Abstract
A system and method for operating a touchscreen of a gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator. The generator has a display module and a primary controller. The display module has a plurality of touch sensors, a PCB power relay and a CPU. The method comprises selecting electrosurgery settings through a graphical user interface, activating through an input device plasma delivery from the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator, disabling the plurality of touch sensors through software running on the primary controller, disconnecting power from the plurality of touch sensors with the PCB power relay in response to the disabling of the plurality of touch sensors, applying power to an electrode in the plasma accessory connected to the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator, and de-activating through an input device plasma delivery from the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator to the plasma accessory connected to the gas-enhanced electrosurgical generator.
