We congratulate you on acquiring a high-precision Essilor tracer. Before using the tracer, we highly recommend to you to read this handbook in its entirety so you can get the highest satisfaction from
the machine. This equipment complies with the limits imposed by Part 15 of the FCC rule. Its use meets the following conditions: (1) this device
must not cause interference and (2) must accept interference from external sources, notably that liable to cause malfunctions. In accordance with the requirements of FCC rules, any modification made to this equipment which is not expressly approved by
ESSILOR INTERNATIONAL will nullify the user's right to use this device.
1. Note
This equipment has been tested and is deemed compliant with the limits imposed for Class-B digital devices according to Part 15 of the FCC rule. Those limits are set so as to ensure reasonable protection against interference in a residential environment. This equipment generates, uses and may emit radiofrequency energy liable to interfere with radio communications if the device is not installed and used in strict compliance with manufacturer instructions.
However, nothing guarantees that interferences will not occur under particular conditions. If this equipment is the source of interferences with the receptions of radio or television, which can be determined with certainty by turning on the powered-off device, the user can eliminate the aforementioned interferences by taking one or several of the following measures:
reoriente/move the affected receiver or its reception antenna move the device away from the affected receiver; connect the device to a different circuit than the one powering the affected receiver; ask for assistance from the dealer or a qualified radio/television technician.
The information contained in this document is non-contractual and provided as a guide. It is subject to change without prior notice. Errors or omissions may occur in this type of document, although the greatest
care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of the information provided. In no case Essilor will be held responsible the possible loss of data or malfunctions which could result from these errors or
omissions.
2. Warning
To reduce the risks related to the use of electrical equipment - fire, electric shock, injuries, (...) - it is essential to comply with the basic safety rules.
Also, we highly recommend that you read and save this handbook before activating your tracer. Operations of the mechanical and electronic adjustments and electrical maintenance must be carried out by an After-sales service
technician approved of by Essilor. In order to use your tracer in total safety, we recommend that you follow the following instructions:
Your table must be clean, not encumbered and sufficiently lighted to allow usage without risk. Take care not to use the tracer in the presence of liquids or flammable gases. Check the power supply cable periodically and, if it is damaged, have it replaced by an approved repair technician. Keep the cable far away from the heat sources, sharp objects and greasy substances. Never pull on the cable to extract it from the socket. Before connecting the tracer to the electrical network, you ensure that it is powered down. If the switch no longer functions you should not use your tracer any more. The defective switch must be replaced by an
approved technician. In periods of prolonged non-use, and before carrying out any maintenance and/or replacement of certain accessories, it is
imperative to disconnect the tracer from the electrical network. The tracer is a professional tool and its use is reserved for specialized and responsible operators. It must not be used by
anyone other than those operators. Before using the tracer, make sure it functions and ensure that the product can function correctly. Use and installation of any accessory other than those recommended in this handbook can present a risk for the operators
who use the product. Do not use the tracer for operations other than those described in this document. The tracer must be maintained carefully in accordance with the instructions detailed in this document. The tracer is a piece of electrical equipment in conformity with the applicable safety standards. In the event of malfunction,
repair operations must be performed by qualified personnel approved by Essilor. Otherwise, the user's safety may be at risk.

TESS > V4 - 01.17 11
1. Work surface
To get the highest level of precision from the tracer, we recommend that you lay out it on a strong surface that is and flat,stable isolated from any shocks or oscillations.
The tracer can be placed up to 5 meters from your computer and/or your edger. Optional longer cords are available.
2. Environment
The temperature and the relative humidity of the location where you use your tracer must be within the following limits:
Operation in “remote lens edging”
+15°C (+59°F) to +30°C (+86°F) 30% to 75%
Operation in “local edging”
+10°C (+50°F) to +40°C (+104°F) 30% to 75%
Storage
-5°C (+23°F) to +50°C (+122°F) 10% to 95%
Altitude < 2000 m
Avoid abrupt changes of temperature and moisture and install the tracer:
in an area not exposed to direct sunlight, away from any heat sources, away from any strong magnetic fields, away from any corrosive chemical products or vapors and liquids.
Make sure to arrange it so it can expel heat from the top of the tracer. Do not put any objects on the tracer.
This machine is not suitable for nor intended to operate in an environment classified as being under risk of explosion.
3. Electrical installation
a. Electrical characteristics
Tracer power
12 Volts
Power supply voltage (external power)
100-240 VAC
Frequencies 50 - 60 Hz
Grounding
The tracer must be plugged into a grounded electrical network. This grounding must be in conformity and checked by an electrician.
Parasites and micro-interruptions
The tracer was designed to resist and function in spite of the presence of parasites and the possibility of micro-interruptions on the electrical communication.
However, if these defects are major and abnormal, the normal functioning of the product cannot be guaranteed.
USER MANUAL > PRECAUTIONS REQUIRED
12 TESS > V4 - 01.17
4. Cleaning
To prevent any accidents, unplug the device before cleaning it. Regularly clean the tracer (except for the feeler) using a soft rag dampened with water or a neutral detergent (dish soap).
To prevent dust deposits from disturbing the high precision of the tracer, we advise that you close the protective cover after use.
Never clean the tracer using thinners, different solvents, alcohol or benzene, acetone or other organic or mineral solvents.

3. Connections
Power socket Ethernet port
USB port Barcode tracer port
Serial port Edger connection port
Depending on your configuration, the tracer can be connected to the RS323 port through:
a computer, a Essilor edger:
Delta T Delta 2 Jess JessIE JessD
a. Connection to a computer
There are two methods to connect the tracer to a computer:
Connect RS232C cable to the serial port of the tracer (cf image 5, shown above) and on a serial port RS232C of the computer.
Connect the RJ-45 cable to the Ethernet port of the tracer (cf image 2, shown above) and on your Ethernet network (switch, router, faceplate…).
Before any Ethernet connection, it is imperative to know the structure of the network to which the tracer will be connected.
b. Connection to an Essilor edger (Delta T, Jess, JessIE, JessD)
The connection of the tracer to the edger will be carried out with the two devices powered off. The voltage indicated on your devices (tracer, power supply) must correspond to the provided power. Avoid connectors or adapters which are likely to not ensure good contact. Check that the cables do not pass near to disruptive electric elements: electric motors, fluorescent tubes, radios, etc.
Check that the device is turned off.
Connect the specific black cable delivered with Delta T: refer to the guidance labels found on the side, and connect the of edger connection port of the tracer (cf image 6, shown above) with the RS232 port of the edger.
The cable used is a cross cable.
Make sure to comply with the direction of the connection indicated on the labels of the cable in correspondence with
the symbols used on the edger and the tracer.
