1 Safety Guidelines Please read the machine operating manual (BDA) thoroughly. Please note that the machine is hooked-up to an electrical power outlet with the same voltage as indicated on the machine identification plate and is grounded according to the local requirements. The ground prong on the plug must never be cut or bent in such a way that the machine cannot be electrically grounded.

Menu selection in different lens modes In mode 1 and 2 you can select several menu`s that are indicated by capital letters (A, B,..) The selection depends on how the decentration data is applied by the optician. In total there are 9 different decentration menu`s indicated as 1 A 2 C etc.
Decentration process The decentration menu`s differ from each other since the decentration process depends on the different lens types. In total, 9 menu`s are available. Decentration menu selection: 6 Menu`s with box measurement decentration (DIN 58 208 bzw. DIN 58 200): 1A, 1C, 1D, 3H, 2A, 2C 3 Menu`s with decentration to frame rim (RAL RG 915) 1B, 2B, 2D...
