Remote interlock isused with a door switch toprevent unintentional entry.
Once the door is opened,the interlock circuit triggers and the laser emission
is immediately shut off. The interlock connector used byiM3 Veterinary
Dental Laser is a standard 3.5mm audio jack. To usethisfunction,
connect the remote interlock cable tothe door switch and plug itinto the
interlock socket located at the back ofthe base unit. The door switch
should be anormally closed switch.Therefore, the interlock circuit can be
cut when the door is opened, and then the laser emission is interrupted with
an error message appears on the screen. Toclear this error, please close
the door andpress “Clear” button on the screen.
NOTE
: If you don’t need this feature, don’t connect the interlock
cable to the base unit.
2.4.3. Install FastFiber Tip

PG 14
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
2.4.6. Turn on the iM3 Veterinary Dental Laser To access
the SOLASE VET App:
1) Turn on the power switch of the base unit and the green status indicator
on the front panel will light.
2) The laser starts to self-check, which may last for more than 30 seconds.
Please wait patiently. After successful self-check, the device will ask
you to enter a 4-digit password. If you forget the password, please
contact us or our authorized service representative to reset the
password.
NOTE
: The factory default password is “0000”. To change your
password, refer to section 4.4.4.
2.4.7. Use Aiming Beam to Check the Integrity of the Delivery System
As the aiming beam passes down the same delivery system as the working
beam, it provides a good way of checking the integrity of the delivery system.
Figure 3.11 Aiming beam spot emitted from good fiber compares with that
from bad fiber
Place the distal end of the laser handpiece perpendicular to a piece of white
paper at distance of 5-10 mm. Turn on the aiming beam and adjust it to
maximum brightness. The visible light should be transmitted from the
handpiece, and a well-formed round spot should appear. If the spot is not
round in shape or its density is reduced, the beam delivery system may be
defective. Replace the laser delivery system and try again. If problems still

PG 15
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
exist, please contact us or our representative for assistance.
WARNING
: Never emit the laser if the aiming beam is not present
or has a significantly different shape.
2.4.8. Enter READY Mode
Press “READY” button and the laser gets into the READY mode. The status
indicator will show orange light. Now you can activate laser by pressing
wireless footswitch.
NOTE:
STANDBY mode: The laser is not capable of emitting the working
beam even if the wireless footswitch is activated.
READY mode: The READY mode keeps the laser equipment
enabled so that it is capable of emitting laser when the wireless
footswitch is activated.
2.4.9. Activate Laser by Pressing Wireless Footswitch
In READY mode, the laser is activated when the wireless footswitch pressed,
with a beeping sound indicating that the laser energy is present, and the
orange status indicator begins flashing. Release the footswitch, the laser
stops and the beeping sound disappears. To re-adjust the laser parameters,
please press the "STANDBY" button to back into “STANDBY” mode firstly.
2.4.10. Tip Initiation
Soft tissue has a weak absorption for wavelength of 600-1300nm. The laser
energy cannot be well absorbed by the soft tissue and cannot reach the

PG 16
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
temperature required for cutting when using 810nm or 980nm laser. So,
when lasers are used in contact mode to make an incision or excise soft
tissue, they often need “initiation” of the laser tip end. An energy absorbing
material is used to absorb the emitted laser and is rapidly heated to several
hundred degrees. This “hot tip” is used to melt proteins thus separating the
tissue.
The “initiation” steps are as follows: Prepare a dark paper (such as
articulating paper), move the end of the fiber tip gently on the paper with the
laser power set to 0.7W CW. The tip end will retain the pigment of the paper.
Observe the aiming beam against a surface. If it is still clearly visible, repeat
more times.
Actually, the tip initiation by articulating paper or wood is not satisfied, as the
pigmentation in the tip end is quickly burned off during laser surgery,
resulting in a decrease of cutting efficiency. The operators have to initiate the
tip again and again to continue the operation.
We have developed a new pre-initiated tip with durable, peel-resistant black
coating. The specially crafted coating withstands high temperature during
laser cutting of up to hundreds of degrees, ensuring a smooth and fast
surgical treatment.
NOTE:
Protein has a strong absorption for 450nm laser, so there is no
need to initiate the tip when using this wavelength.
2.4.11. Emergency Stop
In case of emergency, press the red Emergency Stop button to turn off the
laser emission immediately. A beeping sound will appear, and the status
