The optical surfaces can be cleaned using a 9:1 ether-alcohol mixture, a special optics cleaning
mixture (SM-30-8005-32) or methanol.

Service notes
Unpacking, installation and cabling of the instrument are described in the user manual.
Please note in particular the safety notes, technical specifications and other service information
contained in the user manual.
Modules and spare parts that can be changed by service staff without any special training being
required are not described in this manual.
Mounting components are not supplied with the spare parts and must therefore be re-used when
exchanging modules.

Safety notes
Caution: Disconnect the instrument from the line power before opening it.
Hazardous voltages are accessible after the instrument has been opened. Make sure
to take appropriate safety precautions to prevent contact with hazardous voltages,
and to comply with the relevant work regulations.
After every service activity, check the complete instrument for correct function and, if
necessary, for electrical safety.
Checking the electrical safety
Checking the electrical safety is required after each maintenance or repair in accordance with the
instructions in bulletin 400 of Jan. 27, 2005.

position for the measurement or magnification position of the magnification changer.
In this position, the maximum of the measurement signal and the keratometer
measurement markings should be centered relative to the crosshairs.
The coupler must be aligned in such a way that the "correct" cycle with the switching
sequence 00 is used. If this is not the case, there will be an offset of 4 steps.

 Overview position:
The overview position is reached after 29x steps, with the coupler position having to be 0.
This position is reached by aligning the mobile actuating flag.
The magnification changer may only move within the end positions. Positions outside these
limits will not be taken into consideration by the program. The magnification will then move
towards the mechanical end position.

the KER mode. Align the IOLMaster horizontally
and vertically with the test sphere in such a way
that the keratometer measurement markings
are exactly symmetrical to the crosshairs of the
display.
• Lock the base in position.
• Use the <Alt>+<Tab> keys to bring the "Motors" window to the foreground.
• Move the window until the video image becomes visible and operation of the changer motor is

• Click on "Step -” several times and move the changer to the right until the "End" signal
changes from 0 to 1.
• Click on "Step +” several times and move the changer to the left until the "End" signal
changes from 1 to 0.
• Click on "Step -” several times and move the changer to the right until the "Barr" signal
changes from 0 to 1.
• Click on "Step +” several times and move the changer back until the "Barr" signal changes to
0. Recheck whether 2 to 3 further steps are required to ensure that the surrounding field
image lies in the center.
Note: This signal change should occur 2, or better 3 steps before the centered image position is
reached (light spots of the surrounding field illumination are laterally symmetrical to the
crosshairs of the display).
If the switching point of the light barrier is not positioned as required, the position of the
actuating flag must be aligned.

Adjusting and saving the changer steps

Note: The horizontal position of the overview image is determined by the changer steps. A
change of the changer step will not change the measurement position.
The vertical position of the overview image is determined by the position of the CCD
camera.
• For a centered overview image, the values displayed under "Step" and "New" should be
identical. If this is not the case, save the value under "New" to the EEPROM as new value by
clicking on "Set".
• Close the "Motors" window and switch between the "Surrounding field" and "Keratometer"
modes several times; while doing this, check whether the images are laterally centered
relative to the crosshairs of the display in both cases.
Note: During the alignment and manual setting of the changer it may happen that the
synchronization between the stepper motor and the computer is lost. This becomes visible
by a large offset of the image when approaching one or the other changer position. In this
case, shut down the computer and switch it off and on again.
