Instrument Setup
Connect Multiple Phoroptor VRx External Devices
1. Setup the Auto Refractor and Lensmeter to communicate with the Phoroptor VRx closest to that
location, using wired or wireless connections to the Instrument 1 and Instrument 2 ports.
2. Connect the Central Unit of the first Phoroptor VRx to the Central Unit of the Phoroptor VRx
next in line, using a cable or Bluetooth dongle connection, according to the cables specified

Instrument 1 port on the next Phoroptor VRx receives the data.
3. Continue this process, until you connect all exam rooms with Phoroptor VRx systems. There is
no limit to the number of Phoroptor VRx units you can link together.
