SETTING UP THE TONOMETER
Setting up your Icare HOME tonometer is easy, with few steps. The following
subchapters describe how you get started.
9.1
INSTALLING OR CHANGING THE BATTERY
Lift the silicone lid that protects the USB port and keeps the battery
compartment cover in place. Open the battery compartment cover by
pressing the silicone lid slightly and sliding the battery compartment cover
as shown in the Figure 6.

2. Battery cover
Insert two CR123A lithium batteries in the correct order: (+) end upwards as
shown in the figure left. Close the cover firmly and press the silicone lid in
place to cover the USB port.
9.2
TURNING THE TONOMETER ON
Press the power button (20) to turn the tonometer on. The lights (14-19) are
turned on briefly. Following a brief pause, the Load light flashes on the back
panel to remind the user to load the single-use probe into the tonometer prior
to measurement.
9.3
LOADING THE PROBE
The Icare HOME tonometer uses single-use probes that are packed in a plastic
tube and wrapped in blister packs as shown in the Figures 8 and 9.
To load the probe:
1.
Unwrap the probe (Figure 10).
2.
Remove the lid of the probe container as shown in the Figure 11. Point
the tonometer upward.
3.
Drop the probe into the probe base by turning the probe container
upside down as shown in the Figure 12.
4.
Press the measurement button briefly (1 second) to activate the probe
(Figure 13).
5.
The probe moves rapidly back and forth (Figure 14).
6.
If the green Measure light flashes, the probe is loaded correctly and ready
for measurement (Figure 15).
