EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Configuration of the apex position (mode M2)
On the LCD panel the levels of the
scale of the canal length are divided
in the colors yellow, blue and red.
As soon as the area becomes
visible on the canal apex the yellow
color will blink, alerting the start of
the measurement.
The scale is divided in 3 levels,
where each level represents 0,1 mm
of the apex area. The spare yellows
represent the narrow area of the
canal apex where they are defined in
5 levels and can be adjusted.
Press the SET key, the apex mode will blink; the last position of the apex configured will
blink, adjust the apex position in a 0,0 to 1,0mm range by pressing the keys "ADJUST+"
and "ADJUST-". Three (3) seconds after the last touch the apex mode will stop blinking and
the configuration will be saved.
Generally the narrow area is between 0.2 and 0.3mm of the canal apex. By initiating the
procedure the equipment will detect the beginning of the measurement.
By initiating the procedure the equipment will show the distance between the tip of the
file (A) and the canal apex (B), according to scale below on the LCD panel.

reaching the ideal level "APEX", where this word will be blinking on the panel, when the tip
of the instrument reaches the foramen.
ATTENTION: If the instrument outreaches the apex, the word "OVER" (which represents
the exceeding area of the apex) will be blinking followed by intermittent beeps.
The labial clip can be disconnected from the instrument and connected again during

APEX
When you reach the apex, slowly spin the file counterclockwise
until the meter reaches again 0.5 mm. When the scale of
length of the narrow area on the LCD Display is in 0,5 mm the
file will have reached the desired position, i.e., in the area of
the root apex. Position the rubber stop on the tooth surface as a
reference point to determine the length of work of the root canal.
Reminding that as soon as the file reaches the 2,0 mm position
of the canal apex, continuous beeps will sound.
After the 0,5mm scale the beeps shall be short and frequent
