GFI® Timing
The GFI® PCB set has a dedicated timer that has been
designed to perform the following functions:
• Manual start/stop
• Automatic start/stop
• Manual reset (returns time displayed to 00:00). This is
conditional — for details, read the following:
Manual Start/Stop
The Timer Start/Stop key on the front panel allows the user to
start or stop the clock when the delivered pressure is less than
60 mmHg. If the delivered pressure is ≥60 mmHg, pressing
this key has no effect—the clock continues to increment.
The following is in effect when the delivered pressure is

<60 mmHg: The control is a toggle action, therefore if the
clock is running when the Timer Start/Stop key is pressed, the
clock will stop. To start the clock again without resetting the
time displayed, the user need only press this Timer Start/Stop
key.

SERVICE TEST PROCEDURE
GENERAL INFORMATION
This section of the service manual is reserved for storage of

the Universal Fragmatome® Service Test Procedure and
checklist.
Each time a service engineer visits a customer it is required

that he perform a system checkout on the customer's Alcon
equipment. The checkout is performed by following
instructions written in the Service Test Procedure, then
returning its associated checklist to the local service support
center for filing.
The Service Test Procedure for the Universal Fragmatome® is

an independent document with its own part number (78.40.500),
and can be ordered from the local service support center.

CLEAN LIGHT SOURCE COMPONENTS
The lamps, focusing lenses, and fiber optic cables on the

Lamp PCB can be cleaned with rubbing alcohol and a cotton
swab.
CAUTION
The power supply is located directly below the Lamp PCB.

There is a risk of shorting out the power supply by spilling
liquid onto high voltage circuitry. Prior to cleaning the
light source components, place a tissue or rag below the
Lamp PCB to protect power supply from any spilled
liquid.
