sol smarT PreseTs
SOL is delivered with five laser output settings programmed
into the Default Mode when the system is turned
ON and Four Preset Procedure Keys; Cut, Debride,
Periodontal and Custom. These settings are typical for the
corresponding procedures with a diode laser. All five can be
reprogrammed with your favorite CW output from .10 to 3.0
watts in .10 watt increments or Pulse output from .10 to 5.0
watts in .10 watt increments. The Default Mode when the
system is turned ON provides the fastest way to start lasing.
After turning the system ON use the default power setting,

or adjust, press READY and start lasing. SOL is smart and
remembers the last mode (CW or Pulse) and power setting
so the next time the system is powered up it returns to your
most commonly used or Favorite Setting.
