EQUIPMENT OPERATION
The equipment has 4 levels of sound adjustment :
mute, low, medium and high, if you don't hear beeps,
clean the labial clip and the instrument.
On the LCD Display the levels of the scale of the
canal length are divided in the colors yellow, red and
blue. As soon as the area is visible on the canal apex
the yellow color will blink, alerting the beginning of
the measurement.
The scale is divided in 10 levels, where each level
represents 0,1 mm of the apex area. The spare yellows
represent the narrow area of the root canal apex where
they are defined in five levels and can be adjusted by
the functions button, if needed.
It's possible to adjust the 0,1mm to 0,5mm scale through the control of the length of
the narrow area. Generally the narrow area is 0,2-0,3mm distant to the canal apex.
When initiating the procedure the equipment will detect the beginning of the measurement
and will light the drawing of the file on the LCD Display.
Push the file, rotating it slowly clockwise
until the word "APEX" starts to blink. When
it reaches the apex, Mrotate the file slowly
counterclockwise until the meter Mreaches
0.5mm again. When the scale of the length of
the narrow area on the LCD Display is on 0.5mm
the file will have reached the desired position,
i.e., at the root apex.
Position the rubber stop on the surface of
the tooth 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 from the canal apex,
beeps will sound slowly from 2,0 to 1,0mm.
The duration of the beeps will raise according to the advancement, allowing the precise
location of the tip of the instrument on the apical area. Automatically it will change to
continuous range from 1,0mm to 0,5mm. After the 0,5mm scale the beeps will be short
and frequent reaching the "APEX" ideal level, where this word will keep on blinking on the
Display, when the tip of the instrument reaches the foramen.
CAUTION: If the instrument outreaches the apex,
the word "OVER" (which represents the exceeding
area of the apex) will keep on blinking followed by
intermittent beeps.
The labial clip can be disconnected from
the instrument and connected again during the
measurement cycle, without affecting its functioning.
It can be changed by one or another more adequate
during the root canal treatment or when another
canal is measured. In these cases the equipment
automatically detects that a new measurement has
been initiated.
