Calibration 

 
Daavlin recommends that dosimetry units be re-calibrated with an independent meter at least annually 
and/or whenever lamps are replaced.  This involves taking an output reading with a hand held meter 
(available for purchase or rent from Daavlin) and checking it with the output reading from the 
dosimetry system.   

 

Refilling a Light Prescription 

 
Unless otherwise specified by your prescribing physician, Daavlin home phototherapy devices 
equipped with FlexRx exposure limiting software are shipped from the factory with a forty exposure 
prescription.  Each time the lamps are turned on, the number of available exposures is reduced by 
one.   
 
When the machine is in sleep mode, the screen will display the remaining number of exposures.  To 
ensure no interruptions in your therapy, we suggest that you contact your physician for a “refill” when 
five to ten exposures remain.  Your physician will present a prescription to Daavlin and we will then 
contact you with a four digit refill code.  When all exposures have been used, the screen will display 
the word “PASS”.  You cannot refill until all exposures have been used.   
 
When your refill code is received, enter the four digit code using the same procedure  you would use 
to enter a dose or time and press Enter.  The display will show the new total number of treatments 
available and the device will be ready for use.
