MEASUREMENT IN REF/KRT→TONO/PACHO CONTINUOUS MEASUREMENT MODE
6 At a position where the measuring nozzle is 8-9mm from the cornea, tap the button and
thereby set the position of the nozzle limit.
7 Return to the Measurement screen and confirm that the position of the nozzle limit icon is
changed, push the main unit a little forward by operating the
of the control panel, and then confirm that a message "Nozzle at limit position" is displayed on
the screen. Setting is complete if the main unit does not go forward any more.
MEASUREMENT IN REF/KRT
→
TONO/PACHO CONTINUOUS MEASUREMENT MODE
In this mode the measurement is performed continuously left and right eye in REF/KRT and TONO/
PACHO.
Before shipment the default setting is following order; right eye in REF/KRT, left eye in REF/KRT, left
eye in TONO/PACHO and right eye in TONO/PACHO. When the measurement switches REF/KRT
to TONO/PACHO, it takes about 10 seconds for vertical movement of the measuring head.
NOTE
• Auto mode may not be possible, in cases where the eyelid and the eye-
lashes cover the pupil.
If this occurs, the operator should tell the patient to open their eyes as
wide as possible, or lift the eyelid to allow for measurement.
• Auto mode may not be possible due to frequent blinks or existing abnor-
malities in the corneal surface caused by corneal disease etc. In this case,
select Manual mode.
• The ocular pressure varies due to heart beats and tears. So, if it is not pos-
sible to obtain exact measurement values by measuring only once or
twice, it is recommended to perform ocular pressure measurements sev-
eral times.
• When operating the instrument, be careful that the instrument does not
touch the patient's eye or nose. If touched, clean the instrument as speci-
fied in "CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT" on page 92.
• If the patient is wearing make up on the eyelid or around the eyelid using
glitter, the auto alignment may not function properly.
In this case, select Manual mode.
• If the machine is moved before the measurement values are displayed, it
might cause an incorrect measurement.
• The beep function for urging cautions is provided so that a finger or a hand
is not pinched between the reverse side of forehead rest, a measuring
head and an ocular pressure measurement window.
• If area far away from the pupil is tapped, the instrument may touch the
patient's eye, eyelid or nose due to auto alignment.
