Key Features & Enhancements

Support Stand and Base Structure

  • EMC Filter Board: Filters AC power noise, improving resistance to electromagnetic interference.
  • Power Distribution Board: Provides efficient power management and stable distribution to RSM-8 and RSM-16 motors, designed to handle sudden high current loads.
  • Boom Arm & Brakes: Equipped with electromechanical brakes that lock automatically when handles are released, ensuring stability during surgeries.
  • M12 High-Power Cable: Utilizes an M12 cable to transmit high power to the microscope, supporting illumination, motor movements, and power delivery to other connected devices.

Remote Controller

  • Controller: Dedicated pedals for fine focus and zoom, and a joystick for XY unit navigation.
  • Rechargeable Battery: Built-in battery automatically recharges when docked on the floor stand.
