2.106  8065751025Constellation® Vision SystemTHE CONSTELLATION CASSETTEThe cassette is the interface between the Constellation® console and the surgical handpiece. It is used to regulate BSS® irrigating fluid to the handpiece, aspirate debris from the handpiece, monitor irrigation and aspiration pressure, and deposit the debris in a sealed drainage bag for disposal. The premium combined cassette shown in Figure 2-84 is a consumable assembly capable of providing all the functions needed to perform anterior, posterior, and combined surgeries. It provides fluid aspiration and pressurized fluid (or filtered air) infusion to the eye at a constant IOP independent of aspiration flow rates during posterior segment surgery.  The infusion fluid source to the cassette can be changed during a procedure without interruption or re-priming the tubing connecting the cassette and the infusion cannula.Specialized cassettes for posterior and anterior procedures are available and have only those ports necessary to perform the associated procedure. See Consumbable Pak Configurations for detailed information on the type of cassette contained in each pak.Aspiration Port 1 (blue)(combined and posterior only)Aspiration Port 2(light blue)Irrigation Port (light green)(combined and anterior only)Infusion Port (green)(combined and posterior only)LPAS Port (white)(combined and posterior only)Infusion Source Port (red)Pressure Source Port (gray)Drain BagFigure 2-84  The Constellation® Combined Cassette

8065751025  3.1Constellation® Vision System SECTION THREEOPERATING INSTRUCTIONSINTRODUCTIONThis section details the recommended setup and operation for the Constellation® Vision System. These procedures may be modified to conform to hospital requirements and practices as you become experienced in using the system. The operational checks however, that are performed at various points in the setup procedure to verify instrument operation, must be performed exactly as indicated.The procedures are divided into two columns and presume a surgical team of three people: Surgeon and Scrub Nurse in the sterile field, and a Circulating Nurse in the non-sterile field. In the left column a directive is given; in the right column the responsible team member is identified.Any problems pertaining to setup and check-out procedures should first be directed to the Troubleshooting section of this manual. If questions still exist, contact the Alcon Technical Services Department or your local Alcon representative.POWER UP SEQUENCE  When the power switch is turned on, and the standby switch is pressed, the Constellation® Vision System logo screen appears while the system performs its self-test diagnostics. The system is capable of detecting and reporting a wide range of fault and error conditions. Many of these are checked during the power up procedure. If a fault is detected during power up, the user is informed and the instrument becomes non-operational until the failure/problem is corrected. Upon successful completion of the self-tests, the system enters the setup screen.
