Adaptive Light Control plus
(ALC plus) function, optional
The light model TruLight 5000 can be
optionally fitted with the Adaptive Light
Control plus (ALC plus) function.
Alongside the basic ALC func on ⑤, the
ALC plus function can automatically control
various LED groups of the light modules
depending on the distance of the light head
① to the wound area ④.
• The laser ③ for detec ng the distance is
installed in the handle adapter of the
handle ②.
• If the light head is repositioned during
surgery, a movement sensor activates the
distance detection. The distance of the
light head from the wound area is
automatically detected with the aid of a
laser beam.
• The light intensity is automatically
adapted to the working distance on the
basis of the measurement data.
• Switchover between automatic distance
detection and manual adjustment of the
distance is performed by pressing the
keys
Auto
⑥ or
Manual
⑦.
