Navigation in the main menu
With a long press of the button (≥2 seconds), the
main menu opens and is displayed on the screen.
Use the relevant buttons to navigate to the
desired item in the menu or submenu.
Profiles
Profiles are preinstalled camera settings, optimized for the application.
There are 5 standard profiles available:
■
LAP General Surgery
■
LAP Uro
■
LAP Gyn
■
Neuro
■
Cardio/Thoracic
Image setting
The image display can be changed manually for the set profile. These
changes are retained until the next time the type of camera head or profile
is changed.
The following setting options are available:
■
Brightness (-5 to +5 / increments of: 1)
■
Digital zoom (1 to 1.8 / increments of: 0.2)
■
Contrast (-5 to +5 / increments of: 1)
■
Edge enhancement (-5 to +5 / increments of: 1)
Effects
Effects can be added to the set profile, which can improve the displayed
image under certain conditions of use.
The following effects are available:
■
Red Enhancement (RE): Red Enhancement intensifies red color tones
and enables a better visual distinction of different structures in envi-
ronments with little differences in color, e.g., to accentuate the colors
of vessels.
■
Smoke Reduction (SR): Smoke Reduction produces a clearer picture in
smoky environments and therefore a better view (e.g. during coagula-
tion with high frequency surgical devices).
■
Picture out of Picture (PoP): PoP is not an image effect in itself but
it splits the screen into two equal image areas for the same camera
image. The reduced-size original image from the camera is displayed on
the left and the reduced-size image with an effect is displayed on the
right. With PoP, you can compare the original image with the image
with an applied effect and choose between the different effects.
■
Status indicators on screen: The currently activated image settings
are displayed on the top right of the screen in the status area.
Note
The "Red Enhancement" and "Smoke Reduction" effects can be combined.

Favorites
Depending on the profile and connected camera head, the device offers a
pre-defined selection of functions as favorites for quick access.
The favorites in the standard profiles cannot be changed. If user profiles
are created, the favorites can then also be individually defined.
Control buttons on the front of the device
The four control buttons on the front of the device in the shape of a cross
have different functions depending on the operating mode.
The assignment of button functions is always the same on the front of the
device and on the camera head.
Different functions can be assigned for a short press of the button
(<2 seconds) and a long press of the button (≥2 seconds).
Button assignment in live mode
The button assignment in live mode depends on whether a standard profile
or user profile is set.
If a user profile is set, the buttons can be assigned individually, however
the assignment for entering the menu cannot be changed.
In standard profile, the buttons are assigned as follows:
Short press of button
No function
Zoom
Light source on
Single frame image
Note
The camera control unit does not have an internal memory. Video and
image recordings are only possible if an external documentation device is
connected.
Long press of button
Open menu
White balance
Light source on/off
Video recording start/stop
