:

To adjust the length of the autorepeat pause, adjust the Autorepeat time
in the More Settings menu screen. The length of the pause ranges from
0.3 to 3.0 seconds. When all four passes are finished in the Partial
scanning sequence, the outline will again be visible in the following
shape:

Please note that the Autorepeat time between each pass in the Partial
scanning sequence is equal to the Autorepeat time between consecutive
complete scans.

WARNING!
If, in READY mode, the red aiming beam does not outline
the selected scanning pattern, DO NOT use the scanner.
Contact technical service immediately!

4.10 Intra-Operative Instructions

System READY and STANDBY States


The system state is controlled by the STANDBY and READY button. The system
is in STANBY state when the STANDBY/READY button is colored grey.
When the READY button is touched, the system requests confirmation of the
selected handpiece and spot size as well as all settings with an advisory
message (see Figure 48 below).

Figure 48: Appearance of an advisory message in the application screen.

Confirm by pressing the OK key on the touchscreen. Then the system calibrates
the laser using the selected parameters. The safety shutter is closed during the
calibration of the laser.
After the calibration is complete and a safety timeout of 2 seconds has
terminated, the emission indicator (red ready light on the system’s front panel)
turns on, the READY button color changes from GREY to RED, and the safety
shutter opens. This indicates that the system is in the READY state. In the
READY state, the aiming beam emerges from the handpiece.
In the READY state the foot switch is enabled. By pressing the foot switch, the
treatment laser beam with the selected parameters is delivered from the
handpiece.
While the foot switch is pressed, an audio signal indicates that the laser is
delivering laser energy from the handpiece.

NOTE
If the foot switch is pressed during the calibration process, an advisory message will
appear. After the foot switch is released, the system will switch to STANDBY mode.
To complete the calibration, enter the READY state as described above.

If the system is in the READY state, pressing the READY button reverts the
system to the STANDBY mode and the READY button color changes to grey.
The safety shutter closes.
The system automatically reverts to STANDBY mode if the parameters are
changed during operation.
The system also reverts to standby mode if it is not fired for 3 minutes while in
the READY state. This is a safety feature.

CAUTION!
The system must be kept in STANDBY mode at all times,
except during the actual laser treatment.

Page 80/123 87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13


Keeping the system in STANDBY mode prevents
accidental laser exposure if the foot switch is
inadvertently pressed.

Starting the Treatment


• Press the READY key to enter the READY state if the system is in STANDBY
mode.
• Aim the aiming beam at the target tissue.
• Press the foot switch to activate the treatment beam with the selected
parameters.

While the foot switch is pressed, an audio signal indicates that the treatment
beam is emerging from the fiber beam delivery unit or handpiece.

WARNING!
If the red aiming beam is not visible in the READY state,
do not use the laser system.
The articulated arm’s beam delivery unit or the optical
handpiece may be damaged.
Using a damaged beam delivery unit or handpiece may
result in accidental laser exposure to the operating room
personnel or the patient and/or may cause fire in the
operating room.

WARNING!
The operator is solely responsible for properly selecting
and confirming the handpiece and the spot size on the
system console according to the intended application.
The delivered energy per pulse can differ significantly
from the intended energy per pulse and can potentially
damage the handpiece if an incorrect handpiece is
selected on the control panel.

WARNING!
When sterile fibers and handpieces are to be used, the
operator must appoint a person that will control the laser
system’s touchscreen (selecting and adjusting the
settings for treatment).

During the Treatment


(Note: Applies to SP and XP Dynamis only)
Always revert the system to the STANDBY mode and place the Nd:YAG
handpiece in its holder on the system console if surgery is interrupted for any
reason (e.g. to change the fiber-optic delivery unit or handpiece).

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 81/123


CAUTION!
When changing the spot size, the energy/fluence
setting will remain the same provided that the system is
capable of adjusting to the changed parameters. If the
system is incapable of delivering the same
fluence/energy for the changed spot size, then the
energy/fluence will change.
The ablation and coagulation depth may also change,
since the tissue effect depends on the spot size as well
as the energy and the mode.

WARNING!
Never look directly into the treatment or aiming laser
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.

After the Treatment


After the treatment, the following steps should be performed:
• If the system is in READY mode, press the STANDBY key to enter
STANDBY mode.
• Turn the key in the keylock switch to the vertical OFF position.
• Switch off the main switch at the rear of the device.
• If desired, disconnect the fiber-optic delivery unit or handpiece.
• Clean the system console and keyboard as instructed in the "Cleaning the
Laser Console External Surface" section.
• If desired, remove the footswitch plug from its port at the rear of the device.
• If desired, unplug the power cord of the device from mains electrical supply
outlet.

4.11 Moving the System


Before moving the system:
• Switch off the main power switch (located at the rear of the device).
• Lock the articulated arm using the strap with press-buttons on the rear
system handlebars and remove the fiber-optic delivery unit from its port on
the device.
• Disconnect the power plug from the mains electrical supply outlet.
• If the doorswitch interlock is used, detach its connector from its port at the
rear of the device.

5. MAINTENANCE
5.1 General
Fotona laser systems have been designed to provide years of trouble-free
operation. The built-in computers perform self-diagnostics and initiate corrective
actions when necessary, as well as automatic calibrations to ensure a properly
functioning system.
If a non-correctable inconsistency is detected, the laser system will disable and a
message that includes an inconsistency code will be displayed on the screen.

Er:YAG Laser (applies to models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)


A dirty window or lens on the handpiece is the most common cause of reduced
transmission of the Er:YAG laser beam. In such cases, it is advisable to clean
the window or lens.
If the handpiece lenses or a misalignment of the articulated arm cause the
failure, they should be replaced or aligned by technical service.

Nd:YAG Laser (applies to models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F)


If no visible aiming beam emerges from the fiber when the laser system is in the
READY state, it is advisable to replace the fiber or fiber-optic delivery unit
assembly.
Replacement fibers can be purchased from the local Fotona distributor.

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.

5.2 Troubleshooting Guide


All laser systems are rigorously, environmentally and mechanically tested.
In the unlikely event that the laser system fails to operate properly, most errors
are detected and displayed by the system itself.
If the system displays a message that advises you to call technical service, do
not attempt to repair the device yourself or to open the console.
Because of high voltages in the device, any unqualified repair attempt may be
life threatening.

Before switching on the system, always verify:


• that the mains electrical power supply is on.
• that the main switch on the rear side of the laser system is in the OFF

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 87/123


position and all electrical connections are correct and intact.
• that the doorswitch interlock plug is inserted in the doorswitch interlock port if
the doorswitch interlock is used in conjunction with a remote switch. Close
the interlock-protected door.
• that the beam delivery system is properly connected and terminated with a
handpiece or scanner.
• that the foot switch is properly connected.

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.

System inconsistencies with advisory messages can be remedied by the user.


All other inconsistencies detected by the system and displayed with an
identification error code need the intervention of technical service. In such cases,
please notify your Fotona representative and/or notify the technical service.

5.3 Operator Maintenance

Cleaning the Laser Console External Surface


After each treatment session, wipe the external surface of the laser console and
the control panel with a cloth dampened with a non-caustic cleaning solution,
such as soap and water, isopropyl alcohol, or a “hospital-grade” disinfectant, in
order to maintain cleanliness and hygiene.
Dry the console with a clean cloth.
Do not spray or pour cleaning agents on the laser system console.

Cleaning the Cooling Air Filter


There are four air filters used to filter incoming cooling air.
The first one is located behind the laser system’s front panel. The air filter
cartridge can be easily removed by opening the door on the front side of the
system’s lower housing and pushing down the handle that is accessible from the
bottom part of the front panel.
The second air filter is at the bottom of the laser device. The air filter cartridge
can be easily removed by pulling back the handle on the rear bottom side of the
laser device.
The two side filters are on the lower part of the laser console. Access to them
depends on the type of the system:
With models M002-2A Dynamis and M001-12F and M021-4AF/3 Spectro, they
are accessible from the inner side of the laser system console’s lower section.
First, the rear cover that holds the two additional heat exchangers is to be

Page 88/123 87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13


removed. After removal, clean each air filter or replace it.
With models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F Dynamis, the two side filters can be
removed from the system with their cartridges by gently lifting each cartridge
upward. After removal, clean each air filter or replace it.
New air filters are available from the local Fotona distributor.
Reassemble the air filter cartridges in reverse order.
A dirty and blocked air filter may reduce the cooling capacity of the system,
which may lead to overheating of the laser.
The air filters should be cleaned at least twice a year.

Electrical power supply

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 system that operate at a rated long-term current of 12 A, the


electrical power must be supplied from a grounded 16 A mains electrical
outlet.
Carefully review the electrical specifications in the “Specifications”
section.

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

87009 OM Dynamis Pro Line USA ENG 13 Page 89/123


The Fotona Dynamis and Spectro lasers incorporate an internal self-contained
cooling system.
No water utilities for cooling purposes are required for system operation.

Evacuation (Suction) Utilities


The customer must provide an efficient evacuation utility to be used for suction
of the remains of ablated and vaporized tissue.
The filters in this evacuation utility must be checked and replaced regularly by
the customer according to its manufacturer’s instructions.

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.

Regular Inspection of Laser Safety Related Features


Energy meters calibration
The laser system incorporates two energy meters per laser source; they should
be checked for calibration on a yearly basis.

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.

Leakage currents and grounding impedance of the laser system


measurements
This procedure should be performed on a yearly basis. The earth leakage
current and patient leakage current, as well as the grounding impedance of the
laser system should be measured during the procedure.

NOTE
Leakage currents and grounding impedance should only be measured, according to the
instructions in the system’s Service Manual, 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.

8. STORAGE AND SHIPMENT
The laser system has been designed for long-term storage in a normal office
environment.
Protect the system from adverse conditions such as extreme temperature and
condensing moisture.
In no case should the laser system be exposed to temperatures below 0°C.
Cooling system damage, as well as moisture induced damage to the electronics
of the system could ensue under such circumstances.
If long-term storage is anticipated, enclosing a package with fresh silica-gel
desiccant will protect the console from condensed water.
