    What to do if processing does not start on my Nidek Medical Edger?
    • J
      Jessica RogersAug 4, 2025
      If processing doesn't start when you press the start button and a beep sounds, it could be because the soundproof cover is open. Please close the cover. Alternatively, the instrument may be trying to process the same side of the lens. Press the start button to change the indication from R or L to process the opposite lens.

    Why does retracing start automatically on my Nidek Medical LE-9000LX Edger?
    • J
      jillellisAug 9, 2025
      Automatic retracing, indicated by blinking LEDs, occurs when there's a significant difference (1 mm or more) in circumference between the right and left rims. To resolve this, trace only one rim and then proceed to edge the lens.

    What to do if the stylus comes off the groove of frame during tracing with Nidek Medical LE-9000LX Edger?
    • D
      Dawn GrossAug 19, 2025
      If the stylus comes off the groove during tracing and the LED blinks, press the button to return the stylus to its original position and try tracing again. For frames that are sharply warped, trace only one rim while holding the other rim in place.

    Why does the Nidek Medical Edger change to Bevel simulation display during lens shape measurement?
    • C
      Crystal BartonAug 25, 2025
      The display changes to the Bevel simulation and part of the outline blinks because the lens size is insufficient for the selected outline. Press the stop button, then either use a larger lens or change the lens layout.
