5.1. Mains inlet and auxiliary power supplies


The mains power is entering the system through a fixed power cord followed by a
double pole circuit breaker and mains (EMI) filter A.
NOTE
The double pole circuit breaker rating is:
25A for DYNAMIS LINE laser systems with rated current of 19 A
15A for SPECTRO LINE laser systems with rated current of 12 A

NOTE
To meet the Canadian national rule the additional fuse were implemented
after the main switch.

After turning on the main switch on the rear side of the system the 24/12/5Vdc
auxiliary power supply turns on. The 12Vdc and 5 Vdc from auxiliary supply is
powering the Controller assembly, 8.4” LCD monitor with Touch-screen. The
Scanner adapter assembly is powered with 12Vdc.
The 24Vdc from auxiliary supply is supplying the following circuits:
 The 24Vdc part of the Controller
 Footswitch
 Door switch,

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 25/187


 Emergency STOP switch,
 Relay soft-start assembly and through this board the
 cooling system pump motor
 the cooling fans
 the flow sensor
 ENERGY METER assembly and
 HEAD CONTROL board with safety shutters

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 26/187


When the auxiliary supply is turned on the Controller starts the booting sequence. There are two industrial
class computers (PC WAFER) in the Controller.
 One is in the GUI (Graphical Use Interface) Controller used for running the
LCD color Touch-screen that allows selection of treatments and their settings
as well as for running different utility programs used for system settings and
servicing.
 The second is in SYS Controller that via I/O Dynamis TS board controls all the
peripheral units in the laser system as well as the lasers.
After booting sequence of both computers the system performs a detection of
installed handpieces and scanners, displays a welcome screen and requests from
the operator to turn on the Key-lock switch. When the Key-lock switch is turned on
a complete self-test of the system is performed and the treatments groups
selection as well as laser source menu screen is displayed.
The auxiliary power supply is a medical grade global switcher that generates 24,
12 and 5 Vdc voltages.

5.2. Power distribution circuit – RELAY TS1 board


Please refer to the drawings and schematics TV RELAY TS 1 enclosed in section
10 of this Technical file.
The mains voltage from mains filter A is connected via X3 terminal block to the
Relay TS 1 board.
The mains voltage is via relay K2B and K3B (that can be disabled with the
Emergency Stop button on the front panel) further distributed to the Charger
(through Relays K5 and K6) and auxiliary power supply primary through terminal
blocks X2.
The 24Vdc, 12Vdc and 5Vdc voltage form auxiliary power supply is connected via
terminal blocks X4 to Relay TS 1 board and distributed through connector X9 to
Energy meter, Head Control and Controller assembly.
The control signals from Controller assembly and Emergency Stop switch are fed
to this this board through connector X4.
During the start-up of the system, due to high starting current of the cooling system
pump motor, the soft start circuit (FETs V11 and V13) on this board limits the
inrush current and therefore prevents from high voltage drop in the 24VDC
auxiliary supply voltage. The motor as well as the cooling system fans are
connected via X2 terminal blocks to the soft start circuit. The Charger is turned on
and off through Relays K5 and K6 on SW control from Controller assembly
(CHARGER DRV on X4 connector pin 2).

5.3. Controller assembly


Please refer to drawings Controller DS TS and TV I/O Dynamis TS Schematics.
The Controller assembly consists of SYS Controller and GUI Controller.
The SYS Controller is controlling the whole laser system and is responsible for
system safety.
The GUI Controller is driving the Graphical User Interface on 8.4” LCD color
Touch-screen monitor and communicating with SYS Controller the settings for
each laser as well as the STBY, READY states and advisory or error messages of
the device.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 27/187


The SYS Controller consists of I/O Dynamis TS board and an industrial class PC
computer (PC WAFER). They are connected through PC104 bus flat cable and
COM2 RS232 cable. All the communication with Key-lock switch, Door-switch,
Foot-switch, Charger, PFM41, Cooling system, Energy meter, Safety shutters,
aiming beam laser and scanner assemblies is preformed through I/O Dynamis TS
board. The PC computer's SYS SW is on detachable Flash card. Update of SYS
SW is possible by changing the Flashcard or by the use of USB Memory stick
attached to the computer. The SYS PC computer assembly can be connected to
an external VGA monitor. If the external monitor is attached to the SYS PC
computer additional information can be accessed and advanced servicing can be
performed on the system. During advanced servicing of the system (only on
request by Fotona service staff!) an external PC compatible keyboard can be
connected to the SYS PC computer.
The SYS PC is communicating with GUI PC via COM1 and with S22 Scanner
adapter through COM2 serial port (RS232). The communication with S22 scanner
adapter is via I/O Dynamis TS board where the serial communication is converted
to optical (plastic fibers OW 29 and OW 30).
The GUI Controller consists of another industrial class PC computer (same as in
SYS Controller). The GUI PC is with LVDS cable connected to 8.4” LCD monitor
and through USB serial communication with the Touch-screen controller. The 8.4”
color LCD Monitor is supplied with 12Vdc and 5 Vdc from GUI PC assembly. The
MatrixView or MatrixView S non-contact temperature sensor when attached to the
Er:YAG Scanner port is through USB communicating directly with GUI PC
computer only. An USB port on GUI PC computer is available for SW upgrade.
The USB port for GUI PC SW upgrade is also available on the rear side of the
laser system housing (when the protective metal sheet cover for this port is
removed by the use of tool).
Both PC computers are all-in-one CPU boards of PC/104 family (WAFER-LX-800-
R12 IEI) with 512 MB SO DIMM DDRAM, CF Type II flash module, 1x IDE
Interface, VGA interface, I/O ports: 2 x RS-232, 1 x RS-422/485, 2 x USB 2.0 and

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 30/187


NOTE
Please note that the version of S11 SW should be version 1.9 or higher for
proper communication with TS S22 Scanner adapter in Fotona
Dynamis/Spectro laser systems.
If S11 Scanner is to be used with L-Runner scanning mode the S11 Scanner
SW version must be 2.0.
The versions of S22 (S-Runner)/F22 (F-Runner) Scanner SW should be 3.6
or 4.6 or higher for proper communication with TS S22 Scanner adapter.
The version of SW for TS S22 Scanner adapter should be 5.7 or higher to
support L-Runner scaning mode of S11 scanner and S22-T (T-Runner)
Scanner operation.

NOTE on use of Model G22 (G-Runner) Gynecological scanner


The Fotona model G22 (G-Runner) Er:YAG Gynecological scanner can be used
with models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A laser systems with GUI SW versions 27 or
higher.
The G-Runner Scanner is attached to laser system footswitch connector through
the G-Runner interface box. The laser system footswitch is then attached to G-
Runner interface box fotswitch receptacle. The so attached G-Runner when
selected in laser system GUI with suitable adapter for selected application actually
enables/disables the footswitch signal to laser system according to selected mode
of operation of G-Runner scanner. Please note that for correct operation of G-
Runner scanner with laser system is achieved only if the selected mode of G-
Runner operation in GUI mathes the manually selected mode on G-Runner
Scanner keyboard. For proper use of G-Runner scanner please refer to G-Runner
Operator Manual.
The G-Runner scanner therefore does not communicate with the laser system
controller or Scanner adapter.
NOTE on use of L-Runner scanning mode of S11 Scanner
The L-Runner scanning mode is available with S11 scanner when
 9 mm inlet optics is attached to S11 scanner
 A Long (19 cm) spacer instead of Short (13 cm) spacer is attached to S11
scanner
 Additionallya non-contact temperature sensor MatrixView S can be
attached to Long spacer to monitor and display the skin surface
temperature if available.
 When application with L-Runner selection in host laser system GUI is
selected.
Only S11 scanner SW versions 2.0 or higher as well as TS S22 Scanner adapter
assembly SW version 5.7 or higher are offering full capabilities L-Runner sacnning
mode of S11 scanner.
The Laser spot diameter of S11 scanner with Long spacer and 9 mm optics
attached is 11 mm.

a) For TS S22 Scanner adapter assembly SW vesion 5.7 and higher AND
S11 Scanner SW version 2.0 and higher:

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 31/187


When application with L-Runner is selected in GUI, the S11 Scanner
adjusts the selected scan size in GUI and Ovelrap (Density) from host
laser system. No manual adjustments on S11 scanner keyboard are
needed. The S11 scanner keyboard is blocked.
Autorepeat time adjustment is set by the host laser system and cannot be
selected in More menu.

b) L-Runner mode with S11 scanner SW version 1.9 or lower OR TS S22


scanner adapter SW version 5.6 or lower
The scan size selected on host laser system GUI when L-Runner is
selected must be manually adjusted with keys on S11 scanner
keyboard to match the values displayed in GUI, and
The Density (Overlap) must be manualy set to minimal value (13%)
corresponding to green light of Density LED.
Autorepeat time adjustment is set by the host system and cannot be
selected in More menu.

When L-Runner selected in GUI on SP Spectro or XP Spectro due to reduced


available average power of Nd:YAG laser (35 W in comparsion to 80W in SP
Dynamis or XP Dynamis), the maximal scan size (surface) for selected irradiance
(W/cm2) will be correspondigly smaller.

NOTE on use of T-Runner Er:YAG Scanner


The T-Runner Scanner (model S22-T) is a modified S-Runner scanner. The T-
Runner scanner uses a different optics than the S-Runner scanner. It has two
spacers:
• Long spacer that generates a spot size of 8 mm and allows max scan sizes of 80
x 80mm (corresponds to selection of T-Runner body in GUI)
• Short spacer (same as for S-Runner scanner) that generates a spot size of 7.4
mm and can fit scan sizes 40 x 40 mm (corresponds to selection of T-Runner face
in GUI).
Operation of T-Runner scanner is supported with Dynamis Spectro Systems with
Touchscreen. The conditions for host laser syste for T-Runner support with Long
(23cm) spacer ONLY are:
 The GUI SW version must be 29 or higher
 The SYS SW version must be 3.1 or higher
 The S22 Scanner adapter board SW in host laser system must have a SW
version 5.7 or higher.

For support of T-Runner Er:YAG Scanner operation with BOTH Long (23 cm)
spacer and Short (17 cm ) spacer the following conditions for SW configuration of
host laser sytem must be met:
• The GUI SW version should 40 or higher
• The SYS SW version must be 3.9 or higher

The Ready state warning light is located in the front panel and shines RED when
the laser is in READY state. The Laser emission warning comes on in Ready
button when footswitch is pressed and an audible sound is generated to indicate
that the device is emitting laser radiation.
The graphical user interface of the system allows selection of laser source type
and treatments groups (see Figure 3).
When the main circuit breaker is turned on the LCD monitor shows a generic
Fotona logotype screen that remains for a while. The SYS controller performs in
this state the first part of self test (integrity checking of SYS controller, checking the
operation of safety shutters, operation of READY warning light, turns on the cooling
system pump and checks for flow rate, turns on the charger and checks if simmer
current is OK – default laser in systems having two lasers is Er:YAG laser. Then
the SYS Controller turns off the cooling system and Charger and waits until the
GUI controller boots.
During booting of GUI controller the screen shows a Windows generated
“Welcome” message.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 33/187


When the booting sequence of GUI controller is completed successfully the screen
shows the “Welcome Screen (Figure 2) with welcome string showing the logotype
of the laser system and installed technologies info.

Figure 2: Welcome screen appearance for SP Dynamis laser system.

The number of Installed technologies items depend on installed handpieces.


The system now requests the Keyswicth to be turned on.
In case the Keyswicth is turn ON the system will request to turn it OFF and then to
turn it On again.
After turning the key switch ON the SYS controller will start the second part of self
test and the progress of the self test will be shown with a bar on the LCD screen.
During the self test certain advisory messages may appear (for example Doorswith
open, Footswitch not connected, etc...). In case if errors were encountered during
self test the error message will be displayed and the system halted.
After completing the self test the system will enter the “Home menu” or Treatment
group selection menu.

5.6. Charger assembly


The Charger is turned on through Relay K5, K6 on the Relay TS 1 board (2-poles
are), which is controlled by the SYS Controller. The Charger assembly is
responsible to charge a capacitor bank.
NOTE
The Models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F are having a 15mF (comprising 6
capacitors each having 10mF) to the desired voltage. From 6 capacitors two
are located in the PFM41 assembly and the remaining 4 capacitors are
located in the additional capacitor bank in the lower compartment of the
system console.
The Model M002-2A is having a capacitor bank of 10 mF (comprising 2 x 10
mF capacitors in series in PFM41 assembly and 2 x 10 mF capacitors in
series in additional capacitor bank in lower part of the laser system).

The voltage value from the Controller to the PFM 41 assembly is fed via optical link
UREFERENCE (OW16) and it is further fed to Charger via optical link CHARGE
(OW20). The Charger also creates a 24VDC supplying voltage for proper operation
of the PFM 41 assembly. The Charger also comprises two Simmer power supplies
both acting as current sources. The simmer power supplies are operating at
different simmer currents. The simmer power supply for Nd:YAG laser is delivering
approx 600mA while the simmer power supply for Er:YAG laser flashlamp is
delivering approx 120mA. The simmer power supplies are used to keep the
selected laser´s flashlamp ionized (simmer current). Both simmer power supplies
are connected with respective flashlamps through PFM41 assembly. The simmer
power supply for Nd:YAG is short connected when Er:YAG laser is selected with
relay K1 on the PFM41 assembly. When the Nd:YAG laser is selected the Er:YAG
simmer power supply is short connected with relay K1 on the PFM41 assembly.
The integral part of the Charger is also the Mains filter B located on the top of the
charger.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 35/187


NOTE
All models share the same Charger with same Mains (EMI) filters on top of
Charger.

The output of the Charger can be separated from the PFM41 assembly by a single
connector, and by one optical link OW20 running from PFM41 assembly.
The 230 VAC to the mains filter B is fed from Relay TS 1 board X2 connector.

5.7. PFM41 assembly with a discharge circuit


NOTE
There are three variants of PFM41 assembly depending on the models:
For Models M021-4AF/3 a PFM41 2S1 1SCR 800V assembly (Code 107885) is
used that allows switching from Er:YAG to Nd:YAG laser and vice-versa via
a Relay K1 on PFM Control Board.
For model of M002-2A the PFM41 2S1 150 1SCR 800V assembly (Code
107886) is used that is hardwired for Er:YAG operation only.
For Models M001-12F the PFM41 2S1 600 1SCR 800V assembly (Code
107884) is used that is hardwired for Nd:YAG operation only.

Please refer to drawings enclosed to this manual.


The PFM 41 Control assembly is operating only when the Charger is turned on and
a 24VDC created in Charger is present.
On the top of the PFM41 assembly there is a discharge circuit (ID 80455 PFM 43-
SES board), for de-energizing the capacitor bank through a chain of resistors after
the system is turned off.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 36/187


An additional capacitor bank is connected with the two storage capacitors in
PFM41 assembly. The additional capacitor bank is located in the front of the lower
housing of each laser system and is completely shielded.
All the other necessary voltages (15Vdc and 5Vdc) for proper operation of the PFM
41 assembly are created internally on-board.
The PFM 41 assembly communicates with the SYS Controller and Charger only
through optical links. The PFM 41 assembly performs the following functions:
 Switches the simmer power supplies to proper flash lamps via a relay K1 (valid
for Models M021-4AF/3). For Models M002-2A and M001-12F the PFM41
assembly is hard-wired for Er:YAG or Nd:YAG laser and has NO relay K1. The
control signal for selection of the flash lamps is sent from the SYS Controller to
the PFM 41 via optical link OW1 in a multiplexed form.
 Senses if the simmer current is established through the selected flash lamp (Er
or Nd) and sends this information to the SYS Controller through the optical link
OW2 also in a multiplexed form.
 Detects the status of the Capacitor bank voltage and sends this information
multiplexed through optical link OW2
 Receives from the SYS Controller via optical link OW16 the reference value of
the voltage to which the capacitor bank is to be charged and resends this
signal to the Charger (optical link UREFERENCE OW20).
 Sends to the controller a signal if the charger is charging the capacitor bank
(OW7)
 Switches On and Off the main discharge through the flash lamp for laser rod
excitation on commands from the SYS Controller (optical link OW 5) via a
powerful IGBT module in the PFM 41 module assembly.
 Receives from the Energy Meter (through optical link OW19) the signal that the
measured laser energy is two (2) times greater then the requested one and
fires the Crowbar circuit through fuse F1 and SCR. In worst case if the IGBT
module is short circuited the fuse F1 blows-up, and disables the flash lamp and
therefore the laser for further operation. In normal situations if 2xenergy is
detected the IGBT module is forced to non-conductive state while the Crowbar
SCR is conducting.

NOTE
If the crowbar fire optical link OW19 is detached from the PFM 41 module
assembly the crowbar protection circuit is activated. Do not remove this
optical link from PFM41 module or from energy meter unless you will be
asked to do that by Fotona service staff.

 Performs the discharging of the capacitor bank through a chain of resistors


each time the charger is turned off (when the 24VDC voltage disappears on
the PFM 41 module assembly) through the Discharge circuit located on the top
of the IGBT switch. In this way the huge capacitor bank is being discharged
and after turning off the laser system it remains in a safe discharged state.
 The Controller is checking the status of the discharge circuit (conducting/non
conducting) via optical link OW2 during each start-up of the system and during
normal operation.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 37/187


5.8. Cooling System assembly
The cooling system is located in the lower part of the housing for all models and it
consists of:
 Cooling liquid tank
 Pump driven by a 24VDC motor
 Water-to-air heat exchanger with 6 24VDC fans
NOTE
The DYNAMIS LINE models have a single heat exchanger with 6 fans in the
lower housing of the laser system
The SPECTRO LINE models are having two small heat exchangers in
parallel (with 4 fans) in lower housing and one additional small heat
exchanger with two fans in upper housing.

 De-ionizing cartridge
 Temperature switch – located in the cooling liquid tank
 Flow sensor

Figure 6: Cooling system for Model M021-4AF/3 (For models M002-2A the Nd:YAG laser is
not built-in in model M001-12F the Er:YAG laser is not built-in)

When the SYS Controller sends a signal for starting the cooling system via the
RELAY TS 1 board, the pump and heat exchanger fans start. The de-ionized water
is driven from the water tank through the heat exchangers through laser modules
(Er:YAG or Nd:YAG or both in series) and through a flow switch and de-ionizing
cartridge (both connected in parallel). A small amount of de-ionized water is flowing
through the de-ionizing cartridge to keep the water always de-ionized and clean.
The flow sensor is generating a frequency proportional to the flow rate. This signal
is sent to the FLOW METER circuitry on the IO DYNAMIS TS board, which
performs the function of determining the flow. The checking of the flow rate starts
with a 5 second delay after turning on the pump to allow for the flow to establish.
Later on the flow is continuously monitored and if it drops below a prescribed value
the SYS Controller immediately stops the laser, turns off the Charger, Cooling
system pump and fans, blocks the system and issues an appropriate message.
The temperature of the cooling liquid is monitored by the SYS Controller through a
thermal switch mounted on the cooling liquid tank. Should the water temperature
exceed the allowed limit the SYS Controller will stop the laser emission disable the
triggering of the laser and issue an advisory message (Over temperature). The
cooling system pump and fans remain to operate. The system will remain in this
state until the cooling liquid temperature does not fall under the trip point of the
temperature switch. The system will then revert to a STBY state.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 38/187


In case of leakage of cooling liquid it will be conveyed through a plastic hose out of
the device.
NOTE
The laser systems were designed to operate properly with ambient
temperature NOT HIGHER than 29ºC. Since water to air heat exchanger is
used, by increasing the ambient temperature the cooling liquid of the laser
will also increase. If the trip point of max allowed cooling liquid temperature
is exceeded and the system may stop laser emission with an advisory
message indicating the overheated coolant.
In such a case do not turn off the system but allow the system to cool down.
It will revert to STBY state after the overheated state message disappears.

5.9. Laser head assembly

5.9.1. Er:YAG Laser module

Er:YAG Laser module (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)


It consists of a highly efficient laser pumping chamber, Er:YAG laser rod, flash
lamp, optical resonator with high reflectivity (HR) and out-coupling (OC) mirror
both mounted in their adjusting mechanisms. The Er:YAG laser pumping chamber
is cooled by de-ionized water in series with the Nd:YAG laser module in model
M021-4Af/3. The pumping chamber is insulated from the resonator base plate with
appropriate insulators with suitable distances and air clearances. The flash lamp is
operating in a simmer current mode and kept ionized for the main discharge
current pulse initiated through IGBT module (located on the PFM 41 assembly).
The main discharge excites the laser rod and as a consequence a laser pulse is
created within the optical resonator. From the OC mirror the laser beam emerges if
both OC and HR mirrors are properly aligned.
The Er:YAG laser module operates at five different pulse durations referred also as
Operation modes and having the following mnemonics in GUI.
MSP (Micro Short Pulse),
SP (Short Pulse),
LP (Long Pulse),
VLP (Very Long Pulse),
XLP (eXtra Long Pulse) and
FOTONA SMOOTH
operation mode.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 40/187


The flashlamp current pulse durations for each Operation mode are as follows:
VSP 175µs,
SP 350µs
LP 600µs
VLP 1000µs
XLP 1500µs
FOTONA SMOOTH 250ms
NOTE
The super long FOTONA SMOOTH pulse consists of an equally spaced
sequence LP (600µs) pulses. The LP pulses are delivered at 20Hz repetition
rate. There are always 6 pulses in a sequence – therefore the max pulse
width is 5 x 50ms + 0.6ms = 250.6ms approx. 250ms).

The laser characteristics (laser output energy vs capacitor bank voltage) are
different for each Operation mode.
The laser Input/Output characteristics parameters for each Operating mode are
described by a group of four numbers which are accessible through GUI with
Settings/Service Er / I/O Laser setup
U1 U2 E1 E2
U1 is a voltage on capacitor bank that will for a corresponding Operation mode
realize laser output energy E1.
U2 is a voltage on capacitor bank that will for a corresponding Operation mode
realize laser output energy E2.
E1 is selected to be approx. the smallest energy of the laser for the selected
Operation mode
E2 is selected to be approx. the highest energy of the laser for selected Operation
mode.
NOTE
The FOTONA SMOOTH mode (since it operates with LP laser pulses) utilizes
the characteristics of the laser for LP Operation mode.

The GUI Controller calculates the parameters A and B (linear approximation


characteristics) of the laser
E laser = A + B*U
Where
B= (E2 – E1) / (U2 – U1)
and
A = E2 – B*U2
These values are then used for determining the starting voltage for the first laser
pulse from the requested energy setting for selected Operation mode in GUI.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 41/187


NOTE
The U1 and U2, E1 and E2 parameters can be accessed and edited in the
service mode (supported by GUI) of operation of the system for each
Operating mode of Er:YAG laser operation.

When the laser system is to be operated at a selected energy (Eset) with a


selected hand piece the GUI Controller first calculates the value of the energy of
the laser Elaser (taking in account the transmission of the selected hand piece)
and then calculates the voltage to which the capacitor bank is to be charged.
Therefore:
Elaser = Eset / Tx
x stands for the type of the hand piece.
The transmission parameters Tx for each hand piece for the Er:YAG laser are
accessible in GUI Settings/ Handpiece Er menu.
The starting voltage for the first pulse is then calculated as:
Ustart = (Elaser – A)/B
With this starting voltage the energy regulation loop is starting the calibration
sequence of the laser. After the calibration is completed (the laser energy is close
to the desired energy) the shutter opens and the system is placed in a ready state.
After pressing the foot switch the laser will all the time run in the energy regulation
loop, which adjusts the capacitor bank voltage to a value, which will always deliver
the selected energy to the treatment site.

5.9.2. Nd:YAG Laser Module (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F)

The Nd:YAG laser module consists of a highly efficient laser pumping chamber,
Nd:YAG laser rod, flash lamp, optical resonator with high reflectivity (HR) and out-
coupling (OC) mirror both mounted in their adjusting mechanisms. The Nd:YAG
laser pumping chamber is cooled by de-ionized water (it is cooled in series with the
Er:YAG laser module in model M021-4AF/3 ). The pumping chamber is insulated
from the resonator base plate with appropriate insulators with suitable creepage
distances and air clearances. The flash lamp is operating in a simmer current
mode and kept ionized for the main discharge current pulse initiated through an
IGBT module (located on the PFM 41 assembly). The main discharge excites the
laser rod and as a consequence a laser pulse is created within the optical
resonator. From the OC mirror the laser beam emerges if both OC and HR mirrors
are properly aligned.
The Nd:YAG laser operates in a more complex manner.
The Nd:YAG laser operates in FRAC3, VERSA, PIANO and QCW operating
modes.
FRAC 3 operating mode
In FRAC3 operating mode the laser pulse width can be selected between 0.1 and
1.6ms.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 42/187


The flashlamp current pulse durations for pulse width from 0.1 to 1.6 ms are:
 for 0.1ms laser pulse – 125us
 for 0.3ms laser pulse – 300us
 for 0.6ms laser pulse – 600us
 for 1ms laser pulse – 1000us
 for 1.6ms laser pulse – 1600us.

VERSA operating mode


In VERSA operating mode the laser pulse width can be selected between 5 and
50ms.
 For 5ms macro-pulse duration, two pulses at 2ms separated by 1ms are
generated
 For macro-pulse pulse width from 10 to 50ms the number of 2ms pulses in
burst is 4. The separation between the pulses depend on the pulse width
selected so that the starting edge of the first pulse and the leading edge of the
last pulse is establishing the nominal macro pulse width. This is represented
bellow:

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 43/187


Each laser pulse energy is calculated from the selected spot size and Fluency.
QCW operating mode
In QCW operating mode the laser pulse width can be selected from 0.1 to 2ms.
The flashlamp current pulse durations for pulse widths from 0.1 to 2ms are:
 for 0.1ms laser pulses – 125us
 for 0.3ms laser pulses – 300us
 for 0.6ms laser pulses – 600us
 for 1ms laser pulses – 1000us
 for 2ms laser pulses – 2000us
PIANO operating mode
The Piano operating mode generates a train of pulses at 30Hz frequency and
pulse width of each pulse within the train of 0.6ms. The PIANO pulse duration and
cumulative fluency is adjustable in the GUI.
The characteristics of Nd:YAG laser (laser energy and capacitor bank voltage) for
each pulse width for lowest and highest energies are accessible in GUI
Settings/Service Nd/I/O laser setup with parameters U1, U2, E1 and E2.
U1 is a voltage on capacitor bank for which the laser with will give and energy of
Eref1 at the exit of fiber coupling assembly for the corresponding pulse width.
U2 is a voltage on capacitor bank for which the laser with will give and energy of
E2 at the exit of fiber coupling assembly for the corresponding pulse width.
E1 is selected to be approx. the smallest energy of the laser for the selected pulse
width.
E2 is selected to be approx. the highest energy of the laser for selected pulse
width.
Each characteristics is representing the laser energy in terms of capacitor bank
voltage
E laser = A + B*U
Where coefficients A and B are:
B= (E2 – E1) / (U2 – U1)
and
A = E2 – B*U2
A and B coefficients are therefore calculated from the U1, U2 and E1 and E2.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 44/187


These A in B coefficients are then used for determining the starting voltage for the
first laser pulse from the requested energy.
NOTE
The U1 and U2, E1 and E2 parameters can be accessed and edited in the
Settings/Service Nd/ I/O Laser setup service program.

NOTE
When the laser system is to be operated in FRAC3 or VERSA operation
mode at a selected Fluency, spot size and repetition rate the GUI SW first
calculates the value of the energy per pulse of the laser corresponding to
the selected fluency and spot size (Eset) then it calculates the laser energy
needed – E laser (taking in account the transmission of the selected beam
delivery and handpiece) and then from the characteristics of the laser
calculates the voltage to which the capacitor bank is to be charged for the
first pulse in calibration.

E laser= E set / Ty
Ty stands for the transmission of the beam delivery together with the transmission
of the hand piece (Scanner) for the selected spot size.
When the laser system is to be operated in QCW operation mode at a selected
Power, frequency and bare fiber the computer first calculates the value of the
energy per pulse of the laser corresponding to the selected power (Pset) and
frequency (f) then it calculates the laser energy needed - Elaser (taking in account
the transmission of the selected beam delivery – i.e. fiber) and then from the
characteristics of the laser calculates the voltage to which the capacitor bank is to
be charged for the first pulse in calibration.
E laser= (Pset / f ) / Tf
Tf stands for the transmission of the selected fiber beam delivery.
The values of the transmission for each spot size of Nd:YAG handpieces are
accessible and can be edited in Settings/Service Nd/ Add-remove handnpiece
service SW.
For Piano operation mode the energy per laser pulse E laser is calculated from
selected spot size cumulative fluency, PIANO pulse duration, and fixed frequency
of pulses within PIANO pulse of 30 Hz.
From calculated Elaser the starting value of Ubank is calculated from the
characteristics of the laser for selected pulse width, as
Ustart = (Elaser – A)/B
With this starting voltage the energy regulation loop is starting the calibration
sequence of the Nd:YAG laser. After the calibration is completed (the laser energy
is close to the desired energy) the shutter opens and the system is placed in a
ready state. After pressing the footswitch the laser will all the time run in the energy
regulation loop, which adjusts the capacitor bank voltage to a value, which will
always deliver the selected energy to the treatment site.

Figure 9: Laser head assembly with both Er:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers.

5.9.3. Simmer Trigger board

There are three variants of simmer trigger boards. Each is used for distinct model.
 Simmer Trigger 5 - assy. Code 97618 - used in Models M021-4AF/3
 Simmer Trigger 5/2 - assy. Code 97620 - used in Models M001-12F
 Simmer Trigger 5/1 - assy. Code 97619 - used in Model M002-2A
NOTE
All three simmer trigger boards use the same PCB but differ in number and
position of trigger transformers.

Please refer to the drawings of these assemblies in section 10 of this Technical file.
The Simmer trigger board is located on the top of the Er:YAG and Nd:YAG laser
module. Its function is to create high voltage (12kV) short pulses via a trigger
transformer to ionize the Xenon gas within the selected lasers flashlamp. Each
laser has separate trigger transformer.
The selected flash lamp ionized gas impedance drops during the trigger pulse
allowing the external Simmer power supply to draw a small current (called simmer
current) through the flash lamp. The simmer operation of the flash lamp allows
accurate flash lamp firing with high rep rates.
Since the simmer currents for Er:YAG laser flashlamp and Nd:YAG laser flashlamp
are different there are two separate simmer power supplies in the Charger
assembly.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 46/187


NOTE
For models M021-4AF/3 switching the correct simmer power supply to the
corresponding flashlamp a K1 relay located on the PFM41 assembly is
provided.
In models M002-2A and M001-12F the PFM 41 assembly is not utilizing K1
Relay and the simmer supply is hard-wired for each single laser.

For Models M021-4AF/3 when the Er:YAG laser flashlamp is simmer operated the
Nd:YAG simmer power supply output is short connected by the K1 relay on PFM41
assembly, and vice versa.
In model M002-2A the Nd:YAG simmer power supply is short connected on the
PFM41 assembly.
In models M001-12F the Er:YAG simmer power supply is short connected on
PFM41 assembly.
The negative terminal of each trigger transformer secondary winding is connected
to both flash lamps cathode. The positive terminal of each trigger transformer is
connected to respective laser’s pumping chamber metal end plates. This allows for
efficient external triggering of both flash lamps.
When the Controller turns on the Charger the simmer power supply starts to
develop approx. 800 V on the selected flashlamp terminals. The simmer trigger
board is also supplied by the simmer power supply and starts to trigger the
flashlamp through the trigger transformer. When the flash lamp ionizes the simmer
current establishes and the simmer power supply accommodates the voltage on
the flash lamp to keep the simmer current through the flash lamp to a preset
constant value (the simmer power supply acts as a constant current source). When
the simmer current establishes the simmer trigger board disables the triggering of
the trigger transformer.
The open circuit voltage on the flash lamp terminals (for both laser’s flashlamps)
before establishing the simmer current is approx 800 VDC.
The simmer current for Er:YAG laser is approx 250mA and the flash lamp voltage
during simmer operation is approx. 90 – 110 VDC.
The simmer current for Nd:YAG laser flashlamp is approx 600mA and the
flashlamp voltage during simmer operation is also approx 90 to 110 VDC.
The whole simmer trigger board is electrically on a floating potential together with
the PFM41 assembly.

5.9.4. Laser beam sampling and combining optics

Please refer to optical path diagrams for each model n Section 8.5 of this Service
manual.
There are two sets of beam sampling and combining optics – one for each laser.
The function of the beam sampling and combining optics is to supply a sample of
the treatment laser beam to two separate energy meters and to combine the
aiming beam with the treatment beam. This is accomplished by two optical
components for each laser. They are accurately fixed to the laser head base plate.
For Nd:YAG laser two Beam Combiners (BCNd) are used having a small
reflectance and high transmittance for the treatment laser wavelength and high
reflectance for 650nm aiming beam. The reflected treatment laser beam from the
first Beam Combiner (closer to Nd:YAG laser OC mirror) falls on Feedback energy
meter sensor after being diffused. The second Beam Combiner (BCNd) reflects a
small amount of laser energy to the Nd:YAG Monitor energy meter and combines
the aiming beam laser (Diode Laser) with the treatment laser beam before they
enter the fiber coupling assembly.
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 47/187
For Er:YAG laser also two Beam Combiners (BCEr) are used having a small
reflectance and high transmittance for the treatment laser wavelength and high
reflectance for 650nm aiming beam. The reflected beam from the first Bea
Combiner plate is falling on the Er:YAG Feedback energy meter sensor after being
diffused. The second Beam Combiner reflects a small amount of laser energy to
the Er:YAG Monitor energy meter and combines the aiming beam laser (Diode
Laser) with the treatment laser beam before they enter the articulated arm.
In Model M021-4AF/3 both the Nd:YAG and Er:YAG beam sampling optics are
used. In Model M002-2A only the Er:YAG while in Model M001-12F only the
Nd:YAG beam sampling optics is utilized.

5.9.5. Energy meter assembly

Please refer to drawing ENERGYMETER 6 assembly and ENERGYMETER 6 PCB


assembly attached to this manual.
Please note that there are three variants of Energymeter assembly all of them are
using the same printed circuit board Code 84731:
 Energymeter 6 H assy Code 96969 – for models M021-4AF/3 (it has two
pyroeletric detectors and 4 InGaAs detectors and a heater element assembly
for preventing water condenstation on Er:YAG beam sampler optics). This
energymeter includes a TV Heater assembly (Code 96655) for preheating
the diffuser and attenuation optics on energymeter to fixed temperature and
operates for a fixed time each time the laser system main switch is turend on.
The heater assembly is supplied with 24Vdc from 80168 Head CTRL 4 PCB
board through connector X6.
 Energymeter 6/1 assy Code 85905 – for model M001-12F (it has only 4
InGaAs detectors for Nd:YAG laser and NO pyroelectric detectors for Er:YAG).
This enerhymeter does not cotain a heater assembly.
 Energymeter 6/2 H assy Code 96970 – for model M002-2A (it has only two
pyrolectric detectors for Er:YAG laser and a heater element assembly for
preventing water condenstation on Er:YAG beam sampler optics and NO
InGaAs detectors for Nd:YAG). This energymeter includes a TV Heater
assembly (Code 96655) for preheating the diffuser and attenuation optics on
energymeter to fixed temperature and operates for a fixed time each time the
laser system main switch is turend on. The heater assembly is supplied with
24Vdc from 80168 Head CTRL 4 PCB board through connector X6.
The Energy meter assembly is placed on spacers in stable position above the laser
beam sampling optics. It comprises two independent energy meters for Er:YAG
laser and 4 independent energymeters for Nd:YAG laser.
 The energymeters for laser systems that are having Er:YAG laser (models
M021-4AF/3 and model M002-2A) also include an additional heater assembly.
Each time the laser system is turned on this heater assembly heats the the
metal reflector, diffuser and attenuator part of the energymeter for a fixed time
of approx. 2.5 minutes to eliminate any water condense which may influence
the accuracy of Er:YAG laser energy measurement in cases when the laser
system is moved from colder ambient to warmer one with different relative
humidity. The Heater assembly (Code 96655) comprises two high power
resistors that are glued to the energymeter with high temperature and heat
conductive adhesive. The printed circuit board of the heater is soldered to both
resitors (heaters). The heater assembly is supplied with 24Vdc from 80168
Head CTRL 4 PCB through connector X6. Durin the heating period a red LED
diode (H3) is shining. After termination of prescribed heating time (approx. 3 to
4 minutes) the red LED diode turns off. The Green LED (H1) on heater
assmbyl indicates the presence of 24Vdc on board. With S1 switch on heater
board the heationg sequence can be repeated.
In Er:YAG laser both the Monitor and Feedback energymeters are splitted in two
channels for LOW and High range energy measurements.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 48/187


The energy sensors for Er:YAG laser are pyroelectric detectors operating in
integrating mode for both Feedback and Monitor energymeter.
 Therefore there are two channels for Feedback (ErFLO and ErFHI) and two
channels for Monitor (ErMLO and ErMHI) energymeter.
 The ErFLO and ErMLO energymeter channels are used for measuring LOW
energies from 20mJ up to 450mJ. While the ErFHI and ErMHI are used for
energies from 300mJ to 4500mJ.
For Nd:YAG laser InGaAs detectors are used as energy sensors. The signal from
each detector is electronically integrated to get the energy of each laser pulse.
 For measuring energies of Nd:YAG laser up to 5J a pair of Feedback FNd_LO
and Monitor MNd_LO energymeters are used.
 For measuring energies of Nd:YAG laser from 5J up to 50J a pair of Feedback
FNd_HI and Monitor MNd_LO energymeters are used.

NOTE
The Energymeters for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A are having a heater
element assembly that is supplied from Head CTRL 4 board with 24Vdc.

The energy meter is a complex analog and digital board which communicates with
the Controller and PFM41 assembly only through optical links.
The Energy meter assembly is supplied with 24VDC from the auxiliary power
supply when the main circuit breaker is turned on.
The functions of the energy meter are:
 To receive from the SYS Controller data which identifies which laser is
selected (Er or Nd)
 To receive from the SYS Controller the desired selected energy for selected
laser’s pulse in a digital form via optical link OW17 (Data_In).
NOTE
The value of the energy of the laser pulse is determined by the Controller
during calibration procedure after the READY button has been pressed.

 To create analog value of the desired energy level via a D/A converter used for
comparing the analog level of laser pulse energy with the desired one.
 To receive a RESET SYNCHRONIZATION pulse from the flash lamp light
pulse detector and from the SYS Controller. The flashlamp pulse detector
starts the energy measurement sequence. The SYS Controller checks if the
flash pulse has happened by comparison of the signal from the Controller and
from the flash pulse light detector. The light pulse detector is a wide-angle of
view optical detector located on the energy meter.
NOTE
The pick-up of the flash lamp light pulse is performed for both flashlamps
with a single detector. During servicing procedures do not cover or screen
the aperture of this flashpulse detector during laser firing. The system will
detect a missing flashpulse.

 To create a Fire_SCR signal (through an optical link - OW19) if the laser pulse
energy (corresponding analog signal level) from any of the two independent

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 49/187


energy meters is 2 times greater then the requested one from the D/A
converter. This function is hardwired.
NOTE
If the optical link OW19 (Fire_SCR) is pulled out from its receptacle on the
Energy meter the Crowbar circuit will be activated (equivalent to a situation
when the Energy meter detects a 2 times greater energy then requested).
The jumper J1 on the PMF41 assembly must be in position 1-2.

 To amplify the signals from each energy sensor (which is proportional to laser
pulse energy) and to detect the peak value of this signals. During factory
calibration of the energy meters or during service calibration the gain of this
amplifiers can be trimmed to calibrate the energy meter sensitivity
 To convert this signals via a A/D converter in a digital form
 To send this signals via optical link Data_Out (OW15) for further processing in
the SYS Controller
 To check if both the D/A and A/D converters function properly and to send this
information through OW13 back to the SYS Controller.
 To check if the supplying voltages for each energy meter are within prescribed
values.
The SYS Controller reads the energy of laser pulse from both energy meters
(Feedback and Monitor).
The Nd:YAG part of the energy meter measures each micro-pulse energy and
sends it to the SYS Controller, where the SYS Controller after completing the
macro-pulse, adds-up the contribution of each micro-pulse energy and forms the
total macro-pulse energy. This sum energy is used for running the energy
regulation loop of the laser.

5.9.6. Head Control and safety shutter assembly

Please refer to drawings HEAD CTRL4 assembly and schematics attached to this
manual.
There are three variants of Head CTRL4 and safety shutter assembly used for
each model of Dynamis line.
 Head CTRL4 and Shutter assembly for models M021-4AF/3 – Code: 80670
 Head CTRL4 and Shutter assembly for model M002-2A – Code: 85902
 Head CTRL4 and Shutter assembly for models M001-12F – Code: 85906
They all have the same PCB (Code 80168) but differ only in which actuator and
absorber is built-in (For Er:YAG only, Nd:YAG only or for both lasers).

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 50/187


NOTE
Please note that the new version of Head CTRL 4 PCB (Code 80168) has an
additional connector X6 for attaching the heater element assembly of
Energymeter. Through this connector a 24Vdc is suuplied to heater element
of Energymeter 6 H assembly Code 96969) and Energy meter 6/2 H assy
Code 96970. Older versions of Head CTRL 4 PCB do not have this
connector.
If Energymeter 6 H assembly Code 96969) and Energy meter 6/2 H assy
Code 96970 is to be used with old version of Head CTRL 4 PCB (Code
80168) without X6 connector you can either oreder a new version of Head
CTRL4 assembly or do not attche the heater element of Energymeter to the
Head CTRL 4 assembly. In latter case the energymeter will work OK
provided that there will be no water condense on Er:YAG sampling optics.
Water condense is very unlikely to appear if the laser system is used in
normal office environment.It may appear if the laser system was kept in
cold enviriinment and moved to a place at higher temperature with high
realative humidity.

The Head Control 4 and safety shutter assembly is located under the Energy
meter. The circuit is supplied with 24VDC from auxiliary power supply (Connector
X3).
The Head Control 4 is mounted together with the safety shutters to the laser head
base plate. It comprises two safety shutters – one for each laser for models M021-
4AF/3 (one for Nd:YAG for models M001-12F, and one for Er:YAG for model
M002-2A). Each shutter is actuated by a rotary actuator and has a static magnet
rod on its flag. Each shutters position is detected by Hall sensors on the Head
CTRL4 board. The circuit is communicating with the SYS Controller via two optical
links OW3 and OW4.
The Head CTRL 4 and safety shutter assembly functions are:
 To receive commands from the SYS Controller for opening or closing the
respective shutter via optical link OW3
 To receive commands for diode laser aiming beam power level via optical link
OW3
 To supply power and drive the diode laser with PWM (pulse width modulated)
signal with eight hardwired average power levels via. The diode laser is
attached to HEAD CTRL 4 assembly via connector X4
 To sense the position of each shutter and to send this information via optical
link OW4 to the SYS Controller. NOTE: during operation of a selected laser the
shutter status for the second laser is also monitored.
 To sense if the fiber optic beam delivery is attached to the beam coupling
assembly (Connector X2). If it is not the operation of the system is halted until
the fiber optic beam delivery is not attached properly to the system.
 To supply 24Vdc to Heater assembly through connector X6 on 80168 Head
CTRL 4 PCB for systems having an Er:YAG laser.

5.9.7.Nd:YAG fiber coupling assembly (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and models
M001-12F)

The fiber coupling assembly is located in the front part of the laser head. It is fixed
to the articulated arm holder in case of models M021-4AF/3 or via a dedicated
holder fixed to laser head baseplate in Models M001-12F. It comprises a holder,
lens within an adjustable positioning system, an SMA905 receptacle and a micro-
switch used for detecting the attachment of the fiber beam delivery system. The
micro-switch is connected to the HEAD CTRL 4 assembly via a two pin cable and a
connector to. The lens is coupling the laser beam into the attached fiber-optic
beam delivery. Two adjustment screws (X and Y) are facilitating positioning of the
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 51/187
lens relative to the proximal fiber optic beam delivery end-face center. The
positioning screws are accessible from the front panel. The screw for adjusting the
lens Y position located vertically to the fiber receptacle, while the screw for
adjusting the X position to the left of the receptacle (looking from the front panel).
A third, fixing screw id used to lock the position of X and Y adjustment.

5.9.8. Er:YAG beam coupling optics (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and model
M002-2A)

The Er:YAG beam coupling assembly is located in front part of the laser head. It is
built in the articulated arm holder. The beam coupling is performed by two flat
mirrors – the Near field mirror and Far field mirror in a beam steering assembly.
Both are placed on their respective adjusting mechanisms. The Near field mirror
is the one, which is closer to the laser. On the top of the articulated arm holder
there is a beam transforming lens. By adjusting the Near and Far field mirrors
central propagation of both the treatment and aiming beam is achieved through the
articulated arm.

5.9.9. Aiming (diode) laser assembly

The aiming beam laser assembly is located next to the Er:YAG laser module. It is
mounted in its adjusting mechanism used for aligning the aiming beam to coincide
with the Er:YAG laser beam in models M021-4AF/3 and model M002-2A. For
models M001-12F and models M021-4AF/3 the aiming laser is alignment to
coincide with Nd:YAG laser beam is performed by aligning the beam bender mirror
for 650nm.
NOTE
In case of models M021-4AF/3 and model M002-2A the adjusting mechanism
of the aiming laser must be used for adjusting the coincidence of aiming
beam with the Er:YAG laser beam ONLY!
In case of models M001-12F (where there is NO Er:YAG laser) the adjusting
mechanism of the aiming laser must be used for adjusting the coincidence
of aiming beam with the Nd:YAG laser beam!

In models M021-4AF/3 the aiming beam is combined with the Er:YAG treatment
beam via a 50%/50% beam splitter for 650nm and a beam combiner BCEr (in
model M002-2A Dynamis the 50%/50% beam splitter is replaced with total
reflector). In this way the optical axis of the Er:YAG treatment and aiming beam
can be brought to be the same. The aiming beam is also coupled via the beam
coupling assembly into the articulated arm and through it to different hand pieces.
At the hand piece exit the aiming beam position marks the point to which the
Er:YAG treatment beam will hit the target when the footswitch will be depressed.
The aiming beam is combined with the Nd:YAG treatment beam via a 50%/50%
beam splitter for 650nm and an adjustable beam bender fro 650 nm and a beam
combiner BCNd. By adjusting the beam bender, the aiming beam can be centered
through the fiber coupling assembly on the proximal end-face of the fiber optic
beam delivery. On the distal end of the fiber-optic beam delivery a hand piece is
attached where the aiming beam position marks the point to which the Nd:YAG
treatment beam will hit the target when the footswitch will be depressed.
In case of models M001-12F the aiming beam is combined with the Nd:YAG
treatment beam via a total reflector at 650nm. By adjusting the aiming beam laser it
can be centered through the fiber coupling assembly on the proximal end-face of
the fiber optic beam delivery.
The Diode laser assembly is supplied and controlled from the HEAD CTRL 4
assembly (Connector X4).
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 52/187
The aiming beam laser is a high temperature diode laser source operating in a
PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) mode. Eight hardwired power levels can be
selected via the HEAD CTRL 4 board received from the SYS Controller through
optical link OW3.

5.10. Nd:YAG laser fiber-optic beam deliveries (Valid for models M021-
4AF/3 and models M001-12F)
In VERSA, FRAC3 and PIANO operating modes the Nd:YAG laser uses a flexible
jumper fiber beam delivery with 945µm fiber core size. The jumper fiber beam
delivery is having high power SMA905 connectors on each side. The jumper fiber
numerical aperture is NA=0.22.
The proximal side of jumper fiber with the SMA connector is attached to the fiber
beam coupling assembly receptacle on the laser system front panel. On the distal
side of the beam delivery the different hand pieces with adjustable spot sizes
ranging from 2 to 20 mm or S11 Nd:YAG scanner can be attached with SMA
connectors.
For operating the S11 scanner at 2mm spot size an additional jumper fiber with

7.8. Editing of laser characteristics and handpiece transmissions

7.8.1. For Nd:YAG laser (valid for models M021-4AF/3 and models M001-12F)

The parameters Nd:YAG lasers are:


 Input/Output (I/O) characteristics for each pulsewidth
 Transmission parameters for each handpiece.

7.8.1.1. Laser I/O parameters setting for FRAC3, VERSA and QCW operation mode
 Determine the Pulse width and spot size which needed a lot of calibration
shots (Operation mode is not important) at low fluences
 In settings menu select Nd:YAG Service and then Laser I/O
 Select the puslewidth and spot size for which the laser needed too long time
for calibration
 Set the Frequency to 1Hz.
 Set the Fluence level to lowest selectable.
 Go in calibration (READY state)
 Then press the footswitch and make 10 to 20 shots. The operating voltage and
measured energy will be displayed on the screen (see Figure for Er:YAG Laser
I/O setup screen above)
 Set the U1 voltage to the operating voltage value
 Set the E1 energy to the measured and displayed value
 Touch the confirmation button – this will save the new U1 and E1
parameters.
 Go in READY state and observe the number of calibration shots. This will be
now reduced to several shots only.

If the system slowly calibrates at highest fluences for certain pulse width, then
repeat the same procedure as already described above except that the highest

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 120/187


fluences are to be selected and the U2 and E2 values are to be changed to match
the operating voltage and measured energy.
NOTE
The above mentioned editing of Nd:YAG laser characteristics can be used
to optimize the response of the Nd:YAG laser at all or only certain pulse
width.

7.8.1.2. Laser I/O parameters setting for PIANO operation mode


The PIANO operation mode operates with a train of 0.6 ms pulses at fixed
freuquency of 30Hz.
If the laser calibration needs too many shots then the same procedure has to be
used as already described for FRAC3, VERSA and QCW operation mode except
that the pulse width in Laser I/O Settings screen has to be set to 0.6 ms. In other
words: If the calibration is optimized for a pulsewidth of 0.6 ms it will be also
optimized for PIANO operation mode.

WARNING
Do not edit any system parameters until you completely understand the
meaning of each parameter, which can be edited. Serious damage to the
system may ensue.
Parameters editing should be used only if fotona service department
request the change of certain parameters.

7.8.1.3. Nd:YAG handpiece transmission change (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F)
(In reality this will be rarely necessary)
 Determine the handpiece for which the transmission has to be changed
 In Settings menu select Nd:YAG Service and type in the Service Code
 Touch the back button
 In Settings menu select Nd:YAG Handpieces.
 The Add/remove handpieces menu opens:

Figure 40: Add/remove handpieces screen


 Touch the button that corresponds to the handpiece for which the transmission
is to be changed.
 The Set Transmission screen will open:

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 121/187

 Change the transmission for selected handpiece by corresponding adjustment
buttons. The transmission is displayed in units of %. The steps for transmission
change are 1%.
 Touch the confirmation (save) button – the new changed value of selected
handpiece will be saved.
 Leave the screen with BACK button.
 Return to the Treatment groups selection menu by successively touching the
BACK key in appropriate screen.
NOTE
Transmission chage as described above in Settings – Handpiece Nd or
Handpiece Er menu can be performed only if the Er:YAG Service or Nd:YAG
Service menu was entered already before and if the laser system was not
turned off with the main switch.

7.8.2. For Er:YAG laser (Valid for Models M021-4AF/3 Dynamis and M002-2A
Dynamis)

The parameters for Er:YAG lasers are:


 Input/Output (I/O) characteristics for each operation mode
 Transmission parameters for each handpiece.

7.8.2.1. Editing of Er:YAG laser I/O characteristics


In cases when the Er:YAG laser calibrates for a too long time, by editing the laser
parameters the calibration can be speeded up. This is usually needed due to aging
of the flash lamp.
 Determine the Operation mode which needs a lot of calibration shots
 In settings menu select Er:YAG Service and then Laser I/O ( see section
4.3.6)
 Select the operation mode for which the laser needed too long time for
calibration
 Set the Frequency to 2Hz
 Set the ENERGY level to lowest selectable.
 Go in calibration (READY state)
 Then press the footswitch and make 10 to 20 shots. The Operating voltage and
measured energy will be displayed on the Laser I/O settings screen (already
shown above)
 Set the U1 voltage to the operating voltage value
 Set the E1 energy to the measured and displayed value

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 122/187


 Touch the confirmation button – this will save the new U1 and E1
parameters.
 Go in READY state and observe the number of calibration shots. It should be
reduced to several shots only.
If the system slowly calibrates at highest energies for certain operation mode, then
repeat the same procedure as already described above except that the highest
energies are to be selected and the U2 and E2 values are to be changed to match
the operating voltage and measured energy.
NOTE
The above mentioned editing of Er:YAG laser characteristics can be used to
optimize the response of the Er:YAG laser at all or only certain Operation
mode.

NOTE
The FOTONA SMOOTH operation mode is operating with a train of LP
Operation mode pulses. In case of too long calibration in FOTONA SMOOTH
operation mode the same procedure described above should be used but
with operation mode set to LP in Laser I/O Settings screen. Or in other
words: if the calibration is optimized for LP Operation mode than it will be
also optimized for FOTONA SMOOTH operation mode.

7.8.2.2. Er:YAG handpiece transmission change (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)
(In reality this will be rarely necessary.)
 Determine the handpiece for which the transmission has to be changed
 In Settings menu select Er:YAG Handpieces
 The Er:YAG handpiece menu opens

Figure 42: Add/remove handpieces screen

Er:YAG handpieces menu can be performed only if the Er:YAG Service or
Nd:YAG Service menu was entered already before and if the laser system
was not turned off with the main switch.

NOTE
For GUI SW versions 27 and higher for Models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A if
SW options installed in laser system contains a G-Runner Gynecology
treatment group for Er:YAG laser, additional “handpieces” (actually
adapters) that can be attached to Model G22 (G-Runner) Scanner, will
appear in handpiece screen. The additional “handpieces” are: Top Pixel,
Direct Pixel, Top Full, Continual Full and Circular Full. Each adapter is
having its transmission in order to compensate for losses in transmitted
Er:YAG laser pulse energy to treatment site.

7.9. Enabling and disabling the info ready screen in GUI

8. SAFETY MEASURMENTS
After repair it is essential that system is checked for safety. Leakage currents,
protective earth impedance and insulation resistance should be tested to confirm
that system maintains adequate protection against electric shock. Test methods
according to IEC62353 2nd edition should be used. There are specialized
measuring devices on the market, which can be used for measurement of earth
leakage current. Some of them are also guiding the service personnel through the
complete procedure. For such testing devices corresponding testing procedure
should be found in specific testing device user or operator manual.

8.1. Medical device Class I, Type B leakage current measurement


The Dynamis Spectro laser systems are Class I, Type B medical devices. Class I
means that part of protection from electric shock is provided from protectively
earthed metal enclosure. Type B corresponds to type of Applied Part. Applied part
is part of equipment that comes in physical contact with the patient in normal use.
Type B denotes applied part that is not intended for direct cardiac application or
delivering of electrical energy or electrophysiological signal to the patient. So Type
B applied part might have conductive connection to Protective Earth.

IEC62353 2nd edition specifies 2 types of leakage current:

Equipment leakage current flowing from the mains part through or across
the insulation into the protective earth conductor.

Measurement of equipment leakage current shall be performed with medical


equipment separated from mains and according to figure xx. Main switch on the
rear side of Dynamis Spectro laser systems shall be closed during measurement
as in operational condition. The equipment leakage current is measured in both
states of SW1.

Figure: Leakage current measuring circuit

Allowable limits according to IEC62353 2nd edition, Table E.2 for equipment
leakage current is 5mA in normal condition and 10mA in single fault condition.

Touch leakage current flowing from the enclosure or from parts thereof, excluding
patient connections, accessible to any operator or patient in normal use, through
an external path other than the protective earth conductor, to earth or to another
part of the enclosure.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 126/187


Measurement for the touch leakage current shall be performed with ME Equipment
connected to mains and according to figure yy. Main switch on the rear side of
Dynamis Spectro laser systems shall be closed during measurement as in
operational condition. The touch leakage current is measured in all states of SW1
and SW2.

Figure: Touch current measurment circuit

8.2. Medical device class I Protective earth impedance measurement


Protective earth impedance should be checked between potential equalization
terminal on the rear side of Dynamis Sypectro laser systems and protective earth
contact on mains plug.

Measured protective earth impedance should be less than 0.3 Ohm.

8.3. Medical device class I Insulation resistance measurement


The measurement of insulation resistance shall be considered, in addition to the
leakage current measurement, if there is any doubt about the insulation of the
equipment. Examples of cases where insulation might be in doubt include:
 If a residual current device has tripped several times;
 If liquid has been spilled over the equipment and therefore creepage
distances are in doubt;
 If there are certain components or equipment where the insulation
characteristic can change with temperature, e.g. heating elements.
Measuring methods according to IEC62353 2nd edition should be used and
measuring devices. The equipment is disconnected from SUPPLY MAINS, the
main switch on the rear side of the Dynamis Spectro laser system should be in
closed position (turned ON) during measurement and the equipment insulation
resistance measured according to figure in this manual.

Figure: Insulation resistance measuring circuit


94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 127/187
Measured insulation resistance should be more than 2 Mohm.

WARNING:
This insulation resistance measurement will measure the insulation
resistance of complete device but without the Charger assembly (together
with mains filter mounted on the Charger).
Measurement of Charger assemlby insulatuon resitance should be
performed on Charger assembly separately each time affter removal and
before it is being replaced. The measuring circuit for insulation resitance
measurements is the same as for the the medical equipment.

9. ADJUSTMENT/ALIGNMENT/CALIBRATION PROCEDURES

9.1. Alignment procedure for the Nd:YAG fiber coupler (Valid for
models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F )
The following procedure assumes that the Nd:YAG laser is in alignment
The fiber coupler assembly needs realignment:
 If the fiber optic beam delivery SMA connector fiber end-face is getting
damaged in normal use,
 After each realignment of the laser resonator (first check the alignment and
then perform the alignment procedure if it is necessary).
An old already used or damaged fiber or fiber beam delivery with SMA 905
connector or a MOCK fiber can be used for performing or checking the alignment.
Additionally a water resistant marker ink (green), a magnifier or hand held
microscope, as well as a suitable Allan key (hexagonal) is used as tools for
alignment.
The specified performance of the Fotona Nd:YAG laser on Models M021-4AF/3
and M001-12F can be achieved only if the Nd:YAG beam is perfectly aligned with
the fiber coupler assembly on the center of the fiber beam delivery end-face. The
alignment is performed by adjusting the fiber coupler lens in X and Y direction. For
this purposes two adjustment screws are available on the fiber coupler assembly.
The adjusting screws are accessible from the front panel after removal of the black
rubber feed-through.

9.1.1. The procedure for checking the alignment

Turn on the system and enter the Settings – Service Nd – Fiber couple adjustment
service screen (See section 4.3.4.)
 Select 250V
 Insert and fix an already used or damaged or MOCK fiber with SMA905
connector, which is painted with green water resistant marker, into the systems
fiber receptacle.
 Go in READY state
 Make a single shot
 Remove the fiber and with a microscope or magnifier convince yourself that the
spot of the laser beam on the green waterproof ink is visible. If it is not increase
the voltage for 10 to 20 V and repeat the procedure.

CAUTION
Do not use excessive energies for aligning the fiber coupling assembly!
Higher energies per pulse will damage the connector used for alignment
and in the same time may damage the coupling lens (deposit melted metal
on lens surfaces).

 Now mark the fiber jacket with a water resistant marker for remembering the
relative position of the fiber to the fiber coupler (since after taking it out and
replacing it back you can rotate the fiber).
 Make several shots by pressing the footswitch for a very short time.
 Remove the connector and observe under a magnifier or microscope where
the laser beam hit the connector end-face (removed the green water resistant
ink). For perfect alignment the beam should be exactly in the center of the fiber
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 129/187
or within a circle of 2/3 of the fiber diameter. If the beam has missed the center
and is out of the so defined circle, or if the laser shot footprint is on the metal
part of the connector end-face, adjustment of the fiber coupling lens is
necessary.

9.1.2. Alignment procedure

For this purposes use the reference mark on the fiber connector. Before
proceeding with the alignment the black rubber fiber coupling feed-through should
be removed from the front panel.
 Insert the prepared fiber for adjustment as described in section 9.1.1.
 After making the first trial shots determine in which direction the alignment
should be done.
 The rule for alignment is that you should have to move the lens toward the
footprint of the laser beam on the connector metal end-face if the beam is off-
centered.
The location of adjusting screws is shown on the picture bellow looking from the
front side:

 Turn the appropriate adjusting screw on the fiber coupling assembly and make
trial shots. Make corrections until prefect alignment is achieved. If necessary
re-paint the fiber used for adjustment with the green waterproof marker.
 When you finish the adjustment attach a new fiber beam delivery to the fiber
coupler assembly and make trial shots.

CAUTION
Before inserting the new fiber beam delivery inspect and convince yourself
that the new fiber connector end-face is clean. If it is not then clean it with
cotton pad immersed in pure alcohol!

 Make trial shots, increase energy by increasing the voltage.


 If everything is OK leave the service mode of operation.
 Go in normal mode of operation, select the Nd:YAG laser, select and confirm
the spot size and check the system for proper operation at different laser
parameters (fluence, frequency). You can perform also energy measurements
with the new fiber.
 Also check if the red aiming beam is properly adjusted - aim the hand piece
exit on a white sheet of paper. A nice red circle should be observed. If it is not
then a realignment of the aiming laser beam to the fiber coupler must be
performed (see instructions for this procedure in this manual).
This completes the alignment procedure.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 130/187


9.2. Alignment procedure for the articulated arm (Valid for models
M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)
This procedure assumes that the aiming beam is in alignment with the Er:YAG
beam. If it is not then the adjustment of the aiming laser should be performed first.
Follow the instructions in this manual to perform alignment
To determine if the aiming beam is in alignment with the Er:YAG beam:
 Attach a wire cross on the arm exit aperture
 Take a sheet of thermal paper (fax machine paper) and place it approx 10 – 20
cm from the arm exit
 In different arm positions make trial shots on the paper and check if the
Er:YAG beam and red aiming beam are concentric (not necessary to be
centered on the wire cross).
 If they are not centered – alignment of the aiming laser is necessary – follow
instructions in this manual for performing this procedure.
The articulated arm needs realignment if the out-coming treatment laser beam is
not centered on the arm exit aperture. A centered metal wire cross is placed on the
arm exit. If the treatment laser beam center in different positions of the arm is de-
centered from the metal wire cross center for more then 0.75mm the arm needs to
be realigned.
For performing the articulated arm adjustment it is necessary to remove the SP
Dynamis front panel.
For removal of front panel follow the procedure for removal/replacement described
in this manual.
NOTE
Do not detach the front panel electrically from the rest of the system.

Go in Expert Er Treatment Group and chose any full beam straight handpiece, SP
operatioin mode, and pulse energy of approx. 100 mJ and a frequency of 2Hz.
Go in READY – this will allow the red aiming beam to emerge from the arm or arm
holder.
The specified performance of the articulated arm can only be achieved if the
Er:YAG laser beam is launched into the arm correctly. The optical performance of
the arm is referenced to its mounting flange (label “FRONT”), which has been
specially prepared to simplify and guarantee the alignment.
The laser beam launched must be correct in NEAR and FAR field. In practice, only
the near field must be set accurately initially, with the arm itself used subsequently
confirm the far field alignment of the beam launch. It is important that no
assumptions are made about the near field position of the laser beam. The beam
MUST enter the arm on the geometric axis of the base mounting flange. This can
be accomplished by placing a metal cross on the arm holder exit, accurately
machined to be a close fit on the arm flange.
The Er:YAG laser optical path incorporates two steering mirrors upstream of the
arm mounting socket to allow separate and independent adjustment of the near
and far fields. The visible aiming laser beam must be co-axial with the Er:YAG
laser beam at its entry to the arm.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 131/187


9.2.1. Articulated arm alignment procedure 1 (preferred)

 Check the diode laser beam alignment and correct the alignment if it is not
aligned to the Er:YAG laser beam.
 Remove the articulated arm from the system.
 Insert the articulated arm input cross (code 62490 or 70248) into the articulated
arm input flange.
 Mount the arm back to the support base.
 Place an articulated arm output cross (code 55895) to the arm exit.
 Observe the position of red aiming diode laser beam according to both
alignment crosses. The input cross will be seen as many diffraction lines and
the actual position of the cross is seen as the darkest crossed lines.
 Rotate the output alignment cross to get better observation.
 Align the lower steering mirror inside the articulated arm support to center the
red aiming beam through the input cross.

 Align the upper steering mirror inside the articulated arm support (three holes)
to center the red aiming beam through the output cross. Neglect the position of
the red aiming beam according to the input cross.

 Repeat the alignment of the lower steering mirror followed by alignment of the
upper steering mirror till the red aiming beam is centered through both crosses.
 Rotate the output cross to check if the crosses are overlapped and if the red
aiming beam is centered to overlapped crosses.

 Remove the articulated arm from support.


 Remove the input cross.
 Install the articulated arm back. The arm is still equipped with the output cross.
 Fire the Er:YAG laser beam through the output cross. The Er:YAG beam
should be centered to the output cross. If the beam is not centered then a
small misalignment is corrected with the adjustment of the Er:YAG laser beam
aligning only the lower steering mirror.
 Try the Er:YAG beam in three very different positions of the articulated arm.
The Er:YAG laser beam must be centered to the output cross in all positions of
the articulated arm.
 If the Er:YAG laser beam is not centered to the output cross in all positions the
diode laser alignment must be improved. Please refer to the aiming diode laser
alignment section of this service manual. After improved aiming diode laser

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 132/187


alignment the articulated arm alignment mist be performed as described in this
section of the service manual.
 Remove the crosses and assemble the system when the Er:YAG laser beam is
centered to the output cross in all articulated arm positions.

9.2.2. Articulated arm alignment procedure 2

The procedure for alignment of the arm is as follows:



Insert the metal cross on the arm holder socket and using the steering mirror
furthest upstream from the arm (NEAR FIELD mirror), adjust the near field
position of the aiming beam until the beam emerges from the metal cross
center.
 Remove the metal cross and lay a suitable mirror over the mounting socket
aperture to reflect the aiming beam laser back into the system. Adjust the
steering mirror nearer to the arm (FAR FIELD mirror) to obtain a reflection of
the laser beam onto itself.
 If a large adjustment was necessary, remove the mirror and replace the metal
cross in the mounting socket. Check that the aiming laser beam is still passing
centrally through the metal cross and if not, adjust the near field mirror.
 Remove the metal cross and replace the mirror over the aperture in the socket.
Confirm that the laser beam is still reflected back to the internal pinhole. Again
if this is not the case, make necessary adjustment to the far field mirror.
 Repeat the above steps as necessary to ensure that the aiming beam is
passing centrally through the mounting socket metal cross. Usually two or
three iterations are sufficient.
 Remove the metal cross and fit the arm to the mounting socket with three
bolts.
 The aiming laser beam will be emerging from the arm at or near the center of
the hand piece connecting nut but a minor adjustment of the laser head FAR
FIELD steering mirror would be advisable to obtain optimum performance.
 Place a targeting device on the hand piece nut of the articulated arm. This can
be as simple as a piece of adhesive tape fixed to the end of the nut. Mark a dot
on the tape and spin the nut while observing the motion of the mark. If the
mark is not stationary, move the tape on the nut until there is no obvious
movement of the mark when the nut is rotated. The target mark will then be
positioned on the rotational axis of the hand piece nut and should not be
moved.
 Observe the position of the aiming laser beam relative to the target mark and
make a careful adjustment of the far field mirror to center the beam on the
mark. The orientation of the arm is not important.
 The arm is now aligned on the system, which can be confirmed by
manipulating all the knuckles. Beam wander at the hand piece nut should be
less then +/- 0.75mm but if this is not the case, the arm can be removed to
make any necessary corrections to the near field mirror, which might have
changed slightly during adjustment of the far field mirror. If this is found to be
the case, the alignment procedure could be repeated.
 Fasten a centered metal wire cross to the hand piece nut and make trial
Er:YAG laser shots. Observe the shape on a black paper (or thermal paper)
placed 10 to 15 cm from the hand piece nut. The center of the cross must be in
the center of the beam.
 If available attach R04 hand piece to the arm
 Observe the red aiming beam at the hand piece nozzle aperture. It should be
centered on the nozzle aperture.
 If it is not, make small corrections in the far field mirror to achieve optimal
adjustment in different position of arm.
 If the arm is removed subsequently for shipping on re-assembly, ensure that
there is no debris in the mounting socket or on the machined face of the arm
base flange. You might find that a very minor adjustment of the far field mirror
is necessary but usually you should not experience any problems with the arm.

9.3. Aiming beam laser alignment procedure for Er:YAG laser (Valid
for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)
In case of misalignment or replacement of the diode laser it is necessary to realign
it.

9.3.1. Aiming laser beam alignment

This procedure assumes that the Er:YAG laser is aligned. Check the Er:YAG laser
alignment and optimize it if it is necessary.
 Turn off the laser system.
 Remove the articulated arm from the system.
 Remove the metal cone around the arm support and place the plastic cover
protection to the top of the support for lens protection. The cover is delivered
with the system. It is placed on the cone. It fits the arm support if is turned
around.
 Remove the upper and both side covers.
 Remove the front panel. Leave it functionally connected.
 Remove the EMI protection in front of the articulated support.
 Remove the laser head protective earth (PE) connection from the housing.
 Set the system app. 3m from some vertical surface (wall) or use the bending
tool ID70440 and activate the wheel brakes. The system should not move
during the procedure.
 Start the system, enter the Er:YAG Service/Energymeter setup screen, enter
READY at any settings. The diode laser should come out from the system.
 Fix a thermal (fax, printer) paper on a distant place (wall). The aiming laser
beam will indicate the approximate place.
 Select SP and voltage that corresponds to 1J output energy. Fire the laser to
the thermal paper. Keep firing till some obvious mark is made on the paper on
the wall. This is now the reference and must not be moved. If it is moved a new
mark must be made.
 Reduce the voltage to get app. 100mJ to 150mJ.
 Displace the energy meter to reach the aiming laser upper adjusting screws
(allan wrench 2.5). The energy meter must remain functional and the flash
lamp pulse sensor must not be interrupted.
 Place a stand with thermal paper close from the arm support exit hole
approximately 10cm away from exit. The stand can be improvised with some
box, laser cover or anything else. The stand must stay still.
 Fire the Er:YAG laser to the thermal paper on the stand. The beam will make a
mark.
 Adjust the near field aiming laser screws. The aiming laser beam should
overlap with Er:YAG laser beam.
 Remove the stand and observe the position of the aiming beam against the
Er:YAG laser mark on the wall. If it is above the reference mark then the far
field aiming laser must be moved laser mark on the wall paper.
 Repeat the procedure of firing the Er:YAG laser to the stand and correcting the
near field aiming laser alignment according to the mark on the stand.
 Repeat the far field aiming laser alignment according to the reference mark on
the wall.
 Repeat both aligning procedures as many times is necessary to perfectly
overlap the aiming laser beam with the mark on the stand and the reference
mark on the wall at the same time. In such condition the aiming laser beam is
aligned to the Er:YAG laser beam.
 Assemble the system.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 134/187


NOTE
After performing the aimimg laser alignement it is absolutely necessary to
align also the aiming beam for the Nd:YAG laser. Follow the instructions in
this manual to perform this alignment.

9.4. Aiming (Pilot) laser alignment procedure for Nd:YAG laser (Valid
for models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F)
This procedure assumes that the fiber coupling assembly is properly aligned for the
Nd:YAG.
In case when the red aiming beam emerging form the hand piece is of annular ring
shape or irregular shape it is necessary to realign it.
 Turn off the main circuit breaker
 Remove the top and left side cover
 Remove the laser head cover.
 Turn on the system
 After the self-test select the Nd:YAG laser and any parameters in any
application.
 Select PILOT level 7
 Touch the READY button - the system calibrates the laser, opens the shutter
allowing the read aiming beam from the diode laser to propagate through the
fiber optic beam delivery.
 Observe if the aiming beam comes out from the fiber beam delivery.
 If not then:
 Locate the beam bender which bends the aiming beam to the Nd:YAG
beam combiner.
 Aim a fiber beam delivery distal end on a white sheet of paper
 With the adjusting screws on the beam bender adjust the red aiming beam
until you get at the distal end of the attached fiber beam delivery a nice red
circular spot.
This completes the diode laser alignment procedure.

9.5. Er:YAG laser alignment (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-
2A)
NOTE
This alignment procedure is performed by the built in service utility for
Er:YAG laser in Settings/Er:YAG Service/Energymeter setup

WARNING
High voltage is present on the simmer trigger board during laser alignment
as well as on the PFM41 assembly as well as at the mains inlet!

Should the laser get misaligned (when the system cannot realize the requested
energy in normal operation or during calibration), or if the resonator mirrors has
been changed, or if the laser pumping chamber or flash lamp has been changed
the service firmware facilitates the alignment of Er:YAG laser.

The appropriate service firmware can be accessed from the touchscreen as
described in previous sections.
The appropriate service firmware can be accessed from the touchscreen as
described in previous sections.
The Energymeter setup utility in Er:YAG Service performs the following functions:
 does not stabilize the output energy (the energy regulation feedback is not
active) and it ignores the energy meters mismatch.
 it measures and displays the energy of both Feedback and Monitor energy
meters on the control panel display
The alignment procedure is as follows:
 Turn off the main circuit breaker and disconnect the power cord from the
mains.
 Remove the system top cover.
 Remove the cover of the laser head.
 Attach the power cord to the mains.
 Turn on the system.
 Enter the service firmware through Settings – Service Er – Energymeter setup
 Select SP operation mode, a voltage of 380 V and a frequency of 5 Hz.
 Press READY.
 Remove the Er:YAG hand piece from the articulated arm. Aim the articulated
arm exit on an absorbing target!

CAUTION
During alignment a laser beam will emerge from the articulated arm exit!

 Use the supplied tool (insulated Allan key for laser adjustment) and place it in
one of the rear mirror adjustment screws.
 Press footswitch.
 Observe the feedback energy reading on the display
 If the readings are near 0 then increase the voltage setting until you get some
lasing.
 By turning both adjusting screws of the rear mirror try to maximize the
feedback energy. In case that even with the highest allowed voltage setting no
feedback energy occurs then try at this voltage setting to adjust the rear mirror
until the laser starts to lase. When you get lasing, maximize the laser energy.
During this maximization if the measured feedback energy gets greater then
500 mJ decrease the voltage setting and press READY.
 After the maximal energy has been reached also check if for this maximized
output energy the shape of the laser spot emerging from the articulated arm is
circular and centered on the articulated arm exit aperture for different positions
of the articulated arm. If necessary additionally realign the FAR field steering
mirror (the first steering mirror from the articulated arm upstream to the Er:YAG
laser) - refer to articulated arm alignment procedure.
This completes the laser alignment procedure.
Leave the service mode by turning off the main circuit breaker.
Turn the system on in and check the system in normal operation at different
parameters.

9.6. Nd:YAG Laser alignment (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M001-
12F)
NOTE
This alignment procedure is performed by the built in service utility that can
be axcessed through Settings/Nd:YAG Service/Energymeter setup.

WARNING
Observe caution, high voltage or dangerous voltage is present on the
simmer trigger board during laser alignment as well as on the PFM41
assembly and at mains inlet!

The laser might be misaligned when:


 The Nd:YAG laser cannot realize the requested Fluence/Energy in normal
operation or during calibration, or
 The fiber optic beam delivery proximal side is being damaged, or
 The Nd:YAG laser resonator mirror(s) has been changed, or
 The Nd:YAG laser pumping chamber or flashlamp has been changed
The built in service firmware energymeter setup for Nd:YAG laser facilitates the
alignment of Nd:YAG laser.
The service firmware can be accessed from the touchscreen thorugh Settings-
Service Nd – Energymeter setup as described in previous sections.
The service firmware performs the following functions:
 Does not stabilize the output power (the energy regulation feedback is not
active) and it ignores the energy meters mismatch.
 It displays the operating voltage on the capacitor bank
 It displays the selected repetition rate
 It measures and displays the measured raw (uncompensated) energy of both
the Feedback and Monitor energy meters on the control panel display.
The alignment procedure is as follows:
 Turn off the main circuit breaker and disconnect it from the mains.
 Remove the system top cover.
 Remove the black plastic cover of the laser head.
 Attach the power cord to the mains
 Turn on the system and enter the Nd:YAG Service/Energymeter setup as

coupler assembly!
Use appropriate absorber for absorbing the beam.

 Select a voltage of 230V


 Select a 5ms pulse width
 Select Frequency of 3Hz

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 137/187


 Use the supplied tool (insulated Allan key for laser adjustment) and place it in
one of the rear mirror adjustment screws.
 Press footswitch.
 Observe the feedback energy reading on the display
 If the readings are near 0 mJ then increase the voltage setting until you get
some lasing.
 By turning both rear mirror adjusting screws try to maximize the feedback
energy. In case that even with the highest allowed voltage setting no feedback
energy occurs then try at this voltage setting to adjust the rear mirror until the
laser starts to lase. If the energies measured by Feedback or Monitor energy
meter are higher then 3 J decrease the voltage and proceed with energy
maximization.
 When the maximal energy been reached, check additionally if the laser beam
transmitted through the Nd:YAG shutter apertures without clipping and if the
laser spot is of regular circular shape
 Check with an old damaged fiber optic beam delivery the fiber coupling
assembly alignment. Perform the adjustment if needed
 Then check the laser spot footprint on a black (the best is to use a black photo
paper)
 Place the photo paper approx 5 cm from front panel in direction of the laser
beam. Adjust voltage to get approx 4 J of energy per pulse.
 Make trial shots on the paper – the beam should be a nice circular beam. If not
proceed with adjustment of the rear mirror to get nice circular beam and the
highest energy.
 After achieving the shape of the beam and energy check the fiber alignment
and perform adjustment of the fiber coupling assembly if necessary.
This completes the laser alignment procedure.
 Leave the service mode by turning off the system circuit breaker
 Enter normal mode of operation and check if the laser operates properly at all
settings.
 If the calibration sequence is too long or if you observe overshooting the
Nd:YAG parameters file should be edited. Please consult Fotona service staff
for advice.

9.7. Energymeters calibration procedure


NOTE
An external calibrated energy/power meter for Er:YAG laser (wavelength of
2940 nm) with accuracy better than 7% must be used to perform this
procedure.
The energy/power meter should be capable to measure laser pulse width
from 100 to 1500 microseconds and pulse energies up to 3J or more!
If instead of energy meter a power meter is used then to get the energy per
pulse divide the measured power with the frequency!
An external calibrated energy meter for Nd:YAG laser (wavelength of 1064
nm ) with accuracy better then 7% must be used to perform this
procedure.
Do not attempt to calibrate the energy meters if you do not have calibrated
external energy meters at disposal.
Serious damage to the system may ensue!

The purpose of the calibration procedure is to check whether the output energy
corresponds to the energy set by the operator and displayed on the control panel
screen within an accuracy range of ± 20 percent.
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 138/187
For Er:YAG laser in models M021-4AF/3 and model M002-2A there are two
energymeters - Monitor and Feedback. Each energymeter has two ranges LO and
HI that can be calibrated separately.
For Nd:YAG laser in models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F there are two pairs of
energymeters. One pair for Monitor the other for Feedback. Both the Feedback and
Monitor energymeters have a channel for LO and HI energies. Each channel can
be separately calibrated.
The Feedback energy meters are used to regulate the output energy with a digital
closed-loop feedback loop. The Monitor energy meters reading must match the
corresponding feedback energy meter reading. This forms a double safety
condition.
If the readings of corresponding Monitor and Feedback energy meters differ by
more then a prescribed value, the system will disable the respective laser, close
the safety shutters, block the entire system and display an energy meters
mismatch message.
The laser system uses laser beam delivery systems which inherently give rise to
certain losses in the transmitted laser beams.
To ensure the system displays the treatment energy accurately, these losses are
compensated by the system itself through transmission factors for each handpiece
and fiber.
Both lasers use their respective beam deliveries and hand pieces with certain
transmission losses. To assure that the system delivers accurate energies and
powers displayed on the control panel these losses are compensated by the
system itself (handpiece transmissions – already described in this manual
elswhere).
This procedure assumes that the laser is in alignment.

9.7.1. Er:YAG Feedback and Monitor energy meter calibration procedure (Valid for
models M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A)

NOTE
Before you attempt the Er:YAG energy meter calibration procedure it is
advisable to check if the Er:YAG beam is centered on the articulated arm
exit aperture. If it is then proceed with the calibration of energy meters. If it
is not, then first perform the alignment of the articulated arm as described
in the Service manual.

The Er:YAG laser energy meter calibration procedure is as follows:


 Remove the hand piece and then the articulated arm
 Remove the laser system’s upper cover and laser head cover to gain access to
the energy meter assembly
 Place the external energy meter approx. 15 cm from the arm socket (from the
beam coupling lens)
 Switch on the system and enter the service utility with Settings/Er:YAG
Service/Energymeter setup – as explained in Section 7.3.6
 Select SP operation mode, frequency of 5Hz and after entering the READY
mode measure and subsequently adjust voltage to get a reading of approx.
150 mJ on the external energy meter
 Observe the readings of F (Feedback) and M (Monitor) energy meters on the
display.
 Locate the FErLO feedback energy meter trimpot
 Use a suitable screwdriver to turn the trimpot.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 139/187


 Press the footswitch and measure the energy continuously with the external
energy meter
 Slowly adjust the FErLO trimpot until the reading of the F energy meter
coincides with the reading of the external energy meter
 With the footswitch pressed, adjust the MErLO trimpot until the readings of the
M (monitor) energy meter match the readings of the F (Feedback) energy
meter
 Repeat the procedure at different modes MSP, SP, LP, VLP and XLP and
different frequencies but with voltages that realize energies between 30mJ and
less than or equal to 250mJ. Make small corrections where necessary. The F
(Feedback) energy meter should match the reading of the external energy
meter within ±10% for all energies between 30 to 250mJ. The M (Monitor)
energy meter should match the reading of the F (Feedback) energy meter
within ±15% for all energies between 30 and 250mJ at all frequencies and
pulse widths.
 This completes the FErLO and MErLO energy meter calibration
 Now select SP Operation mode, 5Hz, and select a voltage to get a reading of
approx 700mJ on the external energy meter.
 Observe the readings of F (Feedback) and M (Monitor) energy meters on the
display.
 Locate the FErHI feedback energy meter trimpot
 Use a suitable screwdriver to turn the trimpot.
 Press the footswitch and measure the energy continuously with the external
energy meter
 Slowly adjust the FErHI trimpot until the reading of the Feedback energy meter
coincides with the reading of the external energy meter
 With the footswitch pressed, adjust the MErHI trimpot until the readings of the
M (Monitor) energy meter matches the readings of the F (Feedback) energy
meter
 Repeat the procedure at different modes MSP, SP, LP, VLP and XLP and
different frequencies but with such voltages that are realizing energies between
500mJ and 1500mJ. Make small corrections where necessary. The F
(Feedback) energy meter should match the reading of the external energy
meter within ±10% for all energies between 500 to 1500mJ. The M (Monitor)
energy meter should match the reading of the F (Feedback) energy meter
within ±15% for all energies between 500 and 1500mJ at all frequencies and
pulse widths.
This completes the FErHI and MErHI energymeters calibration
 Exit service mode.
In normal operation with Er:YAG laser measure the laser energy emitted from the
selected hand piece at different settings. The readings of the external energy
should match the selected energies on the display within ± 20%.
NOTE
Please note that the energy measured at the arm socket with the reference
energy meter in normal operating mode differs from the energy selected on
the display by the transmission factor of the selected hand piece.
For example:
If handpiece R04 is selected, then its transmission is typically 0.93.
If the selected energy on the display is 1000 mJ then the energy measured
with the external energy meter should be 1000/0.93 = 1075 mJ.

This completes the energy meter calibration


Reassemble laser system in reverse order.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 140/187


9.7.2. Nd:YAG Feedback and Monitor energy meter calibration procedure (Valid
for models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F)

NOTE
Before starting the energy meter calibration procedure, check that the red
aiming beam emitted from the hand piece is a regular, circular shape.
If it is not, the fiber-optic delivery unit may be damaged at the proximal or
distal end, or the fiber coupling optics may be misaligned.
To check the alignment of the fiber coupling optics, please refer to the
Service Manual.
If the fiber coupling optics are aligned, but the emerging aiming beam is still
not a regular circular shape, then replace the complete fiber-optic delivery
unit.
Proceed with the calibration procedure described below once the shape of
the aiming beam is regular.

NOTE
Energy measurements for the Nd:YAG laser should be performed on a
single pulse, since there are currently no commercial energy meters on the
market that can measure high energies from pulse to pulse at higher
repetition rates.
For this reason, measure the energy for every fifth laser pulse. To perform
this correctly, with a suitable absorber, close the beam path to the energy
meter probe and open the path on every fifth pulse.

The Nd:YAG energy meter in the models M021-4AF/3 and M001-12F consists of
two pairs of laser beam energy sensors. In each pair, one sensor is used for
measuring LOW energies the other for measuring HIGH energies. For this reason
there are four trimpots for trimming the response of the energy sensor. Therefore
the feedback energy sensors are designated as FNdLO and FNdHI. The same
holds for the Monitor energy sensors – MNdLO and MNdHI.
LOW energies are energies up to 5J HIGH energies are energies higher than 5J.
The Nd:YAG laser energy meter calibration procedure is as follows:
Calibration of LOW Energy sensors
 Switch off the system and disconnect it from the mains electrical supply.
 Remove the laser system’s upper cover as well as the laser head cover to gain
access to the energy meter assembly.
 Disconnect the fiber-optic beam delivery unit from the system.
 Place the external energy meter approx. 15cm from the fiber coupling
assembly port (to get a red aiming beam of approx. 15mm diameter).
 Switch the system on and enter the service firmware through Settings –
Service Nd – Energymeter setup .
 Select a 2 ms pulsewidth and a repetition rate of 1 Hz.
 Make trial shots and subsequently adjust the voltage to a reading of 2.5J on
the external energy meter.
 Then locate the FNdLO (Feedback) energy meter for low energies and adjust
the Feedback energymeter reading to match the reading on the external
energy meter.
 Repeat the same procedure with the MNdLO (Monitor) energy meter but now
with MNdLO trimpot and Monitor energymeter reading

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 141/187


 Then make measurements at approx. 0.5 J and also at energies close to (but
less than) 5 J by adjusting the voltage.
 Then check the matching of Feedback energymeter reading with an external
energy meter at different pulse width from 0.1 to 50 ms and at different
frequencies for energies not greater than 5J.
 The Feedback energy meter reading should match the external energy meter
reading within ±10%.
 The Monitor energy meter should match the reading of the Feedback energy
meter within ±15%.
This completes the FNdLO and MNdLO energy meters calibration.
Calibration of HIGH energy sensors
 The High energy energy meters measure energies greater than or equal to 5J.
 The procedure is the same as for low energies, except that in this case the
potentiometers to be adjusted on the energy meter assembly are FNdHI and
MndHI.
 Adjust the pulsewidth to 2ms and the repetition rate to 1 Hz.
 Adjust the voltage to get a reading of approx. 10 J on the external energy
meter.
 Then adjust the FNdHI trimpot until the reading Feedback energymedter on the
system’s display matches the reading on the external energy meter.
 Adjust the MNdHI trimpot to match the reading Monitor energymeter on the
system’s display to the value of the Feedback energy meter reading.
 Then make measurements at energies close to (but greater than) 5 J and at
different pulse widths ranging from 0.3 to 50ms. Perform the same tests at the
highest energy settings of 50J.
 The Feedback energy meter reading should match the external energy meter
reading within ±10%.
 The Monitor energy meter should match the reading of the Feedback energy
meter within ±15%.
 Exit service mode and enter application with full beam straight handpiece.
 Attach the fiber beam delivery unit and the selected hand piece.
 Measure the laser energy emitted from the selected hand piece at different
settings. The readings of the external energy should match the selected
energies on the display within ± 20%.
This completes the calibration of the Nd:YAG laser feedback and monitor energy
meter.
NOTE
Follow the instructions for operation with energy meters to make accurate
measurements. Most energy meters cannot measure energies at repetition
rates of 1 Hz.
In such cases screen the energy meter with a suitable absorber and make
measurements of each 4th or 5th laser shot.

9.8. Beam delivery calibration procedure

9.8.1. Er:YAG beam delivery calibration (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and M002-
2A)

The Er:YAG laser beam delivery is a 7-mirror articulated arm. The articulated arm
itself is a high reliability component. Nevertheless, if it is handled without care
damage to the internal optics can occur. In such cases the transmission of the arm
can drop and/or the beam shape at the arm exit can be affected.
For checking the articulated arm for transmission, please follow the procedure
bellow:
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 142/187
 Dismount the hand piece form the articulated arm.
 Dismount the articulated arm from the system
 Place the external energy meter approx. 10 – 15 cm from the laser aperture
where the arm fixing flange is located

CAUTION
When the articulated arm is dismounted a free access to the beam
transforming lens in the system's arm fixing flange is possible. Do not
touch the lens by fingers and do not allow dust or any contaminants to fall
on the lens. Inspect it and if necessary clean it.

 Turn the system ON.


 After the self-test completes select an application with ErY:AG laser
 Then select Energy: 500 mJ, operation mode SP, hand piece R04 and
frequency of 5Hz
 Touch the READY button
 After the shutter opens position the external energy meter head to be centered
on the red aiming beam.
 Press the footswitch and measure the energy of the emerging treatment beam
by the external CALIBRATED energy meter for 2940nm.

 If it is out of this range the feedback energy meter needs a recalibration -
Please follow the instruction for Feedback energy meter calibration for Er:YAG
laser as described above.
 If it is, then write down the measured energy value
 Then install the articulated arm on the system and measure the energy at the
arm exit at the same parameters. The measured energy should be smaller by
no more then 5 - 7%
articulated arm. If the measured energy is significantly less then the one
measured without arm the articulated arm may be damaged and has a lower
transmission (normal transmission of the articulated arm is 95%).
 In this case look through the arm and observe if damages on arm optics are
visible. If yes, replacement of the arm is necessary.
 If the reading on the external reference energymeter is within the above
tolerance window of 5 – 7% less then without arm the articulated arm is OK
and calibrated.

9.8.2. Nd:YAG laser beam delivery calibration (Valid for models M021-4AF/3 and
M001-12F)

The beam delivery of Nd:YAG laser is fiber optic beam delivery. If it is not
damaged (broken) and the SMA 905 connector is clean on both sides, and if the
red aiming beam emerging from the fiber distal end is of nice regular circular shape
the fiber beam delivery is OK. Nevertheless, if the fiber is delivering less energy
(more then 20% less then it is displayed on the laser system control panel display)
then the fiber beam delivery should be replaced with a new one. If even with the
new fiber beam delivery the delivered energy from the fiber is more then 20% less
then it is displayed on the laser system control panel display then the energy
meters in the system need a re-calibration.

10.2. Error messages reported by the system

10.2.1. ERROR 3 - Nd shutter error

This error message means that the Er:YAG laser safety shutter do not follow the
commands from the controller.
 Check if the 24VDC supply cable is properly connected to HEAD CTRL board.
If anything is to be repaired always turn the main switch OFF. The 24VDC power supply of
HEAD CTRL and ENERGY METER is capable to deliver considerable currents. In case of
short circuits, connectors can be damaged.
 Check if optical links (fibers) OW3 and OW4 are properly inserted in their
receptacles both on the Controller and HEAD CTRL board. Remove fiber from
white transmitter body (OW4) on the HEAD CTRL board and check if it emits
light with the system in turned ON state.
 If yes, then:
 Dismount the HEAD CTRL board together with the shutter assembly and
check if the shutter blade is freely rotating.
 If it is blocked or stiff, then the shutter assembly together with the HEAD
CTRL board has to be changed, or The reason of mechanical blockage has
to be corrected.
NOTE
For inspecting and correcting the shutter mechanical blockage the shutter
assembly should be removed from the HEAD CTRL board. For doing this,
the actuator wires should not be de-soldered from the board.

If the shutter moves freely then the problem is in the HEAD CTRL board. Most
probably the communication IC is faulty. Replace the IC or PCB with a new one.

10.2.2. ERROR 5 – Coolant flow low


This error message can appear during the self-test or during normal operation.
During self-test the coolant flow rate is delayed 5 seconds from the start of the
pump to allow the flow to establish. Later on continuous monitoring is performed.
 Check if during startup of the system, before the error message appeared, the
pump operates. If no, then:
 Check if 24 VDC is present on TV RELAY TS1 PCB on X4 conncetor pin
1 (PUMP DRV signal) to start the soft start circuit (comprising FETs V11
and V13)
 If no, then check if 24 VDC is present on the RELAY TS1 board
terminal block X15 between pins 1 and 2 during startup.
 If 24VDC is OK between pins 1 and 2 of X15, then
 The REALY TS1 board is faulty and should be
replaced.
 The SYS Controller does not activate the pump
relay. The driving FET on the I/O Dynamis TS
could be faulty or the I/O Dynamis TS could be
faulty.
 If not OK then 24VDC at the Axiliary power supply
output could be faulty. Check the connections.
 If the pump operates and the cooling liquid is flowing through the laser then:
 Check if the connector is properly attached to the flow sensor.
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 152/187
 Check if the Flow sensor 24VDC is present on the connector.
 If all above is OK then replace the Flow sensor

10.2.3. ERROR 6 - Can't calibrate Nd:YAG laser

The error message means that the Nd:YAG laser during calibration achieved the
maximal allowable voltage ad the energy of the laser is still 30% lower then
requested.
Check the laser at lower energy (fluence) settings. If it does not report this
message then:
 The Nd:YAG laser efficiency dropped due to loss of flashlamp efficiency –
replace the flashlamp in Nd:YAG laser.
 The Nd:YAG laser is misaligned – perform the laser alignment according to this
manual
 The Nd:YAG laser resonator mirrors are damaged – check the resonator
mirrors and replace if necessary
 The energy meter is not calibrated – check it for calibration at lower energy
settings according to the procedure described in this manual.
 The laser crystal is damaged. Replace the laser rod.
 The laser cavity reflector assembly is damaged. Replace the laser cavity
reflector.
 The cooling liquid is leaking near the laser rod end surface. Fix the leaking and
clean the laser end surface.
 Some pollutant have entered the cooling circuit and pollute the laser cavity.
Disassemble the laser cavity to safe level and clean the internal parts.

10.2.4. ERROR 7 - HI Nd:YAG Energy meters mismatch

The Monitor energy meter reading is differing form the Feedback energy meter
reading for more then the prescribed allowed value.
 Perform the Nd:YAG energy meter calibration according to this manual
 If the monitor energy meter cannot be calibrated then replace the complete
energy meter
 The laser is misaligned and the laser beam is not optimized. One energy meter
is picking different signal from the beam. Align the laser.
 The output laser mirror is slightly damaged and the laser beam is not optimize.
One energy meter is picking different signal from the beam. Replace the faulty
mirror.
 Energy meters are receiving EMI (electromagnetic interference) and their
readings are not stable. At certain moment a difference can cause an error
case.
 Try to replace the flash lamp to reduce the EMI emission.

10.2.5. ERROR 8 – HI Nd:YAG Energy meter too high

This error message can appear only during normal operation usually in the first or
few pulses after pressing the foot switch. It means that the Nd:YAG laser energy
measured by the energy meter exceeds the requested value for more then the
allowed prescribed value due to overshooting in energy regulation.
 Check if the Nd:YAG laser is in alignment.
 Check if energy meter is faulty or not calibrated well (calibration).
 Energy meters are receiving EMI (electromagnetic interference) and their
readings are not stable. At certain moment a difference can cause an error
case.
 Try to replace the flash lamp to reduce the EMI emission.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 153/187


 The output laser mirror is slightly damaged and the laser beam is not
optimized. One energy meter is picking different signal from the laser beam.
Replace the faulty mirror.
 The laser I/O characteritics parameters (in Settings - Service Nd – Laser I/O
setup for Nd:YAG at pulsewitdh at which the error was generated) does not
match well with the true laser inside the system. Optimize the laser and
optimize the laser I/O characteristic parameters.
 The charger can charge the capacitor bank to higher voltage then necessary.
 The PFM CTRL PCB is not reading or comparing correctly the OW16
reference signal and is probably faulty. Replace the PCB.
 The charger is leaking charging current and consequently rising
capacitor bank voltage. In such case the error is detected after an
operation pause.

10.2.6. ERROR 9 - Er shutter error

This error message means that the Er:YAG laser safety shutter do not follow the
commands from the controller.
 Check if the 24VDC supply cable is properly connected to HEAD CTRL board.
If anything is to be repaired always turn the main switch OFF. The 24VDC power
supply of HEAD CTRL and ENERGY METER is capable to deliver considerable
currents. In case of short circuits, connectors can be damaged.
 Check if optical links (fibers) OW3 and OW4 are properly inserted in their
receptacles both on the Controller and HEAD CTRL board. Remove fiber from
white transmitter body (OW4) on the HEAD CTRL board and check if it emits
light with the system in turned ON state.
 If yes, then:
 Dismount the HEAD CTRL board together with the shutter assembly and
check if the shutter blade is freely rotating.
 If it is blocked or stiff, then the shutter assembly together with the HEAD
CTRL board has to be changed, or The reason of mechanical blockage
has to be corrected.
 If the shutter moves freely, then the problem is in the HEAD CTRL board. Most
probably the communication IC is faulty. Replace the IC or PCB with a new
one.
NOTE
For inspecting and correcting the shutter mechanical blockage the shutter
assembly should be removed from the HEAD CTRL board. For doing this,
the actuator wires should not be de-soldered from the board.

10.2.7. ERROR 10 - Er:YAG EDA error

This error means that the synchronizing signal Energy meter Data Available (EDA)
from Er:YAG energy meter is not detected by the controller.
 The possible reasons are:
 The simmer current is not present through the Er:YAG flash lamp
 Turn-off the system and turn it on again. If the error 15 shows up
then:
 Simmer power supply open circuit voltage should be
measured (approx 600V) immediately after turning on
the Charger and before the error message 15 happens)
 If the simmer power supply open circuit voltage is OK
then observe if the Trigger board triggers the flashlamp
before the error message 15 appears.
 If not, the Flash lamp could be faulty – replace it, or the
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 154/187
 Simmer trigger board could be faulty – replace it.
 The flash lamp pulse has not happened and the simmer current is OK – The
IGBT switch on the PFM41 assembly does not respond to commands from the
controller. Check if a single Er:YAG flash lamp pulse is created during the
calibration before the error message is generated.
 If not, then check if OW5 for driving the IGBT pulse is properly attached
to PFM41 or Controller assembly. If it is, then:
 Check during start-up of the system if the OW19 fiber is emitting
a red light and if the OW19 fiber is correctly attached to the
PFM41 assembly.
 If the OW 19 fiber does not emit a red light the crowbar
protection is activated – very probably the energy meter
is faulty - replace it
 If OW19 emits a red light then:
 The PFM could be faulty
 The I/O Dynamis TS board could be faulty.
 If a single flash lamp pulse on the Er:YAG laser happens then
 Check if the flashpulse detector diode (SFH203P) on the Energy meter
assembly is screened and does not receive light from the flash lamp.
 If it is not screened, then:
 The energy meter board could be faulty – replace it, or
 The Controller I/O Dynamis TS board is to be replaced.

10.2.8. ERROR 11 - Nd:YAG EDA error

This error means that the synchronizing signal Energy meter Data Available (EDA)
from Nd:YAG Energy meter is not detected by the controller.
The possible reasons are:
 The simmer current is not present through the Nd:YAG flash lamp Turn-off the
system and turn it on again. If the error 15 shows up then:
 Simmer power supply open circuit voltage should be measured (approx.
600-800 VDC) immediately after turning on the Charger and before the
error message 15 happens)
 If the simmer power supply open circuit voltage is OK then
observe if the Trigger board triggers the flashlamp before the
error message 15 appears.
 If not, the Flash lamp could be faulty – replace it, or the
 Simmer trigger board could be faulty – replace it.
 The flash lamp pulse did not happened and the simmer current is OK – The
IGBT switch on the PFM41 assembly does not respond to commands from the
controller Check if a single Nd:YAG flash lamp pulse is created during the
calibration before the error message is generated.
 If not, then check if OW5 for driving the IGBT pulse is properly attached
to PFM41 or Controller assembly. If it is, then:
 Check during start-up of the system if the OW19 fiber is emitting
a red light and if the OW19 fiber is correctly attached to the
PFM41 assembly.
 If the OW 19 fiber does not emit a red light the crowbar
protection is activated – very probably the energy meter is faulty
- replace it
 If OW19 emits a red light then:
 The PFM41 could be faulty
 The I/O Dynamis TS board could be faulty.
 If a single flash lamp pulse on the Er:YAG laser happens then
 Check if the flashpulse detector (SFH203P) on the Energy meter
assembly is screened and does not receive light from the flash lamp.
 If it is not screened, then:

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 155/187


 The energy meter board could be faulty – replace it, or
 The Controller I/O Dynamis TS board is to be replaced.

10.2.9. ERROR 12 - Can't calibrate Er:YAG laser

This error message means that during calibration:For specific user settings the
maximum allowed voltage on the capacitor bank is achieved and the produced
laser output energy is still 30% lower then it should be.
 First check if the system performs calibration at lower energy settings and
lower repetition rates. If it does then the possible reasons:
 The Er:YAG laser is misaligned or the resonator mirrors are damaged –
check the alignment as well as the footprint of the laser spot.
 If the footprint shows noncircular spot but not signs of damaged
resonator components – then perform the laser alignment.
 If the laser footprint (spot) indicates a damaged resonator
component inspect the OC and HR resonator mirrors as well as
the rod for damage – replace the damaged mirror. If the laser
rod is damaged replace the complete pumping chamber.
 If the laser footprint is circular and no signs of damage of
resonator components is visible then:
 The flash lamp has lost its efficiency – replace it, or
 The energy meter is out of calibration (this is possible only if
calibration of energy meter was performed with an un-calibrated
external energy meter – the external energy meter was showing
much less energy than the actual energy) - perform calibration
with calibrated energy-meter.
 The Er:YAG laser has lost its efficiency (pumping chamber) –
replace the pumping chamber
 The Er:YAG laser needs too low voltage, which is lower then allowed for
realizing the requested energy.
 This could happen if the energy meter was calibrated with an un-
calibrated external reference energy meter. Actually the external energy
meter was showing higher energies than actual. Use a calibrated
external energy meter and repeat the energy meter calibration.
 The Er:YAG laser characteristics in the XY.dat files where edited in a
bad way. Write down the XY.dat file content before editing and after
editing and report them to Fotona service staff for advice how to
proceed.

10.2.10. ERROR 13 – HI Er:YAG energy meters mismatch

This error message indicates that the monitor HI Er:YAG energy meter reading
does not match the energy reading of the feedback energy meter within a
prescribed tolerance window.
Please perform the same service actions as in case of ERROR 7 case but for
Er:YAG laser

10.2.11. ERROR 14 – LO Er:YAG energy too high

It means that the Er:YAG laser energy measured by the LOW channel of ER:YAG
energy meter exceeds the requested value for more then the allowed prescribed
value due to overshooting in energy regulation.
The possible reasons for this error as well as the procedure for remedy are as
follows:
 Check if the ER:YAG laser is in alignment.
94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 156/187
 Check if energy meter is faulty or not calibrated well (calibration).
 Energy meters are receiving EMI (electromagnetic interference) and their
readings are not stable. At certain moment a difference can cause an error
case.
 Try to replace the flash lamp to reduce the EMI emission.
 The output laser mirror is slightly damaged and the laser beam is not
optimized. One energy meter is picking different signal from the laser beam.
Replace the faulty mirror.
 The laser description parameters (xy.dat files for Er:YAG laser) dose not
match well with the true laser inside the system. Optimize the laser and
optimize the laser description parameters.
 The charger can charge the capacitor bank to higher voltage then necessary.
 The PFM CTRL PCB is not reading or comparing correctly the OW16
reference signal and is probably faulty. Replace the PCB.
 The charger is leaking charging current and consequently rising
capacitor bank voltage. In such case the error is detected after an
operation pause.

10.2.12. ERROR 15 - Er:YAG Simmer error

This message means that the simmer current is not established through the flash
lamp of Er:YAG laser. This message is displayed only during self-test of the
system.
For troubleshooting please perform the following:
 Turn off the system
 Remove the instrument top cover
 Remove the laser head metal sheet cover
 Turn on the system
 Observe if the flashlamp triggers (short light pulses of pink color appear after
the Charger has turned on).
 If it triggers and the simmer current establishes and then turns off the
flashlamp is to be replaced.
 If it does not trigger then:
 Check if the simmer voltage on the Er:YAG flashlamp, after the
charger turns on and before the system generates the error
message, is approx. 600-800 VDC.

WARNING
Do not test the simmer voltage on the flash lmap terminals but on the
corresponding place on the PFM CTRL PCB. HV trigger pulse will destroy
your voltage meter. Trigger pulse has a small (not dangerous) energy but
has a very high peak voltage.

 If it is, then replace the flashlamp or the Simmer Trigger board.


 If it is not, then check if between terminal 3 and 4 of X2
connector on the Charger there is necessary simmer voltage
immediately before the error message is generated.
 If not then the charger could be faulty.
 If it is OK then check if the K1 relay on PFM41 assembly
is switched to the Er:YAG flashlamp.
 If it is not switched to Er:YAG flashlamp then
replace relay K1 on PFM41 assembly or relay
driving FET. Refer to LEDs indication the
selecting laser.

energy meter exceeds the requested value for more then the allowed prescribed
value due to overshooting in energy regulation.
The possible reasons for this error as well as the procedure for remedy are the
same as for LOW channel of Er:YAG energy meter already described in section
10.2.15. above.

10.2.17. ERROR 21 - LO Er:YAG energy meter 2X too high

It means that the Er:YAG laser energy measured by the LOW channel of Er:YAG
energy meter exceeds the requested value during energy regulation by more than
2 times.
The possible reasons for this error are:
 Check if the error message is repeated for same parameters selected.
If yes:
 Check if energy meter is faulty or not calibrated well (calibration).
 The output laser mirror is slightly damaged and the laser beam is not
optimized. One energy meter is picking different signal from the laser beam.
Replace the faulty mirror.
 The laser I/O characteristcis description parameters (in Settings – Service Er -
Laser I/O Setup) for the operation mode for which the error was reported, does
not match well with the true laser inside the system. The laser output energy
regulation is not stable. Optimize the laser and optimize the laser I/O
characteristics description parameters for the operation mode for which the
error was reported. Consult Fotona field service staff for additional instructions.
 The charger can charge the capacitor bank to higher voltage then necessary.
 The PFM41 CTRL PCB is not reading or comparing correctly the OW16
reference signal and is probably faulty. Replace the PCB or complete
PFM41 assembly.
 The charger is leaking charging current (charging when it should not)
and consequently rising capacitor bank voltage. In such case the error is
detected after an operation pause.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 158/187


Possible reason is that the Charger is faulty. Before changing the
Charger please check the voltage on the capacitor bank between HV
terminals + and – on the PFM41 assembly and compare them with the
values the computer is sending to the charger. To accomplish this, enter
the service formware in Settings – Service Er – Laser I/O setup, and

compare it with the measurements. Consult Fotona service for additional
help. You can accomplish this measurement also by running the service
firmware in Settings – Service Er – Energymeter setup, and set the laser
operating voltage, go in READY and check the voltage on the capacitor
bank between HV terminals + and – on the PFM41 assembly and
compare it with the setting value. If the capacitor bank voltage do not
correspond to the values requested by the controller then the Charger
should be replaced.
If no:
 Energy meter is receiving EMI (electromagnetic interference) and its readings
are not stable. At certain moment a difference can cause an error case.
 Try to replace the energy meter assembly with EMI less sensitive one.
 Try to replace the flash lamp to reduce the EMI emission.

replace the I/O Dynamis TS board.

10.2.31. ERROR 37 – Overheated coolant! Temperature (bimetal) switch


activated!

This error message may appear if the the temperature swith is faulty and the
cooling liquid exceeds 65°C, or of the bimetal temperature switch is faulty.
Please note that there are two temperature switches in the temeprature switch
assembly immersed in the de-ionized water tank. The electronic temperature
switch trip point is set to 60°C. The Bimetal temperature swithc trip point is at 65°C.
 When the electronic tempeature switch is activated an advisory message
„Overheated coolant - Please wait to cool down!“ is generated. In this case do
not turn off the system but wait 5 to 8 minutes to for the cooling liquidf to cool
down by tghe action of heat exchangers and fans. The advisory message will
disapear and normal operation can be continued. This advisory message may
appear when the ambient temperature exceeds 29°C and the system operates
at full dissipation, or if the cooling air filters are blocked (clean or replace
them). Normally the ERROR 37 message will never appear because the trip
point is higher than for electronic temperature switch.
 If ERROR 37 message appears it usualy means that the bimetal temperature
swicth is faulty. In this case replace the complete temperature switch assembly
with a new one.

10.2.32. ERROR 38 – Capacitor bank discharge circuit error!

This error message may appear during selftest or during normal operation.
In selftest:
The system is checking if the discharge circuit is open. In case it is open for any
reasons it means that the capacitor bank cannot be discharged after the system is
turned off.
Since the capacitor bank is 15mF (for all models except model M002-2A where the
capacito bank is 10mF) and potentially charged to 800V and having a load
resistance of 1MOhm to 500 kOhm (from voltage dividers on the PFM41 assembly
and partly also on the discharge circuit), the capacitor bank may discharge from
800V slowly for several hours and represents a lethal danger for service
personnel.

WARNING
If this error message appears the service personnel should carefully check
the capacitor bank voltage and if necessary to discharge the capacitor bank
manually before attempting to replace the faulty Discharge circuit board.

Possible reasons are:


 The IGBT (V8) on the discharge circuit is faulty (non-conducting), or other
semiconductor components on the discharge circuit are faulty.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 162/187


In case of this error the discharge circuit must be replaced with a new one (Code
80455).
Before starting the replacement carefully check the capacitor bank voltage. If the
capacitor bank is not fully discharged, it should be discharged with wire wound 10
Ohm/100W resistor and the voltage checked on it.
In normal operation:
If this message appears in normal operation, it means that the discharge circuit is
activated and that the capacitor bank is all the time being discharged with a current
of max. 160mA.
Possible reasons are:
 The IGBT (V8) is faulty (conducting), or other semiconductor components on
the discharge circuit are faulty.
In case of this error the discharge circuit must be replaced with a new one (Code
80455).
Before starting the replacement carefully check the capacitor bank voltage. If the
capacitor bank is not fully discharged, it should be discharged with wire wound 10
Ohm/100W resistor and the voltage checked on it.

10.2.33. ERROR 42 - Capacitor bank voltage low <120V

This error message indicates that the capacitor bank voltage has dropped bellow
120V. Corresponding LED is OFF on the PFM41 CTRL PCB. Capacitor bank
voltage can be adjusted by using VOLTS the service program and can be checked
on the capacitor bank +, - terminals of the PFM.
Turn off the system according to instructions in operator manual and turn it on
again.
If the error message remains then:
 Check optical link OW 20 if it is properly attached in receptacle on the PFM
assembly.
 Check if optical link OW 16 is properly attached in receptacle on PFM
assembly and I/O PC104 assembly.
 The Charger is faulty.
 The PFM41 assembly is faulty.
 The IGBT is burned in conductive state therefor discharging the
capacitor bank through the flash lamp. This current is added to the
simmer current and it looks like a strong simmer current on the flash
lamp. Strong simmer like current is normalized if OW20 is removed and
charger is switched off.
 Safety discharge circuit is faulty. This should be normally detected by
another ERROR case but there is always a possibility of double fault
case.
 The PFM41 CTRL PCB does not detect and compare OW16 signal
correctly.
 The I/O PC104 assembly is faulty (there is no reference signal to OW16).

10.2.34 ERROR 262-267

In case of error codes in range from 262 to 267, please contact Fotona Service
staff for instructions how to proceed.

10.2.35. GUI SW integrity error! Please contact technical support!

This error message indicates that the GUI SW integrity error was detected. Please
contact Fotona Service staff for instructions how to proceed.

10.3. Malfunctions not reported by the system

10.3.1. The screen does not show anything after turning on the system

If no beep sounds from the system after turning it on:


 Check if the system power cord is OK (if mains voltage is supplied to the circuit
breaker inlet terminals).
 If not replace the power cord.
 If yes, then check if the main circuit breaker on the rear side of the
instrument is OK
 If not replace the main circuit breaker.
 If the circuit breaker is OK then:
 Check if the auxiliary power supply voltages of 24Vdc,
12Vdc and 5Vdc are OK (refer to wiring diagram). If
necessary replace the Auxiliary power supply with new
one.
 If the auxiliary power supplies are all OK then
check:
 If the connector, which is connecting the
screen to GUI Controller Computer, is
properly fixed.
 If the screen still does not show anything replace the complete LCD
Touchscreen assembly
 If the display still does not show anything replace the GUI Controller assembly.

10.3.2. The system does not respond to touchscreen

The possible reason could be:


 The Touchscreen controller cable lost its contacts on GUI Controller computer
serial port – check it
 Faulty LCD screen assembly – replace the complete Toucshscreen assembly.

10.3.3. The key switch does not respond

Check the key switch if it operates OK by checking it with an ohmmeter (you


should have to dismount the Front panel of the instrument – follow the instructions
in this manual) - refer to wiring diagram.
 If it is not, replace the key switch contact part, which is attached to the
mechanical part of the key switch.
 If the key switch is OK and the system still does not respond check the
connector X12 on I/O Dynamis TS board if it is properly attached to the board
 The I/O Dynamis TS board is faulty – replace it.

10.3.4. The system does not respond to the footswitch

Replace the complete footswitch with a new one.

94363_SM_Dynamis/Spectro line with Touchscreen_CE_USA_CAN_ENG_15 Page 164/187


NOTE
If wireless footswitch is used please check if the batteries in the footswitch
need to be replaced.

10.3.5. Calibration time for Er:YAG or Nd:YAG laser too long

This situation means that the laser needs too much laser shots to calibrate the
laser to the requested energy. During the lifetime of the laser system the flash lamp
is loosing its efficiency and consequently the laser also. For this reasons the:
 Values of Er:YAG laser I/O characteristics for the operation mode in which the
calibration is too long in Er:YAG Service/ Laser I/O setup has to be
corrected according to instructions already described in this manual (see
section 7.7).
 Values of Nd:YAG laser I/O characteristics for the pulsewidth in which the
calibration is too long in Nd:YAG Service/Laser I/O setup has to be corrected
according to instructions already described in this manual (see section 7.7).
By correcting them in a proper manner the laser calibration time can be optimized.

WARNING
To perform the optimization of calibration time for each laser complete
understanding of the I/O parameters for both lasers is needed. Do not
attempt to perform optimization if you are not sure what these parameters
mean.
Ask Fotona service staff for advice.

10.3.6. The expected treatment effect is weaker than usual

The beam deliveries or hand pieces are damaged or misaligned.


 Check the respective hand pieces or beam deliveries for damage or alignment.

10.3.7. Model G22 (G-Runner) Er:YAG Gynecological scanner malfunction

The Model G22 (G-Runner) Er:YAG GYnecologicla Scanner can be used only with
models which are incorporating an Er:YAG laser (i.e. M021-4AF/3 and M002-2A).
The Gynecological scanner is connected to the laser system footswitch connector
while the footswicth of the laser system is connected to G-Runner Iterface box. The
Gynecological scanner is not communicating with the laser system GUI or SYS
Controller. Its modes of operation must be manually matched with the selected
operation modes in laser syetem GUI. The G-Runner scanner when attached only
enables/disables the footswitch signal to laser system depending on the selected
mode of operation of the the scanner. For this resons a malfuction of model G22
Scanner is not reported on the laser system GUI.
The status of G-Runner Scanner is indicated by indicator lights in scanner
