Force FX REM Calibration!

[@janvirane8238]

Also can u share the video of how to make the calibration kit?

[@sangeetasang9437]

Thank you and you are the best. Please show some basic of test devices like using Oscilloscope or their features and usage.

[@omarplascencia-hernandez9128]

Great content! I’m currently in a BMET program and these videos are helpful! Thank you!

[@bc7522]

Still have these on NHS just worked on one

[@serviciosindustrialesdelbr3724]

Great Video my friend !!!!.. Please share which resistors did you use for your calibration test leads keys

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

1/4 or 1/8 watt resistors.

Valley lab force fvx 212 error any solution pls

[@dreamier85]

Thanks a lot, I'd love if u can explain a little bit about the internal cct of this ESU, or I can email you if u prefer that !!

[@oscarcastaneda9360]

great video, I have error "165" in a force FX do you have video for the procedure or any suggestion for this error Tanks! from colombia.

Good luck man. If you ever need some assistance, remember, the community is here to help you.

I always have so many questions for older ESU and tech support is not as helpful for the old stuff!

Wow, great video. Will help👍🏻 and how about E18? Can u explain?

[@pkaycoddie9705]

How do you make a set of verification ohms keys?

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

I will make a video on that.

[@tcee7580]

@@BetterBiomedChannel i would also like to know when that video is coming out.. Great set of ohms keys..

Hello, I cannot find the 10, 70 and 135 ohm resistors in our country. Is +-5Ohm resistors close to these values suitable for calibration? Also, can I learn the Watt values of these resistors?

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Remember, in series, resistors values add together. In parallel, their value is less. Get a resistor kit and experiment.

[@vadovelocity9831]

Do you have a video on how to complete the PM on unit and the process showing it?

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Sorry man. I won't do PM videos because PMs can change. It's always best to use the latest manual

[@kyle-ol7xq]

great video

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Thanks

[@nawarajpaudel6246]

Thank you so much for your great explanation. But I can't understand calibration key, which type of resistors are used in this key, plz provide information thank you.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

1/4 Watt resistors will be fine

[@nawarajpaudel6246]

Sir, how to make calibration key and which values plz provide info with circuit.

[@Guilhermeaugusto-lr5pn]

Good night my friend. Would you have these videos recorded in Portuguese or translated into Portuguese would you have the possibility to send

[@JitendraKumar-s1x5p]

Alarm 212 is flashing can it be removed by calibrating it?

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

@@JitendraKumar-s1x5p I would try that first

[@sagarshah8876]

Hello sir Can you make a video of watt calibration.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

I could but I'm staying away from calibrations for legal reasons

[@The_Biomed]

that's not telling you your values are stored, it's telling you that you've failed the calibration step. You get it to pass in your newer video. You should really update this so people do't think they've passed the REM cal step when they see 120 to 122 error codes

[@giorgigogua686]

Great video 👍👍 I have questions same device have error 161 and can't cut ( can't help calibration ) know some reason ? Thank you..

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

I have heard of multiple people having this issue.

[@FUFARATO]

Change the mosfet

[@richardwright6872]

Anyone know how to test the APT 8030 JN MOSFET in one of these things ?

[@denmachan]

We have just bought a vPad Rf tester, and the Force FX 8C non REM test on the auto sequence says that the REM indicator should be green at 1 Ohm. I’m sure this is wrong, and that it should be off, and alarm at about 20 ohms. What say you?

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

There are 2 different REM connectors which will affect your results - with a tang and without. A connector with the tang stick attached is for a split electrode REM Pad and it should alarm at less than 8 ohms (ithink) and have values between 9Ohms and 135Ohms. The Non Tang connector is for single electrode pads and those values are 0 ohms - 8 ohms. It has been a little while since I have done a REM check on the FX model.

[@denmachan]

@@BetterBiomedChannel thanks for your reply! I found the valley lab spec and it’s definitely not illuminated at all at 5 ohms, and it should alarm at 24 ohms. With the non rem cable without the pin of course. Loving the videos mate! Good work!

i thought you were in front of a green screen in the beginning 😂 anyways, great video as always!

No green screens here.

[@josecampo5207]

Hello my friend, my name is José and I am from Colombia. I have a ESU on my work shop and It presents error code 160 and 212. I did all the calibrations and I to changed the battery of the memory and to show the same problem. I need that you help me. Thank's a lot.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Jose, what make / model esu are you working on? I'll do some research and see if I can duplicate your error

[@josecampo5207]

​@@BetterBiomedChannel​, The model that I am working is Force FX. Thank you.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Jose, both error codes are calibration issues. Replace the internal battery and do a full system calibration.

Hello brother . I have valleylab force fx esu . I faced error 161in cut . Please help me to fix this error

Check the mosfets. Other users have reported that error with a shorted FET

[@haelalmesbahi6411]

I already check the mosfet and its working

[@abigailcharles542]

hello! A Valleylab Force FX just came into the workshop and the bipolar standard setting is unresponsive. Can you advise me please? much appreciated.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Are you depressing the bipolar buttons next to the bipolar ports? Are you sure the bipolar foot control has continuity? You can jumper the bipolar and activate with a paperclip to the 3 pin port on the back of the unit. 2/3 pins need shorted to activate.

[@abigailcharles542]

@@BetterBiomedChannel I am going to try this, thank you so much.

[@abigailcharles542]

@@BetterBiomedChannel the bipolar foot control has continuity because it works for the low and macro settings , however , nothing for the med/standard

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

@@abigailcharles542 Abigail, let me do some research on this one. I've never heard of this problem before. A full calibration might be needed. Did you try to open the case and reseat the CPU card (if I remember correctly) which is in the middle of the device mounted on its edge?

Sir can u help me error 160 in force fx machine

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

"If you get a 160 error, remove the K2 relay and then apply power. IF the error goes away, the problem is probably on the right side of the FX; however if the error is still shown, then the problem is on the left side of the unit. To remove relay: push retaining spring to the side. To reinstall: put relay in place first, then push retaining spring straight down from the top." -medwrench

What kind of education would I need to become a biomed tech? I will appreciate it if you can point me to some online resources. I'm learning electronics and I can perform beginner level repairs on consumer electronics and power supplies. After having watched a few of your videos, it looks like biomed techs are from a totally different world.

[@BetterBiomedChannel]

Start with a 2 year technical degree or a few years in a technical career field. I recommend The Biomed's Handbook from thebiomedshandbook.com to expose you to the variety of devices we see every day. Study up on your medical terminology (this will set you apart from many biomeds). Volunteer at a local hospital. -Eeven if that means you will be packing equipment to ship out for repair. Exposure to a hospital environment will speed your learning. Good luck. Stay in touch!
