Notes:
The Light Guide Connector!
The light guide connector has three major components.
1. electrical pins - The electrical pins make the connection for the “Auto Iris Signal” from the video processor to the light source. When the connecting pins on the light source become dirty or damaged, you will have erratic light exposure. This is the dimming or glaring of light. The MH-236 video scope cable eliminates this problem by making the connection to the light source directly to AUX connector on the light source. The MH-236 video scope cable overrides the electrical pins.
2. air pipe - The air pipe, when inserted into the light source, receives the air from the air pump inside the light source. If the rubber seal inside the output socket becomes worn, you can have reduced air and water to the distal end of the scope. Also, you may be able to hear a hissing sound coming from the connection point on the light source. This is the sound of escaping air, and again, produces inadequate air and water to the distal end of the scope.
3. light guide - The light guide, when inserted into the light source, conducts the light from the light source (xenon or halogen) through the light guide fiber bundle to the distal end of the endoscope. The light guide fiber bundle can be inspected by holding the light guide up to a low light source (window or florescent ceiling light) and observing the distal end light guide cover glass lens. The entire area inside the cover glass should be illuminated.
