3 DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE
OPTIKA LIGHT is a key-reading device that incorporates high quality performance and precision.
OPTIKA LIGHT reads the profile and recognises most flat, bit and double bit keys if they are included
in the selected database.
(*) With a cut key the profile is read properly and re-
cognized only if the cuts have not touched or altered the part used for recognition. Example (fig.
4):

4 DEVICE INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION
The device can be installed by the purchaser and does not require any special skills.
However, some checks and preparation for use have to be carried out by the operator.
4.1 Separate Parts
• Power supply cable and power supply unit
Connect OPTIKA LIGHT to the power supply unit (M)
and connect to the po wer so urce by me ans of th e
power supply cable (fig. 9).
•USB PEN

4.3 Environmental conditions
The OPTIKA LIGHT device uses a series of instruments whose operation could be significantly affected
by the environment in which they work. The most suitable conditions for the device are:
• Temperature between +10° C e +40° C
• Relative humidity 60% (Max) (without condensation)
• It is in any case advisable to avoid excessively damp or badly ventilated areas.
Nota bene:
suddenly from low (0°C or lower) to high (20-25°C), the lenses may cloud and condensation form.
In such cases the device must be placed in an area with constant temperature of 20°C if possible,
until the condensation on the lenses evaporates and the device can operate in normal conditions
like any device using lenses for reading images, whenever the temperature goes

5.3 Fitting or removing the key into or from the clamp W ARNINGS
To read the key and use the machine properly remember that:
• To avoid condensations on the devices lenses, it is recommended to not
move the device from a cold environment to a warm environment. If this is
the case, it is recommended to wait a few hours before use of the device.
• The key must be carefully cleaned. Any residue on the profile, such as
grease, deposits, filaments, dust or whatever, may cause errors (use the
brush provided).
• The key must be of the required type (see ch.3).
• The key must not be all black (plastic or surface treatment).
• For bit, double bit and pump keys the light shade adapter must be fitted.
• The key must be intact. If it is broken it must have a regular profile.
• The key must not be bent or twisted and the part to be read must be free of
dents (especially bumps in the material on the tip, or burrs).
• The key must be fitted into the centre of the clamp and not sloping (fig. 18).
Make sure it is not facing too far to the right or left (fig. 19).
• If the key is one of a bunch, it can still be read, as long as the clamp
functions and the key position are not affected.
Fig. 13
• Only keys can be fitted into the OPTIKA LIGHT device clamp (for maximum
dimensions see fig. 5, page 6).
Fitting
Nota bene: make sure the clamp (which can be opened and rotated) is well centred and not turned
fully left or right (fig. 13).

5.3.1 KEY INSERTION
1) Take hold of the key head with one hand and with the
other lower the clamp opening lever (fig. 14).
2) With the clamp open fit the key, taking care that:
- the key is well centred on the clamp (not too far to
the right or left) (fig. 19).
- it is aligned as well as possible (not turned right or
left) (fig. 17).
3) For bit key s make sure the key head is aligned
horizontally.

5.3.2 BIT KEY INSERTION WITH LI GHT SHADE DEVICE
Opening the light shade device:
Hold the side of the adapter and lift
the closing tab.
Closing the light shade device:
Insert the key to be dimme d and
close the ad apter by l owering the
lever until it clicks into place.
Fig. 15 - light shade device
5.3.3 KEY REMOVAL
Nota bene: the key must be removed only
when the clamp is open. Removing it with the
clamp
closed will damage the illuminators and
the key plate (glass).
1) Take hold of the key head with one hand and
with the other lower the clamp opening lever
(fig. 16).
2) With the clamp open, lift the key in it so that the
glass plate is no t scra tched and remove the
key.
3) Release the clamp opening lever.

6.1.2 VIEWING THE PROFILE
CASE 1: PERFECT VIEW OF PROFILE
The profile is perfectly visible on the
display, the profile luminosity bar is
complete and the 3 fine lines on the
alignment bar are visible. The bottom righthand corner of the display shows a smiley
and after two seconds the search
starts automatically.
Fig. 22
CASE 2: POOR VIEW OF PROFILE
The profile is NOT clearly visible on the
display; the left-hand luminosity bar is
incomplete and the 3 fine lines on the
alignment bar are not all visible.
Check the position of the key in the clamp:
- move the key slightly forward or back
and/or turn the clamp slightly to the left
or right until the display shows the
conditions in case 1.
Fig. 23
NOTES:
If the left-hand bar (referred to the
profile) on the display is not completely upwards,
lightly push the key head so that it advances well
into the clamp, or pull it out slightly (fig. 20).
The end of milled channels must be beneath the

the surface condition of the key do not allow it to
extend completely (the left-hand bar could be halfway). With a left-hand bar below 70% of the total, key

Transmission to the IDEA electronic key-cutting machine
The OPTIKA LIGHT device is used to read then transmit the cuts of a bit key directly to the IDEA keycutting machine without the aid of a personal computer. OPTIKA LIGHT can be used as an alternative
to the optic reader on the IDEA key-cutting machine, considerably reducing reading times.
ATTENTION:
• the cuts on a bit key read by OPTIKA LIGHT can be transmitted only to the
IDEA electronic key-cutting machine
• Before transmitting the key to be cut, make sure that:
- the key-cutting machine is live
- the key-cutting machine is not in motion
- OPTIKA LIGHT and the key-cutting machine
are connected with a serial cable with adapter
(fig. 31) found in the OPTIONAL KIT.
The cuts for the key to be read by OPTIKA Light can be transmitted to the keycutting machine in the following way:
