The audio levels stated below are for activation tones (cut, Valleylab, coag, bipolar, and LigaSure Modes) and alarm tones (REM and system alarms) at a distance of one meter.

Volume (adjustable): 45 to 65 dBA
Frequency Cut: -660 Hz
- Valleylab: 800 Hz.
- Coag: 940 Hz.
- Bipolar: 940 Hz.
- LigaSure: 440 Hz.
Duration: Continuous while the system is activated.

Volume (adjustable): >65 dBA.
Frequency: -REM: 660 Hz.
- Regrassp: Two tones: High= 985 Hz, Low = 780 Hz.
- Seal Complete: 985 Hz.
- Error/System Alert: Beep tone = 1400 Hz.
- Duration:
  - REM: Two 1/2 second tones separated by 1/2 second for each REM event
  - Reactivate/Regrassp: Four 175 msec tones-high, low, high–low separated by 1/2 second.
  - Check Instrument: Six 175 msec tones – high, low, high low, high, low -Seal Complete: Two 175 msec tones separated by 175 msec for each Seal Complete event.
  - Error/System Alert: Two 1/2 second tones separated by 1/2 second for each Error/ System Alert event.

REM resistance measurements are ± 10% during RF activation and ± 5% when RF output is not activated.
REM patient return electrode: 5 to 135 ohms or up to a 40% increase in the initial measured contact resistance (whichever is less).
If the measured resistance is outside the acceptable range(s) noted above, a REM fault condition occurs.

REM patient return electrode: When the measured resistance exceeds the standard range of safe resistance (below 5 ohms or above 135 ohms) or when the initially measured contact resistance increases by 40% (whichever is less), the REM alarm indicator enlarges and flashes red and yellow, a tone sounds twice, and RF output is disabled. The indicator remains illuminated red and yellow until you correct the condition causing the alarm. Then, the indicator illuminates green and RF output is enabled.

The ForceTriad energy platform is equipped with an autobipolar feature that allows for the automatic activation of bipolar energy.
Note: The autobipolar electrode function requires the use of the Valleylab E0018 bipolar Instrument cord.
Autobipolar Specificaitons:
- Interrogation frequency: 80 kHz ± 10 kHz.
- Interrogation current: < 100 μA.
- Activation impedance: 20 Ω to 500.
- Deactivation impedance: User selectable: 1,500 Ω 1,800 Ω or 2,200 Ω.
- Measurement accuracy: ± 14% of Full Scale activation impedance while keying active above 10 watts.
- + 50%, -14% of full-scale activation impedance while keying active at 10 watts or below.
- ± 5% of Full-Scale activation impedance while keying inactive.
- Keying delay: User selectable in 500 msec increments from 0 sec to 2.5 sec

Under maximum power settings and rated load conditions, the ForceTriad energy platform is capable of operating a duty cycle of 25% defined as 10 seconds active and 30 seconds inactive, in any mode for a period of 4 hours.
Caution
- Use of duty cycles greater than 25% (10 seconds active followed by 30 seconds inactive) will increase the risk that heat build-up under a return electrode may be high enough to injure the patient. Do not continuously activate for longer than one minute.
