5.15.1 Front-rear bit conversion
The "FRONT-REAR BIT CONVERSION" function makes it possible to make a supplementary correction to
the data read from a key which has symmetrical cuts on the bit. The operator may activate this function when
part of the bit is more worn than its corresponding part (e.g. wear on the side of the key which operates only
on the outside of the lock) or a tooth is missing or broken which was identical to the one symmetrically placed
on the opposite side of the bit (fig. 88).
Fig. 88
The software program which converts the bit divides it symmetrically into two parts (front and rear),
attributing each tooth with the deepest cut of the two teeth symmetrically opposed.
Stop : to quit
Enter : to continue (confirmation)
5.15.2 “X” Specular bit conversion
The “X SPECULAR BIT CONVERSION” function makes it possible to make a supplementary correction to
the data read from a key which has diagonally symmetrical cuts on the bit.
The operator may activate this function when part of the bit is more worn than its corresponding part (e.g.
wear on the side of the key which operates only on the outside of the lock) or a tooth is broken or missing
which was identical to the one specularly placed on the opposite side of the bit (fig. 89).
