Precautions on power source

 The power cord must be grounded at all time.

 Avoid damaging the power cord (such as bending it in an extremely small size, pulling, placing a

heavy object on it). When the power cord is damaged (breaks, damage of cover, etc), replace it to a new cord to prevent any electric shock or fire from ocurring.

 Insert the power cord firmly into the outlet and the instrument. If not, fire or electric shock may occur.

 Keep the power cord clean without any dust or oil on it. The dirty terminal may cause malfunction or

fire.

 When the power cord becomes hot after used, check for the dirt at the terminal part. If you find no dirt,

replace the power cord to a new cord. The dirty terminal may cause malfucntion or fire.

 Always use SLM-5000 with the rated powe voltage. Using the instrument out of the rated voltage

range may cause malfunction or fire.

 When pluging and unpluging the power cord,

always hold the plug.

2. Installation Environment

1) Do not expose the optic parts, i.e. lens stand, directly to

sunlight or bright light from other sources.

Strong light or glare to the instrument may cause the failure of measurement.

2) Do not install the instrument in places where either dust

or rubbish may accumulate.

3) Environments with extremes in heat and humidity

should also be avoided.

Temperature range for use: 10C ~ 40C Temperature range for storage: -10C ~ 60C Humidity range for use/storage: 70%HR (no dew condensation allowed)

4) Keep away from inflammable or explosive gases as well as storage areas of medical supplies and

chemicals.

5) Keep awa y from sites that experience strong vibrations

or sudden shocks.

6) Malfunction is likely to occur if the instrument is not

properly stabilized of accidentally overturns. To prevent internal/external damage caused by sudden impact, install the instrument on a surface that is solid and secure. Do not store in high, ‘out of reach’ places.

Gases

3. Safeguard Summary

1) Ensure the instrument is properly grounded when connected to the power source.

2) Do not touch or allow dust to settle on the optical parts (i.e. lenses), as their measuring accuracy could

be adversely affected and incorrect value may result.

3) If the surfaces of the measuring unit and main unit

including the operation switches are dirty, gently wipe with a dry cloth. For hard to remove stains, a damp cloth or neutral cleanser is recommended.

4) SLM-5000 is a precision optical instrument. Handle

with care at all times, making sure not to accidentally drop it.

5) If the instrument is not to be used for any length of

time, remove the power cord from the outlet.

6) When not in use, the instrument should be protected

with the provided dustproof cover.

7) If the instrument fails to function properly, do not

attempt to perform internal service or adjustment. Contact immediately your nearest registered agent, distributor or retail outlet.

When dust or fingerprints appear, use the supplied dust cloth or a soft cloth to gently wipe off the build-up. Take great care when cleaning these parts, as they are particularly sensitive and fragile.

At no time use organic solvents which will damage the water based paint finish of the instrument.

1) Detection of the progressive area

First move the lens slowly to the right and left, and back

(1)

and forth to find the progressive area. When the progressive area is detected, the screen (2) appears.

When the progressive area can not be detected because the ADD value is small, press Memory/Add switch. You can call up the screen (2).

2) Far point measurement

When you move the lens toward the instrument according to , the shape of the alignment cursor changes. Move the lens slowly

to the far point.

When the progressive area is off the lens stand, the arrow changes to and the cursor changes to or . In such a case, move the lens to the right and left until the arrow and cursor change back to and respectively. Then, move the lens toward the

Abbe

instrument. Once the far point is detected, The alignment cursor changes to a symmetrical cross , as shown in the screen (3). When the Memory/Add switch is pressed, the

(3)

cursor becomes green . Then, the measurement value



of the far point is stored in memory.

※

the set up screen, a measurement value of a far point is saved automatically too.

3) Near point measurement

Move the lens slowly

toward you according to the arrow as shown in the screen (4) so that the alignment cursor moves toward the near point.

When the progressive area is off the lens stand, the arrow

When the near point approaches, the alignment cursor changes from blue to red. Carry out alignment carefully. When the near point is attained, a bleep sounds and the

cursor becomes green. At the same time, the Add value is automatically stored in memory.

 Manual Operation and Graphical Representation of ADD value and Assessment

When you set "Prog. Graph" for ON in the Set up screen, a graph for progressive lens is displayed on the measurement screen. Normally the near and far points are automatically detec ted. However, some lenses may be difficult to do so. In such a case, measure manually based on the graphs of Add value and assessment. To measure the far point manually, carry out alignment a ccording to the shape of the alignment cursor as you do for auto measurement. For near point measurement, press Memory/Add switch where the Add value becomes the highest while the alignment cursor stays in the progressive area. When the near point is achieved, the assessment graph touches the Y coordinate. Pay attention to the shape of the cursor and the graph position when you do alignment.
