Product Description and Intended Use
The Stryker Wireless Universal footswitch system is a wireless remote-control
system that centralizes control of the various footswitch-operated devices found
in the operating room.
The iSwitch is intended for use in surgical procedures where footswitch-operated
devices, such as the Stryker TPS or SERFAS systems, are normally used. The
iSwitch consolidates the functions of these devices into one wireless footswitch,
freeing the operating room from excessive cables and foot controls.
The iSwitch consists of two main components:
1. A wireless footswitch, which provides pedals similar to those found on other footswitches and transmits radio signals to a radio receiver console
2. A radio receiver console, which routes commands from the footswitch to devices that connect to the receiver’s rear panel.
Each component and its functions are described in the following pages.
Note The iSwitch is a wireless footswitch designed to replace multiple
wired footswitches that surgeons are accustomed to using.
Operators should ensure that they are completely familiar and
comfortable with the operation of the device. Training may be
required before some operators are thoroughly familiar with how
to properly operate the footswitch. Users should be sure that they
have received adequate training before using this device in
surgical practice.
Note It is recommended to have a wired footswitch available in case of
electromagnetic interference problems with the wireless
connection.
This device includes RF transmitters and emits non-ionizing radiation.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation. See the “Electromagnetic Compatibility” section of this manual for more information.
To prevent radio interference with any licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding.
This device complies with FCC RF exposure limits set for indoor use only. Do not colocate this device in close proximity to another transmitter antenna.

The Footswitch
The footswitch rests on the operating-room floor and provides foot control of all
devices connected to the iSwitch system. The footswitch houses three buttons
and two pedals, which enable the user to alternate between operating-room
devices and perform device-specific functions. When a button or pedal is pressed,
the footswitch transmits a radio signal to the receiver, where the command is then
routed to the appropriate device.
The footswitch and its features are described in Figure 2 below.

2. Button II (Mode Button): Selects which device the footswitch will control. See the “System Settings” section of this manual for Mode options.
Note Button/pedal function for all other buttons and pedals depends
on which operating-room device, or “mode,” is selected. See the
“Using the footswitch controls” section in this manual for devicespecific button functions.

The Receiver
The receiver connects to the devices that will be controlled by the iSwitch system.
It receives commands sent from the footswitch and routes them to the appropriate
device. The receiver also determines how footswitches are used and which devices
they will control.
The features of the receiver are listed in Figures 4 and 5.

1. Power Switch: Powers on and off the receiver. The switch will illuminate when the unit is on.
2. Synchronize port 1: Enables a footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 1.”
3. Mode button 1: Selects which device footswitch 1 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch.
4. Active-device display 1: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 1 (which “mode” footswitch 1 is in).
5. Active-device display 2: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 2 (which “mode” footswitch 2 is in).
6. Mode button 2: Selects which device footswitch 2 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch
7. Synchronize port 2: Enables a second footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 2.”

1. TPS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the TPS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the TPS console.
2. SERFAS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the SERFAS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the SERFAS console.
3. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
4. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
5. SFB Serial Connectors: Enables firewire connection with newer devices, such as CORE and SERFAS Energy, eliminating the need for multiple connection cables.
6. Volum e cont r o l: Controls the output volume.
7. AC-power input: Connects to the AC Power cord, which connects to a hospital-grade power outlet.
