Selecting The Curing Time; Activating And Deactivating The Exposure Cycle; Measurement Of The Light Intensity - Kulzer Translux 2Wave Mode D'emploi

6.1

Selecting the curing time

The Translux 2Wave can operate with four diff erent exposure cycles:
• Exposure with slowly increasing output: " Soft-Start" (cycle duration 20 seconds).
The " Soft-Start " means increase of light intensity from 50% up to 100% within 2 seconds.
• Exposure with constant output: cycle duration 20 seconds, 10 seconds or 5 seconds.
Press the " Time / Program " button
the curing modes on the display.
The selected exposure time is indicated (in the display) by a round spot next to the selection.
NOTE
When the " Soft-Start " program is selected, round spots
simultaneously lighten next to each icon
Each time the " Time / Program " button is briefl y pressed, the display setting advances
to the next lower exposure curing mode in a loop.
NOTE
During the light emission the " Time / Program " button is inactive.

Briefl y press the " STAND-BY " button
Once the curing cycle is complete, the unit will automatically turn the light off .
Acoustical signal:
The following acoustical signals (beep) are emitted:
1 beep while press the " STAND-BY " button.
1 beep after 10 seconds of exposure time (only 20 second Mode).
1 beep at the end of the exposure time.
NOTE
The exposure cycle can be interrupted at any time, before the exposure time is over,
by pressing again the " STAND-BY " button.
Acoustical signal:
An acoustical signal ( beep ) is emitted, when the " STAND-BY " button is pressed to interrupt the cycle.

Measurement of the Light Intensity

The charging unit of the Translux 2Wave is equipped with an integrated light intensity meter ( 8 ).
CAUTION
Before each treatment always check the light intensity by using the light intensity meter
integrated in the Translux 2Wave charging unit.
• Without applying pressure, place the light guide fl at and directly on the testing area ( 8 ).
Activate the unit by pressing the " STAND-BY "
The light intensity measuring is immediately indicated by the 2-colour LED (Symbol
of the testing area.
GREEN LED : The light intensity is suffi cient for the treatment.
YELLOW LED : The light intensity is insuffi cient and patient/s must not be treated.
CAUTION
If the light intensity is insuffi cient, please carry out the following controls and measures:
– The light guide has not been inserted into the hand piece (see paragraph 5.4 Inserting the fi bre optic
into the hand piece).
– Check the light guide for contamination or defects.
– Clean the light guide of any contamination (see paragraph 8 Cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation)
or replace the damaged light guide with a new one.
Use original Kulzer light guides only.
