OPERATION (Continued):
1. Press the power switch in the upper right hand corner of the
unit. The power indictor will turn red and yellow during self-
test. Successful completion of self-test is signified with a
quick sequence of light illumination on the front panel and an
audible indication if sound is turned on. The power indicator
will turn green indicating the unit is ready for normal opera-
tion. The self-test sequence should take only a few seconds
to complete.
2. Attach the stainless steel lip probe securely to the patient's
lip at the corner of the mouth. Secure contact to the patient's
oral mucosa is crucial for an accurate measurement reading.
3. Attach the file clip assembly to a file or reamer. Attach the file
clip to the upper part of the file near the handle. The cutting
part of a file can damage the file clip.
4. Verify all cable assembly connections are secure to the lip
clip, file clip and the unit. A poor connection can prevent
accurate measurement. Do not pull on the cords of the cable
assembly when attaching or removing the clips or when dis-
connecting the cable assembly from the unit. This could
compromise the electrical connection integrity inside the
cable assembly.
5. Insert the file (usually size 10) into the root canal until the
unit indicates one bar above apex target. Advance the file
with slow clockwise turns until Apex is indicated.
6. Illuminating the red L.E.D. bar at the bottom of the indicator
column with a solid audio tone, if sound is activated, indi-
cates perforation.
7. Turn the file with slow counterclockwise turns until the unit
indicates one bar above apex target again. This procedure
will provide assurance that the apical constriction has been
identified and the indication is not due to a non-apical con-
striction inside the canal.
8. Position the file marker on the surface of the tooth as a refer-
ence to determine the canal's working length.
9. Press the power switch again to turn the unit off. The unit will
automatically turn off after 20 minutes of no display activity.
10.Always take an x-ray to check the results.
