IOLMaster — Data Management.

Transmitting/exporting data (optional feature)

Patient data can be exported to

• connected office administration systems or personal computers
• a USB storage medium or a CD-RW.

The data is then available for further processing.

NOTE: Transmitting/exporting does not work in the Patient Manager, only in measurement modes!

Exporting data to another system

• Data can only be exported to office management systems by the supplier of such systems. Please contact the respective supplier.
• The appropriate accessories are required for exporting to a connected Windows-based personal computer. These can be obtained from Carl Zeiss Meditec. They include a serial cable (null modem, female/female connector) and software (on CD ROM) to be installed on the PC. Data is imported to a database on the PC. From there, data can be exported to other file formats. The graphs of axial length measurements are made available in JPEG format.

To export data press the <S> key (not in Patient Manager!) or the SEND button. The data will be exported.

NOTE: The PC must have been switched on and the software for data receipt started. A progress bar will be visible on the screen of the IOLMaster. Data can be archived on the PC or processed in the appropriate form.

The export of measured values depends on whether the additional software Option A plus is installed:

• Without Option A plus: only the measured values and the marked IOL will be exported.
• With Option A plus the measured values and all calculated lenses will be exported (see User Database), depending on the setting in Program Settings/Export.

• Select the desired storage medium in the menu Options - Setup - Program settings/Export (see User Database).

NOTE: If you wish to export to a CD-RW, you must insert a formatted CD-RW into the drive. The CD-RW must be formatted elsewhere (e.g. office PC) in UDF format. Alternatively, use one of the formatted CD-RWs as supplied. For exporting to an USB flash drive the latter should enable at least a transfer rate to USB-1.1.

To export data to a USB storage medium or a CD-RW press the <X> key or the EXPORT icon.

Data will be available in a text file conforming to the export settings (see User Database) for archiving and data analysis.
