IMPORTANT NOTICE

Equipment improvement is an on-going process and, as such, changes may be made to the equipment

after this manual is printed.

Pay close attention to WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in this manual. WARNINGS are written to

protect individuals from bodily harm. CAUTIONS are written to protect the instrument from damage.

Illustrations contained in this manual are for reference only.

It is recommended that maintenance be performed by a qualified Alcon Field Engineer.

Alcon Surgical shall not be liable for any damage resulting from failure to comply with the enclosed

instructions.

Operator Profile

The Constellation Vision System is designed to be operated by two basic groups; surgeons and

nurses/scrub techs. The surgeon focus is primarily constrained to the footswitch and display panel.

The design of the footswitch allows the surgeon to map any function to any switch position,

assuming the function is valid in a particular scenario. The display screen was designed to mount

on an articulating arm to allow optimum placement of the display so the surgeon can reference it at

any time. The design also incorporated items specifically for nurses and scrub techs, who routinely

control the machine via the front panel and remote control. The design incorporates color coding on

all connectors and tubing to facilitate easy identification of the ports. In addition, the graphical user

interface closely resembles controls commonly found on web sites, which this operator profile is

expected to be highly proficient at using.

CAUTION

U.S. Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician only.

WARNINGS!

For systems containing the optional laser module: Use of controls or adjustments, or

performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous

laser radiation exposure.

A qualified technician must perform a visual inspection of the following components

every twelve months. In case of a deficiency, do not use the system; call Alcon Technical

Services.

— Warning Labels

— Power Cord

— Fuses

A qualified technician must check ground continuity and both polarities for leakage

current every twelve months to ensure they are within the applicable standard (for

example: EN 60601-1/IEC 601-1). Values must be recorded, and if they are above the

applicable standard, or 50% above your first measurement, do not use the system; call

Alcon Technical Services.

Use of accessories and cables other than those provided may result in increased

emissions or decreased immunity of the system. Portable and mobile RF

communications equipment can affect this medical electrical equipment.

SECTION ONE

GENERAL INFORMATION

Introduction

The Constellation® Vision System is a multifunctional surgical tool for use in anterior

and posterior segment ophthalmic surgeries. The product’s capabilities include

driving a variety of handpieces that provide the ability to cut vitreous and tissues,

emulsify the lens, illuminate the posterior segment of the eye, and apply diathermy to

stop bleeding. Vacuum is used to remove ocular matter from the eye and is provided

by connecting tubing from the handpiece to a port on the fluidics cassette. Irrigation/

infusion capability is provided to replace fluid in the eye, and enters the eye directly

via either an infusion cannula or flows through a handpiece. The graphical operator

interface is menu driven. The operator provides inputs using the touchscreen panel,

the remote control, voice commands, and the footswitch.

System Installation

In the USA contact the Alcon Technical Services Department for uncrating and

installation at (800) 832-7827. Outside the USA contact your local Alcon affiliate.

Source Air Pressure Requirements

The Constellation® Vision System

is designed to operate using different levels of

source air pressure. The system operates automatically with pressures of 58 (4 bar) to

120 psi (8.3 bar). Between 4 bar and 5 bar, vacuum performance is reduced. Between

4 bar and 5.5 bar, VFC inject performance is reduced.

Accessory equipment connected to or used with this equipment must be certified

according to the respective IEC Standard (e.g., IEC 60950 for data processing

equipment, and IEC 60601-1 for medical equipment). The Constellation® is shipped

with English and metric air fittings compliant with EN739:1998. Anyone connecting

additional equipment or otherwise causing a different system configuration than

provided by Alcon is responsible for continued compliance to the requirements

of System Standard IEC 60601-1-1. If in doubt, consult the Technical Services

department or your local Alcon representative.

Settings Restoration

When a loss of power occurs, the Constellation® Vision System retains its current

settings and mode in memory. When power is reestablished a System Information

popup window appears asking:

«Do you want to restore the system’s previous settings and mode?»

The user can press Yes to restore the previous settings, or No to enter the default

settings. Disconnecting the power cord, or turning the system off using the rear panel

power switch, is considered a loss of power; using the rear panel standby switch is

not.

Environmental Issues

Follow local governing ordinances and recycling plans regarding disposal or

recycling of device components.

WARNINGS!

Laser: There are potential hazards when inserting, steeply bending, or improperly

securing the fiberoptic. Not following the recommendations of the manufacturer

may lead to damage of the fiber or delivery system and/or harm to the patient or

user.

Since the aiming beam passes down the same delivery system as the treatment

beam, it provides a good method of checking the integrity of the delivery system.

If the aiming beam spot is not present at the distal end of the delivery system,

or its intensity is reduced or it looks diffused, this a possible indication of a

damaged or not properly working delivery system. If there is any doubt, contact

Alcon Technical Services.

The use of flammable anesthetics or oxidizing gases such as nitrous oxide (N2O)

and oxygen should be avoided. Some materials — for example cotton wool when

saturated with oxygen — may be ignited by the high temperatures produced in normal

use of the laser equipment. The solvents of adhesives and flammable solutions

used for cleaning and disinfecting should be allowed to evaporate before the laser

equipment is used. There is also danger of ignition of endogenous gases.

User Information — Environmental Considerations

The equipment that you have purchased requires the use of natural resources for its

production. This equipment may also contain hazardous substances which could have

potential effect on the environment and human health if disposed of improperly.

In order to avoid the entry of any such substances into our environment and to

promote natural resource conservation, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-

back systems. Such take-back systems reuse or recycle many of the materials in your

end-of-life equipment in a beneficial way. Please contact your local Alcon office for

assistance in take-back options through Alcon or other providers.

The crossed-bin symbol located on this equipment reminds you to use take-back

unintended increase of output power.

Listed below are general precautions to be followed when using the Diathermy function:

• To ensure safe operation of the

Diathermy

function, only approved cables and

accessories must be used (See your Alcon representative).

Diathermy

performance

can be guaranteed only when using Alcon components or Alcon-endorsed

components.

• To reduce the risk of accidental burns, caution should always be taken when

operating high-frequency surgical equipment.

• Interference produced by the operation of high-frequency surgical equipment may

adversely influence the operation of other electronic equipment.

• Accessories should be checked regularly; electrode cables should particularly be

checked for possible damage to the insulation.

• The lowest power level in

Diathermy

step should always be selected for the

intended purpose.

• Skin-to-skin contact (for example between the arms and body of the patient)

should be avoided, for example by insertion of dry gauze.

• When HF (high frequency) surgical equipment and physiological monitoring

equipment are used simultaneously on the same patient, any monitoring

electrodes should be placed as far as possible from the surgical electrodes. Needle

monitoring electrodes are not recommended.

• In all cases, monitoring systems incorporating high frequency current-limiting

devices are recommended.

• The cables to the surgical electrodes should be positioned in such a way that

contact with the patient or other leads is avoided.

• Temporarily unused active electrodes should be stored so that they are isolated

from the patient.

8065751025 1.17

Constellation® Vision System

• The use of flammable anaesthetics or oxidizing gases such as nitrous oxide (N2O)

and oxygen should be avoided if a surgical procedure is carried out in the region

of the thorax or the head, unless these agents are sucked away.

•

Non-flammable agents should be used for cleaning and disinfection wherever possible.

• Flammable agents used for cleaning or disinfecting, or as solvents of adhesives,

should be allowed to evaporate before the application of HF surgery. Some

materials, for example cotton, wool and gauze, when saturated with oxygen may

be ignited by sparks produced in normal use of the HF surgical equipment.

Illuminator Function

Housed inside Constellation® tabletop, the illuminator provides two channels of

illumination from a single xenon arc lamp. Two front panel sockets accept ACMI

compatible fiber optic light guides to provide intraocular illumination.

When installed, an optional illuminator is housed inside Constellation® base and

provides two channels of illumination from a single xenon arc lamp.

To gain access for bulb replacement or servicing, follow directions in section four of

this manual. Be aware that using the illuminator at high settings will reduce the life of

the bulbs.

WARNING!

The illuminator bulbs become extremely hot. Never handle a bulb until it has

cooled considerably from its operating temperature. Do not touch bulb directly

with fingers at any time.

The bulb of the xenon lamp is under constant high pressure. There is a risk it may

burst with explosive force if knocked or damaged. Protective measures:

— Keep the lamp in its protective sleeve at all times during installation

— If you are handling the lamp without its protective sleeve, always wear safety

goggles, a face mask, gauntlets with wrist protectors and a breast protector.
