WARNING: APPLY RATED INPUT VOLTAGE TO THE UNIT AS INDICATED ON THE DATA PLATE TO PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE INSTRUMENT AND/OR INJURY TO THE OPERATOR OR PATIENT.
WARNING: CAREFULLY ARRANGE THE CABLES FOR THE UNIT AND ACCESSORIES, SO THE CABLES DO NOT
PRESENT A TRIPPING HAZARD TO THE EXAMINER OR A DANGER TO THE PATIENT.
WARNING: POSITION THIS INSTRUMENT SO THE PLUG IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE.
WARNING: DO NOT PLUG IN THE CENTRAL UNIT UNTIL THE VISUTRON 900 TOUCH SYSTEM IS FULLY SETUP.
The basic system setup contains three components programmed to interact with each other: the
Phoroptor Head, the Central Unit, and the Controller. The Central Unit directs communication between
the Phoroptor Head, Controller, and other pre-test devices, while the Controller acts as the user interface
and controls the Phoroptor Head and the Input/Output of data.
The Visutron 900 Touch is also designed to communicate with Reichert and other manufacturers acuity
systems.
External devices, including digital acuity systems, projectors, Lensmeters, Auto Refractors, printers, and
computers are connected using serial cables or Bluetooth wireless serial adapters.
Note: Ensure that the pre-test equipment being interfaced is compatible. Refer to Appendix A for a
complete list of external devices that communicate with the Visutron 900 Touch.

EMR Setup
The Visutron 900 Touch can connect to an EMR system one of two ways, depending on the capability of
the EMR system. Contact the EMR company to find out if the specific EMR system is configured to support one-way or two-way communication.
One-Way EMR
One-way communication means the EMR system can only accept data coming in. This configuration requires pre-test equipment to send data to the Visutron 900 Touch, then all of the data (the pre-test data
and final refraction data) would transfer to the EMR. Refer to Figure IS-23.
Pre Test Data goes
TO
the
Visutron 900
Touch
All Data Goes
TO
the EMR
Figure IS-23, One-Way Communication Diagram
Note: If there are multiple lanes with Visutron 900 Touch systems, they will need to be connected via
daisy-chaining. This will allow all pre-test data to be transferred to each Visutron 900 Touch
system. From there, each Visutron 900 Touch can load the pre-test data and send all of the data
to the EMR system. Refer to the Daisy chaining Multiple Visutron 900 Touch’s section for more
detailed information on this setup.
Two-Way EMR
Two-way communication means the EMR can send pre-test data out to the Visutron 900 Touch and
receive final refraction data in from the Visutron 900 Touch. At the end of the exam, the Visutron 900 Touch will send only final refraction data out to the EMR. Refer to Figure IS-24.

Daisy Chaining Multiple Visutron 900 Touch Systems
When an EMR system only supports one way communication in a setup with multiple Visutron 900
Touch units, Daisy chaining is required to get the pre-test data to all of the Visutron 900 Touch units. Pretest equipment is sent to the first Visutron 900 Touch in the chain, and the data is then sent to all of the
other Visutron 900 Touch systems via the Instrument 1 or 2 and Transfer ports as shown in Figure IS-28.

1. Tap Settings, located at the top right of the Controller screen.
2. Tap Ports on the Settings menu.
3. Setup the Auto Refractor and Lensmeter to communicate with the Visutron 900 Touch closest to that
location, using the Instrument 1 and Instrument 2 ports. Refer to the Connecting the Visutron 900 Touch System section of this manual for setup instructions for the pre-test equipment.
4. For both Instrument 1 and Instrument 2 section of the Ports page, check off both Store and Transfer
in the Port Settings panel.
5. Connect the Transfer port on Central Unit of the first Visutron 900 Touch to the Instrument 1 Port
on the Central Unit of the Visutron 900 Touch next in line, using a cable, Bluetooth dongle, or internal
Bluetooth connection. Refer to Figure IS-28.
a. Refer to the Connecting with Cables section if connecting with a cable.
b. If connecting with Bluetooth dongles, refer to the Connecting With Bluetooth Dongles section of
this manual.
c. If connecting with internal Bluetooth, refer to the Connecting With Internal Bluetooth section of this
manual.
Note: TheTransferportontherstVisutron900Touch is the data output port, and the Instrument 1
port on the next Visutron 900 Touch is the data input port.
6. IntherstVisutron900Touch of the chain, for the Transfer port of the Port Settings panel, select VRx Transfer as the device, then tap Apply.
7. In the second Visutron 900 Touch in the chain, for the Instrument 1 port of the Port Settings panel,
select AutoPhor Receive as the device then tap Apply. For the Transfer port of the Port Settings
panel, select VRx Transfer as the device, then tap Apply.
8. Continue this process until all exam rooms with Visutron 900 Touch systems are connected.
Note: The last Visutron 900 TouchinthechaindoesnotneedtohavetheTransferportcongured,
only the Instrument 1 port. Under Instrument 1, the Transfer box does not need to be checked
off, only the Store box.
Note: There is no limit to the number of Visutron 900 Touch units that can be linked together.
1. Tap Settings, located at the top right of the Controller screen.
2. Tap Ports on the Settings menu.
3. In the Port Settings panel, tap Transfer in the Port Selection column. Be sure that under Device,
VRx Transfer is selected. Refer to Figure IS-30.
4. Select Bluetooth (Internal) under Connection Type. Refer to Figure IS-30.
5. Tap Discover under Bluetooth Address. Refer to Figure IS-30.
6. Tap the Bluetooth address for the Visutron 900 Touch that the data will be transferred to, then tap Pair.
Note: The Bluetooth address is found in System Information, in the Service Menu. Refer to Figure IS-29.
Figure IS-29, Bluetooth Address
7. Repeat all the above steps for the Instrument 1 port on the Visutron 900 Touch that is having the data
transferred to it. Be sure that under Device, AutoPhor Receive is selected. Refer to Figure IS-31.
8. Repeat these connection steps for every Visutron 900 Touch in the chain.
Note: If the Bluetooth was successfully paired, “Connected” will appear in the upper right corner of
the panel on both Visutron 900 Touch units. “Connected” will not appear until both Visutron 900 Touch’sarecongured.If“Failed”appearsoneitherVisutron900Touch instruments, then repeat
the directions from step 3.
The Visutron 900 Touch includes a Near vision rod, and a near
vision card attached to a card illuminator. Place the three AAA
batteries in the card illuminator.
Slide the card illuminator onto the near vision rod. Loosen
the convergence lever thumb screw, install the rod into the
convergence lever, and tighten the thumb screw. The reading
rod is held up in the stored position by a spring clip.
Use caution when moving the Visutron 900 Touch head to
make sure the rod is not accidentally lowered. The card
illuminator will automatically turn on when the rod is lowered,
and turn off when the rod is raised. Use the button on the
underside of the NearBright to adjust the illumination level.
The card illuminator will automatically shut off after 15 minutes
when the rod is lowered.
Face Shields
The Visutron 900 Touch includes two pairs of face shields.
These are attached with magnets to the patients side of the
Phoroptor head.
Turn the Visutron 900 Touch On and Off
The ON/OFF switch is located on the Central Unit. The entire
system is powered by the Central Unit and turned ON/OFF
from there.
When the Visutron 900 Touch is turned ON, the Controller
software will bootup and the Phoroptor head will perform
its initialization procedure. This will take approximately one
minute.
To shut down the system, set the ON/OFF switch to OFF.
