Basic Operation
The basic operation of the AccuPen consists of the following steps:
1. Power on the AccuPen instrument.
2. Take up to nine measurements.
3. Enter the measured CCT (Central Corneal Thickness) and calculate the AIOP
(Adjusted IOP) for each eye.
4. Record the data in the Patient Record.
How to Power On the AccuPen
1. With the battery installed, the AccuPen is always powered. However, after a
period of nonuse, the unit turns off sections of the electronics, including the
LCD, to conserve power. To restore the unit to full power, press any control
button.
2. The Product Information Screen is briefly shown, and then the Measure
Screen is displayed.
How to Start a New Patient
1. Hold the Up and Down control buttons on the
AccuPen simultaneously for 2 to 3 seconds.
2. A single beep from the instrument will indicate
that all IOP measurements, averages, CCT
entries, and calculations are set to zero.
WARNING! THE ACCUTIP COVER MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE TAKING ANY
MEASUREMENTS ON A NEW PATIENT.
