Instrument Setup
EMR Setup
The Phoroptor VRx can connect to an EMR system one of two ways, depending on the capability of the
EMR system. Contact the EMR company to find out if the specific EMR system is configured to support
one-way or two-way communication.
One-Way EMR
One-way communication means the EMR system can only accept data coming in. This configuration
requires pre-test equipment to send data to the Phoroptor VRx, then all of the data (the pre-test data and
final refraction data) would transfer to the EMR. Refer to Figure IS-23.
Note: If there are multiple lanes with Phoroptor VRx systems, they will need to be connected via
daisy-chaining. This will allow all pre-test data to be transferred to each Phoroptor VRx system.
From there, each Phoroptor VRx can load the pre-test data and send all of the data to the
EMR system. Refer to the Daisy chaining Multiple Phoroptor VRx's section for more detailed
information on this setup.
Two-Way EMR
Two-way communication means the EMR can send pre-test data out to the Phoroptor VRx and receive
final refraction data in from the Phoroptor VRx. At the end of the exam, the Phoroptor VRx will send only
final refraction data out to the EMR. Refer to Figure IS-24.
