Introduction Indications for Use The VX65 is an automatic phoropter that determines the correction of the patient's eye by analysis of subjective refraction. The data is obtained by aligning various lenses then verifying the patient's visual acuity. The VX65 is a global system for defining the subjective refraction and the resulting prescription.
To avoid risk of electric shock or bodily injury, do not handle the electrical plugs with wet hands. To avoid risk of electric shock or fire, make sure the VX65's power cable is not damaged before plugging it into an electrical outlet.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the VX65, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.
Compliance Electromagnetic environment – guidance RF emissions CISPR 11 Group1 The VX65 uses RF energy only for its internal Class B function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment.
