6.4 Light Intensity Measurement
to determine whether the light intensity is sufficient:
1. Place the optical fibre tip (Figure 8 at page 18 - ref. A) flat, on the surface of the light-
intensity sensor without pressing it (Figure 8 at page 18 - Ref. B);
2. Press the on/off button (Figure 8 at page 18 - Ref. C) to switch on the lamp.
The test LED (Figure 8 at page 18 - Ref. D) will indicate the measured light-intensity:
• Green = light-intensity suitable for effective treatment;
• Yellow = light-intensity insufficient.
CAUTION: If the working luminous flux is not sufficient, do not proceed with the treatment
on the patient and carry out the following checks:
1. Make sure that the optical fibre is correctly inserted onto the handpiece;
2. Check whether the optical fibre is dirty. Clean the optical fibre (see
19 ).
3. Check whether the optical fibre is damaged and, if appropriate, replace it with a new one.
If these measures do not lead to improved performance, place the device out of service (by
disconnecting it from the mains) and make sure that it cannot be started by unauthorised
persons. Any repair work on the device should be carried out by an authorised Mectron service
centre.
