Calibration and System Setup
Calibration (CAL):
Intended for use with reduction handpieces (1/8, 1/16, and 1/20 ratio
handpieces).
Press and release the "CAL" button to activate the Integrated Calibration System.
Aseptico suggests using the Calibration function in the following circumstances:
• At the beginning of each day
• After changing handpieces
The VCT will run the handpiece and console through a self test. Follow the on-screen
instructions shown below:
Step 1: Attach handpiece to motor.
Press Cal to continue or Mode to escape
Step 2: Free run test in progress
Please wait.
Step 3: Attach handpiece to dynamometer
Press Cal to continue or Mode to escape
Step 4: Load calibration in progress
Please wait.
If the handpiece is not properly connected to the dynamometer, the screen will display the
following message:
Dynamometer error. Try again?
Press: 1=Yes, 2=No
After a successful calibration, the screen will display the test results. The handpiece ratio
and gear efficiency (Eff) may vary from calibration to calibration. Try several calibrations
to familiarize yourself with expected results.
Results: Ratio = 16.00 Eff = 62%
Press Mode to return to normal operation
After calibration, press the Mode button. The Aseptico VCT will automatically set the hand-
piece ratio for the tested handpiece to the exact ratio found by calibration measurements.
