Application: Method for operating an electrosurgical generator and electrosurgical generator (Patent ID: US20240206949A1)
The patent filed by Olympus Corp. describes a method for operating an electrosurgical generator that supplies power to an electrosurgical instrument. The generator is identifiable by a serial number and consists of at least two modules, which can be hardware and/or software modules. Each module operates based on an operation mode specified by a license key. During the initialization process, identification and license information is made available to the modules, which then generate links of this information and store them for validation purposes.
The method involves checking the validity of the generated links based on the identification and license information available at the modules. If the link is deemed invalid, further steps are taken to determine the correct identification and license information. The master module plays a crucial role in providing and verifying the information among the modules. The patent also covers scenarios where identification information is not available at certain modules, requiring obtaining it via the user interface of the electrosurgical generator. Overall, the method ensures proper functioning of the electrosurgical generator by securely managing identification and license information among its modules.
