other risks. If the system malfunctions, return it for service immediately.
It is recommended that personnel study this manual before attempting to operate, clean, and/ or sterilize the Linvatec 3CCD Digital Camera System (IM3300, IM3301) and accessories. The safe and effective use of this equipment requires the understanding of and compliance with all warnings, cautionary notices, and instructions marked on the product, and included in this manual.
1.1
Do not use camera with incompatible equipment or accessories that are not authorized by ConMed Linvatec. Doing so may void certifications and/or warranties.
4.
Prior to each use, the controller and all associated equipment must be inspected for proper operation. Visually inspect lenses to assure there are no scratches, chips or cracks.
5.
Do not expose controller to moisture, operate in wet areas, or place liquids on or above controller.
6.
Do not excessively bend or kink the instrument power cord.
7.
The scope tip can get extremely hot as a result of high intensity light and can cause severe burns.
8.
Handle all equipment carefully. If controller or camera head is dropped or damaged in any way, return it immediately for service.
9.
If the camera head is damaged in any way, or cable or connector jacket are cut, do not autoclave camera head, or immerse camera head in liquid (water, chemical disinfectants or sterilants, etc.). Notify your ConMed Linvatec Sales Representative.
Intended Use
The Linvatec 3CCD Digital Camera System is intended to provide video capabilities in a variety of endoscopic surgical procedures, including but not limited to, orthopedic, laparoscopic, urologic, sinuscopic, plastic and as an accessory for microscopic surgery.

General Warnings and Cautions
1.
This equipment is designed for use by medical professionals completely familiar with the required techniques and instructions for use of the equipment. Read and follow all warning and cautionary notices and instructions marked on the product and included in this manual.
2.
Do not attempt to open or service controller chassis while under warranty, as this may void your warranty. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Removing the cover may introduce an electric shock hazard by exposing you to dangerous high voltages or
10. Store camera head and all accessories in a protective container to prevent damage during storage. Do not store controller where it will be exposed to temperatures in excess of 122F (+ 50°C). 11. Do not use in presence of flammable anesthetics, gases, disinfecting agents,

installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to other device(s) in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to other devices, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
cleaning solutions, or any material susceptible to ignition due to electrical sparking. 12. After each use, thoroughly clean unit and accessories (See “3.1 Cleaning and Sterilizing” on page 22). 13. Disconnect product prior to applying cardiac defibrillation to patient. 14. Equipment grounding is vital for safe operation. Plug power cord into a properly earthed mains supply outlet whose voltage and frequency characteristics are compatible with those listed on unit or in this manual. Do not use plug adapters or extension cords; such devices defeat the safety ground and could cause injury.
(a) Reorient or relocate the receiving device. (b) Increase the separation between the equipment.
15. External equipment, that will be connected to signal input and signal output ports or other connectors, shall comply with relevant IEC standard (i.e., IEC 950 for IT equipment and IEC 601 series for medical electrical equipment). In addition, all such combinations - systems - shall comply with the standard IEC 601-1-1 (Safety requirements for medical electrical systems).
(c) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the other devices are connected. (d) Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for help. This unit was not evaluated for use with electrosurgical devices which access the site via the same endoscope as the light source and camera. The unit must be reevaluated prior to use with electrosurgical devices when they will operate through the same endoscope as the light source and camera.
Any person who connects external equipment to signal input and signal output ports or other connectors has formed a system and is therefore responsible for the system to comply with the requirements of IEC 601-1-1. If in doubt, contact a qualified technician or your local representative. 16. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical devices to the IEC 60601-1 and EN606011-2. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical

2.0 SYSTEM INSTALLATION and OPERATION
2.1
Installation
NOTE: For various system configurations, reference Figures 2-1 through 2-5 on the following pages. Figures shown indicate connections for S-Video and RGB setups. The same connections may be used for non-S video setups as depicted by the S-Video configurations, but use BNC cables and route to appropriate VIDEO connectors. 1.
Attach the AC power cord to the controller receptacle and a standard grounded wall outlet.
2.
Connect the appropriate video cables (SVideo, BNC or RGB) to the corresponding output connectors on the rear of the controller.
3.
Connect the other end of the video cables to the corresponding connectors (S-Video to S-Video, BNC to BNC or RGB to RGB) on the monitor and/or any other peripheral equipment.
4.
Utilizing the remote cable allows activation of either a recorder or printer from the camera head buttons. Connect the remote cable (supplied) to the appropriate remote outlet on the rear of the camera controller, then to the appropriate remote outlet on the recorder and printer.

(d) Hold the scope tip steady and press the controller “White Balance” button or the camera head button (camera head button will only activate white balance if a “Push Camera Head Button” message appears on the monitor screen). During white balance a “White Balancing” message displays.
Displaying Color Bars
Color bars test pattern allows the user to match the color between the camera controller and the monitor. To activate the color bar test pattern, do one of the following: 1 - Turn the controller power on without a camera head installed, OR,
When white balance is completed successfully a “White Balance Complete” message displays.
2 - If a camera head is connected and the power is on, unplug the camera head.
2.1.2
If white balance is not completed successfully a “White Balance Not Completed” message displays. Check your setup and try again.
White Balance Operation
Various video system components can affect the color temperature of light transmitted to the surgical site. It is important to assemble the entire video endoscopic system; camera head (and coupler if applicable) endoscope, light source and light guide before white balancing the controller. If any equipment in the video endoscopic system changes, repeat white balancing. 1.
NOTE: White balance default at start-up is the last used setting.
To white balance the camera controller: (a) Set the light source brightness to the preferred setting. (b) Using a stack of 4x4 white gauze, hold the tip of the scope approximately one inch away from the gauze. (c) Using the camera brightness control buttons, adjust the light intensity to a uniform level over the entire image on the monitor (no glaring) so the picture is of nominal brightness to the user.

If “Presets Menu” or “Button Menu” are selected, their associated menus will display.
3.
Selecting Shutter will allow the user to turn the auto shutter on or off. (a) The automatic shutter control eliminates the need to manually adjust the light source brightness since brightness is controlled through the camera controller. With auto shutter on, the controller’s circuitry is set to automatic-gain shutter operation. The camera controller now controls the brightness and automatically compensates for varying lighting environments to obtain the highest quality image possible. With the auto shutter off, the controller’s circuitry is set to a fixed 1/60 second exposure. The light source must be manually adjusted to vary the amount of light if the auto shutter is off.
