Medical control systems
First Claim
1. A medical control system, comprising:
- an operator device having a touchscreen;
a control device; and
a plurality of medical apparatuses,wherein the plurality of medical apparatuses and the operator device are coupled to the control device by respective data connections,wherein the operator device is adapted to display a plurality of schematic illustrations respectively corresponding to each of the plurality of medical apparatuses in a first display on the touchscreen,wherein the operator device is adapted, by touching a first schematic illustration of the plurality of schematic illustrations in the first display, to illustrate a first medical apparatus of the plurality of medical apparatuses along with first specific operation functions of the first medical apparatus in a second display,wherein the first and second displays comprise substantially similar symbols for respectively illustrating substantially similar specific operation functions of the plurality of medical apparatuses, andwherein the first medical apparatus illustrated in the second display comprises driven components, and the operator device is adapted to illustrate the driven components by symbols that correspond to specific operation functions.
