•Never position the unit where it will be exposed to moisture, direct sunlight, dust, salty air,
chemical storage areas, excessive temperature or humidity. It should be used and kept in
normally controlled living environment, within a temperature range of -22°F to 131°F,
humidity levels between 30-95%, and an atmospheric pressure range of 700hPa-1060hPa.
•To ensure smooth operation, install the unit in a stable place, free of uneven floors, vibration
and shock.
•Stand unit should also be positioned in a way that allows ease of disconnection of its switch
and power plug.
•Prior to operation, always check that all the cords are properly connected.
•Take the proper steps to stop the unit (leaving the patient in a safe condition) if anything is
found wrong with the unit. Use the power at provided rated voltage.
•Never hold and pull the connecting cord for disconnecting plugs. Excessive force may be
applied and cause damage to the inside connections. If the unit has not been used for a long
period of time, check the operation and safety features prior to using it again.

4. INSTRUMENTATTACHMENTS
Instruments or Applied Parts that connect to the IS-5500 must be mounted and configured
properly before operation. The IS-5500 was designed for use with Topcon instruments.
Adjustments and/or modifications may be required for other brands of instruments or tools.
Disposal of all connecting instruments or applied parts are to be in accordance to their product
manuals.
4.1 Refractor
Mount the refractor onto the end of the refractor arm by removing the set screw in the
end of the shaft, sliding on the refractor, tightening the locking c lamp, and reinstalling
the set screw through the refractor clamp into the shaft. This keeps the refractor from
sliding off of the arm. If a computerized vision tester is used, repeat the same process
except feed the cable through the wire channel in the top of the arm extrusion then into
the top hole in the IS-5500 pole. Connect to the vision tester power supply.
4.2 Slit Lamp
Mount the Slit Lamp onto the end of the S-arm by placing the pivot pin (on the bottom
of the tabletop) into the S-arm bushing. Lock the Slit Lamp on the arm by tightening
the knob. Plug the cord into the transformer box. Refer to section 5 to counterbalance
the arm.
4.3 Rechargeable Instrument Handles
The instrument console is supplied with three recharging wells for use with
rechargeable instrument handles. Simply inserting them into the well charges the
instruments. Green indicator lights are provided at each well to indicate that the
instrument is in a charging condition. If the light is not lit, then the instrument is not
charging. The wells are wired at the factory at 3.5 volts DC.
4.4 Indirect (BIO)
Indirect being used is not to exceed 14V, 3A. Plug the indirect into the twist-lock BIO
connector on the back of the stand (see Figures 1 & 3). Hang the indirect headset onto
the hanger.
4.5 Chart Projector – Optional
The chart projector may be mounted on the wall or on the IS-5500. If it is mounted on
the IS-5500, the chart projector arm supports any automatic chart projector. The arm
has a 0.75-inch diameter socket for mounting a projector. The maximum extension of
the arm with load, is 7 inches, and has a capacity of 22 lbs. (10 kg).
WARNING: All instruments that are attached to the IS-5500 shall be IEC
60601-1 3rd Ed, AAMI ES 60601-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 60601-1
compatible.

stand using the provided low voltage control cable onto the back of its bottom shroud.
This will allow the chair to go up/down using the stand control panel.
5. SYSTEM OPERATION
Each of the control panel buttons performs a specific function. Refer to Figure 2 for the locations
of the buttons on the control panel.
5.1 Main Power Switch
The main power switch button controls the power to the system and is located on the control
panel. Press on the power button to switch to ON prior to performing any examinations.
A green LED, located next to it, will light to indicate that the system power is ON.
Figure 2: Control Panel
5.2 Lamp Switch
The LAMP power and dimmer switch controls the power and light intensity to the overhead
lamp. Press ON/OFF to switch the overhead lamp ON or OFF. This switch has to be in the
ON position to control the overhead lamp using the dimmer. To adjust brightness of the
lamp, simply press the ▲ or ▼ (UP or DOWN) button under LAMP.
Warning: Lamp head and lens are hot during use. Do not touch them. Use the lamp handle
to position the overhead lamp.
5.3 Chair-Control Switch
The exam chair height can be controlled from the control panel. Press the ▲ or ▼ (UP or
DOWN) button on the control panel to adjust the chair to the desired height.
5.4 Chair Auto-Return Button
Pressing the AUTO button on the control panel will return the chair lift to its lowest position.

6 2031005680 Rev. C, 06/2016
5.5 Auxiliary Receptacle Button
The auxiliary buttons, AUX 1 & 2, control the power to the auxiliary receptacles located to
the right of the circuit board assembly inside the IS-5500. These receptacles are
recommended for chart projector or any other desired equipment connections.
5.6 Charging Wells
Three (3) smart Charging Wells are available to recharge handheld instrument batteries.
Charging well will perform fast charge if inserted instrument handle is low in charge level.
Once handle is fully charged, charging well will turn to trickle mode to maintain charge
level. Normally the handhelds will maintain full charge if placed in the well during the day.
A well is charging if the green LED is lit. Well charging will not stop even if the main power
switch is turned OFF. It will stop only if the stand is unplugged from power.
Warning: Do Not Touch Wells Contact and Patient simultaneously.
5.7 Indirect (BIO)
Once BIO is plugged in and functional, use the dimmer knob in the back of the stand to turn
the BIO ON/OFF and to control the intensity of the light.
Figure 3: BIO Control and Hanger
5.8 Roomlights
The Roomlight kit allows the IS-5500 to be an independent control of the room light
environment. Once it has been wired and roomlight cable has been plugged in and set-up by
a qualified technician, use Roomlight functions on the control panel (Figure 2) to control the
room light.
Press ON/OFF to switch the room light ON or OFF.
(NOTE: The following dimming functions are only provided for incandescent lighting only).
Roomlight switch has to be in the ON position to use dimming functions.
