2.2 Setting-Up System Parameters It is very common to interface HDR-9000 Digital Refractor with several different optometric instruments. But it varies from customer to customer that what kinds of and how many instruments are interfaced with. So it’s required for the engineer who installs and sets up refraction system at customer’s place to set up initial system parameters according to customer ’s needs and environment.
Refer to appendix for more detailed information about system setting. There are more parameters that customer can set up according to his or her flavor. Just refer to the Operator’s Manual and find the chapter that explains ‘System Configuration’ menu. 2.3 Using Engineer Mode When you’re referring this manual you may often encounter parts that ask you to execute ‘Engineer Mode’...
