IMPORTANT: Please note that when switching from Name, first Name... mode to ID Number, all data records without an ID Number will not be listed (entry of an ID is not essential). This also applies to switching from ID Number to Name, first Name... if a name was not previously entered.

• Send Data to PMS:
  
  
  • Choose old, if the connected office management system only allows import of data of interface software versions 1.01 to 2.02 (patient data, measured values).
  • Choose new (requires option A plus), if the connected office management system can import all offered data according to interface software version 3.0 and higher.
  • COM speed provides a choice of standard transfer rates in kBaud.

• Keratometer:

  If you activate the Adjustment aid, a traffic light will asist the corneal curvature measurement. When the optimum measurement position for the patient has been reached, the traffic light will change from red to yellow to green. If Automatic measurement is also activated, as soon as the best possible adjustment to the patient has been reached and the traffic light display turns to green, pressing the knob on the joystick will automatically trigger three successive measurements. Following a software update, this function must be calibrated prior to first use.

Program settings/Export file output textbox

Program settings/User adminstration textbox

IMPORTANT: The option Operator login with password and screensaver, together with password protection, should not be activated further users (see below) have been registered and their passwords entered.

As soon as you have confirmed the new program settings with OK, a login dialogue will appear. From now on the IOLMaster can only be used by logging in with password. The default setting is user Admin with the password 0000 (4x zero) in the User Database. To change the password select the option Change password, enter your user name and old password and confirm with OK.

IMPORTANT: If you change the Admin password, you are advised to note down the new password, e.g. in the IOLMaster record book. The user management system cannot be accessed without the Administrator password. If the password is lost, a number code will be displayed after three unsuccessful attempts. This number code will enable service personnel to reset the device. Unauthorized persons may under no circumstances use the service password. The safety warranty for the medical device will otherwise become invalid!

In addition, a screen saver with a freely adjustable interval can be activated. The screen saver appears if the IOLMaster has been inactive for longer than the set interval. This prevents unauthorized access to protected patient data.

NOTE: The Password protection option offers added protection. If this is activated, you will only be able to work with the IOLMaster and its database after logging on again with the password.

• User Manager: Click on the User Manager button. The dialog box on the left-hand side under the User Management in the User Manager permits further users to be registered (with the New button), their password to be specified (Password) or users to be deleted (Delete).

Program settings/User administration User Manager textbox

Each user may be a member of one or more user groups. For this purpose, highlight the respective user. The user groups to which this user belongs are shown in the right-hand window Membership. The user can be assigned to one of the following user groups by clicking on ADD.

• The Administrator has unrestricted access rights to User Management, the User Database and the Setup menu.
• The Surgeon only has an access right to the respective tab in the User Database. This tab is created automatically when the user account is established in the User Management.
• The Assistant has no right of access to the User Database.

All user groups may enter/rename patient data and perform measurements / calculate IOL's. Users who are not members of any of the above user groups may work on the IOLMaster in the usual way, but they may not change any of the system settings. To remove a user from a user group, highlight the name and click on REMOVE.
