Cure Memory function
The last settings used, together with the combination of
curing program and curing time, are automatically
saved.
Start
The light is switched on by means of the start button.
It is recommended that the emission window of the
light probe is placed directly on the material to be
polymerized. Once the selected curing time has elapsed,
the curing program is automatically terminated. If
desired, the light can be switched off before the set
curing time has elapsed by pressing the start button
again.
Acoustic signals
Acoustic signals can be heard for the following
functions:
– Start (Stopp)
– Every 10 seconds
– Curing time change, you hear the acoustic signal
twice when changing to the Turbo program
– Inserting battery
– Error message
Light intensity
The light intensity is maintained at a consistent level
during operation. If the supplied 10>8 mm light probe
is used, the light intensity has been calibrated to
2,000 mW/cm
2
± 10%
If another light probe than the one supplied is used, it
directly influences the emitted light intensity.
In a light probe with parallel walls (10 mm), the
diameter of the light entry and the light emission
window is the same. When using focussing light probes
(10>8 mm light probe, Pin-Point light probe 6>2 mm),
the diameter of the light entry is larger than that of the
light emission window. The incident blue light is thus
bundled to a smaller area. In this way, the emitted light
intensity is increased.
Pin-Point light probes are suitable for spot-on poly-
merization, e.g. to fix veneers before the removal of
excess. For complete polymerization, the light probe
must be changed.
