The same 3-Button Pencil works with or without the optional footswitch. Simply plug in the optional footswitch and you are ready to go! Not only is the Bovie footswitch much more cost effective, but you don't need to replace the handpiece like you do on the competitor's device. The user has complete control including up/down power from the handpiece as well as activation... you have neither with the competition. Not only more user-friendly, but this saves you money too! IT'S YOUR CHOICE. Foot control handpiece and footswitch are sold separately and are both required for the ConMed foot control option.
Additionally, the Hyfrecator's setup is much more complicated. "Time is money" and the six cumbersome steps it takes to change the *Hyfrecator 2000 from the 3-button handpiece to foot control can deplete both these valuable assets. Also note that the 6-steps must be reversed in order to go back to 3-button handpiece control.A) POWER SWITCHTurn the unit power on utilizing the switch on the left side panel of the unit.B) POWER OUTPUT DIALSet the power output either by using the dial on the left side of the unit or by the up and down buttons on the handpiece (F). When power level adjustment is being made by the handpiece an audible tone will sound to indicate that the power level has been changed. Depressing and holding the up or down buttons will cause the power settings to change more rapidly for quick adjustment of the output settings. Power output is displayed in ".1" watt increments from 0.1 to 10 watts.C) ACTIVE LIGHTWhen the unit is activated, an audible tone is sounded and the blue active light will illuminate.D)STANDARD ELECTRODESlide the standard electrode into the handpiece until it is firmly seated. The handpiece will accept most standard 3/32" electrodes.
