1.1 Overview
The VX40 is an Automatic Lensmeter which provides a very accurate measure of
the refractive power of lenses and displays the spherical aberration, the cylindrical
properties and the axis of the lenses.
The Automatic Lensmeter also contains the P.D. (pupillary distance) measurement.
It can measure both uncut single lenses and framed glasses. Furthermore, it
provides automatic detection of multi-focal lenses.
This advanced next generation lens meter comes with an intuitive user interface to
enable the user to perform lens measurements simply and easily.
1.2 Scope
This manual contains information for the proper use, storage and maintenance of
the VX40, as well as important safety information.
For best results, before using the device, review this manual in its entirety and
become familiar with its contents.
