Name the RASA joint that provides the registration yaw (dock) angle during setup

SA_J3

What type(s) of electrosurgical energy can currently be used on the system robotically?

Monopolar and Bipolar energy

What types of sensors are on the input devices for hand detect?

1. IR sensor on back of hand controller

2. Encoder in finger lever

At least one has to be active to get into and stay in tele-operation

What size trocars do we currently use with the system?

8mm (wristed instruments)

11mm (endoscope)

Which joints in the RASA use stepper motors (as opposed to electromagnetic brakes)?

RA_J1, RA_J2, SA_J4, RA_J5 (Z-Slide)

Which joints in the RASA use electromagnetic brakes (as opposed to stepper motors)?

SA_J1, SA_J2, SA_J3

Which component on the surgeon console is responsible for the overlay of the GUI on the 3D/2D image?

Video Scalar

What do the green LEDs on the ACAs indicate?

“Safe to Unbrake” - Cart is currently braked and undocked

True or False: The setup guide indicates where to place the tower, surgeon console, and ACAs in the surgical field?

False, the setup guides do not indicate where to place the surgeon console.

True or False: The Hugo system requires a direct connection to the hospital network?

False

True or False: The DS1 requires a direct connection to the hospital network?

True

How many serviceable PCBA stacks are located in the RASA?

4 (SA_J123, SA_J4, RA_J12, RA_J5)

True or False: We perform preventative FRU replacements based on clinical procedure count?

True

How often do we perform the system PM?

Every 6 months

Which joints on the RASA do not have motors or brakes, and are instead maintained by tungsten cables?

RA_J3 and RA_J4

What does the RCM stand for and what is its function?

Robotic center of motion. The RCM is the point in space we define when we setup the arms around the bed. It is an exact point in space (noted by the thick black band on the trocar), around which the robotic arm joints pivot during tele-robotic surgery.

What is the purpose of the REM pad?

It is a return electrode pad when using monopolar energy on the FT10, to allow the energy to complete its circuit and return safely to the FT10.

When replacing the RASA, why do we place the shipping bolts in the column?

To lock the counterweight stack for safety. Prevents the counterweight from accidentally being moved (without the weight of the RASA - the counterweight can damage the cart or cause personal injury if moved)

When replacing the SAFETY computer on the tower, which software steps does the FSE need to perform?

Hint: The SAFETY computer is one of the ESAT nodes for the tower.

Software and Language. Any computer or circuit board on the system that stores software appears in ESAT as a node. If we replace any of these parts, we will always need to redeploy software and language to that HLA.

What file format are the logs when the FSE pulls them from ESAT, and what file format do we convert them to when post-processing?

.TGZ (from the ORTI), and .JSON (after post-processing)

Which logs must be uploaded to Hugo Connect?

ALL clinical logs must be uploaded to Hugo Connect

True or False: RECAP requires an internet connection to use?

False

What is the purpose of the sensor on the port latch?

To detect when a drape and port are attached.

How many ergonomic motors are there on the surgeon console?

4 (2 for armrest, 1 for 3D monitor, 1 for foot pedal plate)

What is the function of the hall-effect sensor in the cart base?

It is a magnetic sensor that detects when the cart brake is active.

What is the behavior of the system when the FDC (fault detection circuit) is triggered?

The Fault Detection Circuit (FDC) checks for electrical safety and will shut the affected ACA off if it detects an Ethercat fault. When the FDC is repeatedly triggered, it creates a fault record file on the e-box of the ACA, which needs to be cleared with an ESAT script.

Which site does the FSE go to when they require troubleshooting support from GRSS?

The Issue Escalation Tracker on Teams
