8. READING THE MEASUREMENT DATA
The tonometer stores information on every complete measurement sequence of six
measurements. The stored information includes the calculated final eye pressure
reading in mmHg, time and date of the measurement, identification of the eye (right
or left) and the quality level of the measurement.
9. TROUBLESHOOTING
The tonometer automatically monitors and controls the measurement position and
speed of the probe during the measurements, and indicates errors with sounds
and lights. The following table instructs you in error situations and explains what
the different lights and sounds mean. The indicator lights are also presented in the
