III
:
Use precautions Before Use CAUTION • Do not use the unit for other than its intended purpose.
NIDEK will not be responsible for accidents or malfunction caused by such carelessness.
• The following environment conditions must be maintained during use. Conditions in use Temperature: 10 to 35ºC (50 to 95ºF) Humidity: 30 to 75% (non-condensing) Pressure: 800 to 1060 hPa No hazardous dust or smoke Moreover maintain the environmental conditions described on the manual of your PC during use. • For connection, configuration, and installation of NAVIS-EX, see the NAVIS-EX Installation Manual. • Connect a cable to the interface connector securely, maintaining a correct orientation of a connector of the cable. Data transmission will not be performed properly.
During Use CAUTION • For correct use, this manual is needed. Especially, the cautions for safety and operating procedures must be thoroughly understood before using the software.
By using the software outside of the Operator's Manual, unexpected failure or adverse event may occur. • A license is necessary for use of this software. Purchase the quantity needed. • If no communication or communication failure occurs on a network, check the network condition. • When the network is connected with equipment other than NAVIS-EX, virus infection or falsified data may occur. Ensure that it is proper operation condition under an administrator. • If improper network settings are made, network failure may occur. Ensure that proper settings are made under an administrator. • The measurement function of this software offers reference information of the distance conversion based on pixel measurement. • Read the instruction manuals for your computer or Windows, and observe the general rules. • There is some part that is different in operatability with the standard Windows. So please be sure. • Change the patient with a device other than the capture terminal. If the patient is changed with the image capture terminal, an unexpected operation may result.
IV
:
CAUTION • Do not change the patient or exit NAVIS-EX when acquiring images, reading files or processing images.
It may cause unexpected errors or corrupt the image data. • Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display monitor to the best ones. • The tone of printouts produced from printers may vary according to the used monitor and printer. • After turning-on of the device, do not remove the communication cable. Connecting error occurs and reinstallation following to the procedure is required to continue the use. • Do not set the PC standby mode (screen saver and power off). In standby mode, capturing by the connected device is not possible. After recovering from standby mode, data transmission cannot be performed properly. • Do not change the set language. • When using multiple terminals, upgrade all terminals to the same version. If different versions are used, the database file may be corrupted. • If the examination data of a patient that is already displayed on other terminal(s) is to be opened, the image may not be displayed. In such a case, return to the Image List screen and retry to display the examination data. • When a USB device is added, drive assignment is changed and backup or restoration may not be performed correctly. Check the location for storage or restoration before performing the operation. • Even if backup is set to be performed, if the power is not turned on or if the backup location cannot be found, backup is not performed. • When using NAVIS-EX, the NAVIS-EX folder automatically created on the drive where NAVIS-EX is installed must have write authority. Confirm the user is logged in with authority to use NAVIS-EX.
V
:
After Use CAUTION • Maintain the surrounding temperature and humidity at the following ranges during transport and storage of the instrument.
Environmental conditions Temperature: -10 to 55ºC (14 to 131ºF) Humidity: 10 to 95% (Non-condensing) Pressure: 700 to 1060 hPa A place with low dust A place not exposed to direct sunlight • Be sure to back up data to an external memory such as a USB hard disk. If the NAVIS-EX software or the hard disk drive is corrupted, the stored data will be unusable. • Operators should be responsible for managing their data. NIDEK assumes no responsibility for a loss of data. • Never shut off the personal computer before shutting down Windows. The programs or data in the computer may be corrupted.
Maintenance and Check CAUTION • This application needs no regular maintenance. • For data protection, to make a backup to USB hard disk etc. on a daily basis is recommended.

The NAVIS-EX image filing software is software that acquires data from the following NIDEK fundus photography devices and files it for easy transfer to external systems. • NAVIS-EX alone cannot acquire the data directly from the fundus photography device. • Capture text information can be added to images acquired from the following NIDEK fundus photography devices. However, the images must be saved with the XML information added. • For devices other than NIDEK fundus photography devices, jpeg and bitmap files can be acquired. However, capture text information cannot be acquired.
Connectable devices: AFC-230/AFC-210
NON-MYDRIATIC AUTO FUNDUS CAMERA
AFC-330
NON-MYDRIATIC AUTO FUNDUS CAMERA
F-10
OPHTHALMOSCOPE
RS-3000/RS-3000 Advance/RS-3000 Lite
OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY
Image data can be transferred by network or e-mail. NAVIS-EX is equipped with functions for image drawing, image processing, image measurement, panorama image creation, stereo image observation, composite image creation, and followup. (According to the image, available functions are limited.) NAVIS-EX can construct a network among multiple terminals and refers to and edits data from the client PC.
Server
The server PC stores and manages data. Be sure the server is activated when referring to the data with client PCs. When using a PC in stand-alone mode, set the PC as server. When connecting the RS-3000/RS-3000 Advance/RS-3000 Lite to other devices, prepare other server PC. However, for the AFC-330, the RS-3000/RS-3000 Advance/RS-3000 Lite can be connected as server.
Client
Acquires (Captures) the data by connecting the fundus capturing devices. The client PC refers to and edits data. Four PCs at the maximum can be connected to the network at the same time. * The connecting devices can be increased by adding the license.
When viewing the F-10 movie, the movie can be viewed for only the connected device.
• For changing and adding method of the connecting devices, see the Installation manual.
