1.1 About This Manual

1.1.1 General Information

This Service Manual is the field service reference for troubleshooting, repair, adjustment, and
calibration of the Humphrey Acuitus Models 5000, 5010 and 5015 Automatic Refractor/ Kerato-
meters.

The service manual is designed to support Level 1 field service, which employs modular
replacement of printed circuit boards and other assemblies that are most effectively repaired at a
central repair facility. This is the service strategy used in U.S. domestic field service, and
presented in Humphrey training classes. See section 1.3 for additional information regarding
Level 1 and Repair Center service.

The procedures in this manual assume that the reader is familiar with operation of the instru-
ment. Complete operating instructions are contained in the Acuitus Models
5000/5010/5015 User’s Guide. Information presented in the User’s Guide is not repeated
in this Service Manual. The User’s Guide can be ordered separately by standard Humphrey
parts order. Refer to section 7.7.1 for the User’s Guide part number information.

The general layout of the service manual is shown below. For greater detail, please refer to the
Table of Contents.

1.1.2 Conventions
The following conventions apply in this manual:

P Left and Right sides of the instrument are as viewed from the front (patient's
position) of the instrument, unless noted otherwise.
P Dimensions are given in inches unless noted otherwise.
P All tool sizes for screws and nuts mentioned in the instructions are metric unless
noted otherwise.

1.2 About Service Bulletins

Field Service Bulletins are a vital element of service support. Bulletins are used to quickly convey
technical information on a variety of field service topics, including:
P instrument design changes P service manual revisions
P technical problems and P upgrade announcements/
corrections procedures
P software updates P system checkout – checklist
P new troubleshooting proce- P service disclaimer forms
dures
P problem alerts

Service bulletins are used to issue revised pages for service manual updates. Anyone on the
service bulletin distribution list will automatically receive updates to the Level 1 service manual.
Your service bulletins should be filed where easily accessible for quick reference.

NOTICE
Field Service Bulletins are Confidential and Proprietary, for the sole use of personnel
employed by Humphrey Systems, Humphrey affiliates, and authorized Humphrey
distributors.
Humphrey has a well-deserved reputation for high quality, reliable instruments,
unsurpassed in the industry. However, in the hands of an unethical competitor,
relatively minor issues discussed in service bulletins can be distorted to cause the
instrument owner unjustified concerns regarding the instrument.
As a Humphrey affiliate, employee, or distributor you are required to
handle your service bulletins as appropriate for proprietary and confi-
dential information.

Acuitus 5000/5010 General Information

1.3 Acuitus 5000/5010/5015 Service Strategy

A two-level service strategy is used for the Acuitus: 1) Level 1 for on-site service, and 2) Repair
Center service.
Level 1 service employs modular replacement, wherein faulty circuit boards and certain other
assemblies are replaced rather than repaired on-site. These faulty assemblies are shipped to a
Humphrey Repair Center for repairs. There are also certain procedures that require special
equipment available only at a Repair Center.
Designated Repair Centers (currently Dublin, CA and Oberkochen, Germany) are the second
level of service for the Acuitus. The Repair Centers perform major circuit board troubleshooting
and repair, plus any other service action that requires special equipment or procedures not
available in the field.
Several of the circuit boards in the Acuitus are multilayer boards and use Surface Mount
Technology (SMT) components. These boards require special equipment and techniques for
troubleshooting and repair.
The Acuitus service procedures listed below must be performed at a Humphrey
Repair Center. All other service procedures can be performed in the field.

Many of the major assemblies require special tooling and procedures for alignment. Before
loosening any part refer to table 3-1, in section 3 of this service manual, to determine the
required tooling and procedures.

Parts shown in boldface in the list below must not be loosened. These parts require alignment
with special equipment available only at the Repair Centers.

1.4 Precautions

The following precautions should be observed whenever the Acuitus is being installed or
serviced. Point out to the customer any potential hazard and the appropriate corrective action.

WARNING: The LCD display panel and associated circuitry can

deliver a severe electrical shock. Always employ standard high-voltage
safety precautions when working around the LCD circuitry. DO NOT
use metal tools when working near the LCD display panel circuitry.

General Safety Precautions

1. The instrument is equipped with a grounding-pin power plug. The instrument must be
plugged into an outlet with a properly grounded receptacle.

2. Ensure that the fuses installed in the instrument and the power table are of the proper
rating.

3. Use of an extension cord is not recommended. Doing so may compromise the safety of the
operator and/or patient.

4. Do not overload the AC outlet being used to operate the instrument.

5. If the power cord or plug on the instrument is damaged, a shock or fire hazard may result.
Do not allow continued operation of the instrument until the damaged cord or plug has
been replaced.

6. To prevent personal injury and damage to the instrument, do not place the instrument on
uneven or sloped surfaces.

7. Ensure that the instrument is installed on a stable, vibration-free surface.

1.6 System Overview

The Acuitus uses a refractive method known as the “retinoscopic principle” to provide sphere
and cylinder readings. This principle can be explained in basic terms as follows: If somebody
would look at the retina of a patient from outside the eye, the portion of the retina the observer
would see would depend on the refractive error of the patient’s eye. For low myopic patients, he
would see a smaller area than for high myopic patients; for hyperopic patients, the image of the
retina would be rotated by 180 degrees compared to myopic patients. Therefore, once it is
known exactly what part of the retina can be seen from the outside, the refractive error can be
determined.

In the Acuitus, four photodiodes, shaped and arranged like four quarters of a donut (the “quad
detector”) are used to look at the retina of the patient. Once we know what part of the retina
the quad detector sees, we can calculate the spherical and cylindrical components of the patient’s
refractive error.

Refer to figure 1-1.

The optical assembly generates a beam of infrared light, which is projected into the patient’s eye
and onto the retina. In the optical path of this beam (the “source path”) sits a chopper disk very
similar to the one used in the Humphrey Lens Analyzer. This chopper disk has transparent and
opaque sections, delimited by curves in the shape of an Archimedian spiral (this shape has certain
benefits, which shall not be explained here). When the disk is rotating, this pattern creates a
circular spot of light, with a diameter of about 2 mm. The rotating chopper disk casts shadows
across this illuminated spot. The quad detector is imaged by the optics onto the corneal plane of
the patients’s eye and observes the illuminated spot (which the source path generates on the
retina) through a pinhole imaged at the back focal plane of the eye (which would be the retina,
for an emmetropic eye). When the rotating chopper disk casts a shadow across that spot, the
four detectors see this shadow appear (and later disappear) at different times. The chopper disk
has timing marks at its edge, which are counted by an edge detector. The system therefore
knows exactly by how much the chopper disk has turned at any moment in time. When one of
the quad detectors observes a light-to-dark or dark-to-light transition, the corresponding position
of the chopper disk is recorded. As the geometry of the optical paths, the chopper disk patterns,
and the quad detector is known, the system can calculate exactly where on the retina this
detector has been looking (because it saw the shadow at those particular times). From these
positions, the refractive error of the eye can be determined.

The chopper disk rotates at a rate of ten revolutions per second. Each revolution generates one
measurement set. Every set is checked against several criteria to ensure accurate data and to
discard bad measurements (e.g., due to patient movements, etc.). A rolling average is calculated,
consisting of the ten most recent measurements, and displayed on the screen. Measurements are
taken continuously; the system stops measuring once the joystick button is pressed and displays
the last average.

General Information Acuitus 5000/5010

The refractive error of the eye is defined for a completely relaxed crystalline lens, i.e., the patient
is looking at infinity. If the patient is looking at objects close by, the ciliary muscles increase the
refractive power of the crystalline lens in order to bring these objects into focus. A system which
shall measure the refractive error of the eye accurately, must, therefore, guarantee that the
patients’s accommodation is relaxed and the eye is looking at a distant object. The Acuitus
achieves this by means of a moving acuity target. An image of a balloon, which appears to be
coming from a distant point, is presented to the patient. In order to get the patient to look at this
image, we have to correct whatever refractive error may be present. For a nearsighted patient, a
far away image will look blurry - up to a point where the image cannot be recognized at all and
the patient doesn’t know where to look or how to accommodate. The Acuitus, therefore, uses
the first refractive measurement to move the acuity target into focus and relax the
accommodation of the patient. Once that has happened, all subsequent measurements should
be accurate.

P In addition to the drawings in this section, the parts drawings in Section 7 provide
useful reference for parts identification and relative locations during removal/
replacement procedures.

P References from one procedure to another are shown in the form "(x.x)."
EXAMPLE: In the Optics Head Removal procedure, one of the steps is to "Remove
the optics head covers (3.4)." If you need further details for removing the optics head
covers, you can refer to section 3.4, and then return to the Optics Head Removal
procedure for the next step.

P Step-by-step procedures are provided when needed; but, when adequate, only
essential replacement notes are given. Simple removals that are clearly obvious are
not described in this manual.

P Unless noted otherwise, the steps for replacement (reassembly) are simply the reverse
order of the steps for removal, and are not listed. Replacement (reassembly) notes
are included as needed.

P All screws and nuts mentioned in the instructions are metric unless noted otherwise.

P In this manual, the terms left, right, front and rear of the instrument are as viewed
from the patient position, unless noted otherwise.

P To facilitate later reassembly of the instrument, consider labeling each connector

during disassembly.

P Proper cable and wire routing is important. Before disassembly, observe the cable
routing and locations of the cable ties; then be sure to route the cables exactly the
same during reassembly. Be sure to replace all cable ties removed during

Acuitus 5000/5010 Troubleshooting

5.1 Introduction

The troubleshooting aids in this section will help you to diagnose operating difficulties and system
malfunctions in the Acuitus 5000/5010. As Field and Repair Center experience identifies
recurrent problems and appropriate diagnostic processes, this section will be expanded to include
additional troubleshooting aids.

5.2 General Guidelines for Assembly Level

Troubleshooting

On-site assembly level troubleshooting poses unique and complex challenges to the Field Service
Representative. In addition to identifying and replacing the faulty assembly, the Field Service
Representative must often travel great distances to the customer location, resolve operator errors,
and identify power and environmental causes of problems while satisfying the customer's
perception of quality service.
A structured approach to resolving field problems can greatly increase customer satisfaction and
the Field Service Representative's effectiveness. There are seven major tasks in resolving field
equipment problems:
Prior to Going On-Site While On-Site
1. Obtain a Service History for the 4. Have the Operator Demonstrate the
Instrument Problem
2. Query the Operator of the 5. Resolve the Obvious
Instrument
6. Substitute the Failing Assembly
3. Check for Field Service Bulletins
7. Confirm the Repair
that Address the Problem
Each of these tasks is explained below.

Prior to Going On-Site:

1) Obtain a Service History for the Instrument.
Knowledge of previous problems will assist your troubleshooting efforts. Find out when
the last Preventive Maintenance (PM) service call was performed (if applicable). If a PM
is due, or will be due shortly, be prepared to perform this task in addition to the repair.

47881B091599 5-3 Service Manual

Troubleshooting Acuitus 5000/5010

2) Query the Operator of the Instrument.

Get a description of the problem and inform the operator that you will need him/her to
demonstrate the problem to you when you arrive. A description of the problem should
include the symptoms displayed and also the type of problem. Determining the type of
problem helps you establish your approach to solving the problem and confirming the
repair. All problems can be broadly categorized into one of three types:

! Solid Failure - the problem presents itself continuously.

! Intermittent Duplicable - the problem is intermittent in nature. Usually a
specific sequence of events reproduces the intermittent symptom, although
occasionally these problems may be random in nature. By performing the proper
sequence of events, the problem can usually be reproduced. If a sequence of
events readily reproduces the problem, examination of this sequence of events
may help identify the faulty assembly.
! Intermittent Non-Duplicable - the problem is intermittent, and all reasonable
attempts at recreating the symptoms fail. These are the most difficult problems to
resolve.

3) Check for Field Service Bulletins that Address the Problem.

If a service bulletin addresses a resolution, be sure to take the necessary equipment to
perform the changes.

While On-Site:
4) Have the Operator Demonstrate the Problem.
This is very important. Before doing anything, always have the operator attempt to
demonstrate the problem to you. By having the operator demonstrate the problem,
you may solve the problem immediately, or avoid some incorrect assumptions. Having
the operator demonstrate the problem will ALWAYS result in one of the following:
P Reveal Operator Error - You may immediately see that the cause of the
problem is operator error. You then have the opportunity to train the
customer in the proper use of the instrument, instead of spending time
troubleshooting a nonexistent instrument problem.
P Demonstrate specific problem sequence - The operator will show you
the specific sequence of events needed to reproduce the problem, reducing
your diagnostic time.
P Help Form Ideas - The operator may not be able to duplicate the
problem. However, the sequence of steps used to demonstrate the problem
will give you ideas on how to pursue the problem in other ways. In this case
you have the opportunity to explain to the customer the difficulty in resolving
a nonduplicable problem.
5) Resolve the Obvious.
Obvious mechanical or physical defects should be resolved when discovered. Often,
resolving the obvious will lead you to the real problem.

Service Manual 5-4 47881B091599

Acuitus 5000/5010 Troubleshooting

6) Substitute the Failing Assembly.

Once you have deduced which assembly is at fault, or is suspected to be at fault, it
should be substituted with a known good assembly.
7) Confirm the Repair.
After an assembly is replaced, confirmation should be made by reinstalling the failing
assembly to witness the original symptom. You are then assured of the effectiveness of
the repair, and of the need to utilize your spare assembly. Also, the number of No
Problem Found PCBs returned to Depot repair facilities is greatly reduced.
Confirming the repair to the customer often helps to bolster confidence in your abilities.
To avoid repeat service calls it is especially important to confirm intermittent problems.
Time spent confirming a repair is time well spent.
If the problem still exists, reinstall the original assembly that you removed, then continue
troubleshooting.

Solving Solid Failures:

It is usually straightforward deductive logic or electrical checks that will lead you to replace the
faulty assembly. After replacement of the assembly in question resolves the symptom, it is
imperative that you CONFIRM THE REPAIR by reinstalling the original assembly and
witnessing the original symptoms again. For many assemblies this is the only means of
positively verifying that the replacement circuitry has resolved the problem.

Solving Intermittent Duplicable Failures:

These failures are resolved in the same manner as solid failures but always require more time
to resolve and confirm.

The frequency of the problem helps you determine how long it will take to verify a repair. A
good rule of thumb when troubleshooting intermittent problems is: 2 times the frequency of
the symptom gives an 80% confidence level of the repair.
EXAMPLE:
Problem
The problem appears only about once an hour. The sequence of events needed
to reproduce the problem leads you to believe a circuit board is the likely
cause.
Solution
The suspected circuit board is replaced. To provide an 80% confidence level
that the circuit board resolved the problem, the instrument will need to be
tested for 2 hours without failing.

Solving Intermittent Non-Duplicable Failures:

These failures present the greatest difficulty to the Field Service Representative. The most
effective means for resolving these types of problems requires careful thought and the
utilization of all available resources that the Field Service Representative possesses. It is

47881B091599 5-5 Service Manual

Troubleshooting Acuitus 5000/5010

important that before replacing an assembly, good solid rationale for its replacement be
developed and a backup plan devised in case replacement of the assembly does not affect the
symptom. It is best NOT to replace any hardware until solid rationale for replacement is
clearly evident.

Once an assembly is replaced by a Field Service Representative, the customer's expectations

are set for a hardware resolution to the problem. This can prove to be a handicap. A good
sequence to follow for resolving intermittent non-duplicable problems is:

1) Analyze the service history in detail. Look for trends or the possibility of a previous
repair inducing the problem.

2) Query the operator(s) at length for any other clues such as:
P Times of failures;
P More failures with certain operators.

3) Watch the operator set up and use the instrument.

4) Check all Field Service Bulletins.

5) Contact other Field Service Representatives involved in previous repairs.

6) Look at the operating environment - static, power, grounding, temperature or rate

of temperature change, humidity, etc.

7) Contact your Technical Support Specialists.

8) Keep a record of everything you've done to solve the problem.

9) Document the customer service report. Record what you feel should happen if the
problem returns. This will help a different Field Service Representative in the
resolution of the problem.

10) Give the customer a thorough update on the situation.

11) Educate the customer on logging pertinent information that may benefit a Field
Service Representative should the problem return. Often, engaging the customer
in the pursuit of a solution emphasizes the difficulty of the situation. In some
instances, the customer may welcome the feeling of being involved in resolution of
the problem.

only in emergencies.
The Parts Department phone number is 877-HUMPHREY (877-486-7473).

There is a $25.00 minimum for customers ordering parts or supplies. Customers are also billed
for shipping charges (most items are shipped UPS).

7.4 Parts Orders — International Service Operations

For International Service Operations, please use the ordering procedures that have been
established for your area of operations, and which meet the requirements of the Humphrey
International Parts Department.

7.5 Returning Instruments / Defective Parts

When equipment needs to be returned to Humphrey Systems for repair, it is important that it is
properly packed for shipment, and that authorization for return is obtained before the equipment
is shipped.

NOTICE — Costs to repair equipment damage caused by improper packing for

shipment to Humphrey Systems become the responsibility of the sender.

7.5.1 Equipment Return Authorization

Authorization must be obtained from Humphrey Systems before equipment is returned for
repair. A Return Goods Authorization (RGA) number is required on each return shipment to
Humphrey Systems. The procedure for obtaining an RGA number varies, depending on your
area of operation. Use the procedure that has been established by Humphrey Systems for your

7.5.3 Returning Defective Parts

The return of defective subassemblies is a very important part of our operation. Subassemblies
are rebuilt and returned to service stock, and are available as needed by our Service
Representatives. Our inventory is kept low to keep operating costs down.

When you return parts or assemblies to the Repair Center, attach a paper tag to each assembly.
On the tag, list the following information:
P the serial number of the instrument from which the part was removed
P the date of removal
P the problem (if you could not find the problem, describe what the customer reported,
and add "CND" - Can Not Duplicate)
P the part number of the part/assembly being returned
P your territory number (U.S. Domestic Reps)
This information will enable the Repair Center to make repairs as efficiently as possible. (For U.S.
Domestic Reps, tags are available from the Parts Department.)

NOTE - International Operations: Additional procedures are necessary for return

of defective parts from international service operations. Instructions have been provided
to each area of operation by the Humphrey Systems International Parts Department. If

regarding the procedure, please contact the Humphrey Systems International Parts
Department.

When you receive spare parts from the Parts Department, save the packaging material for
returning the defective part for repair. Many of the parts are delicate and expensive; extra
attention to packaging will pay off in less damage to parts during shipment.

7.6 Recommended Spares

Parts that are recommended as spares for supporting field repairs on the Acuitus are not
indicated in this manual. Instead, please refer to service bulletin ACT-002.

Sparing of small hardware (screws, washers, etc.) is necessary, but is left to the discretion of the
individual service technician.

7.8 Illustrated Parts Breakdown

The drawings on the following pages provide illustrated parts breakdowns of the instrument.
The parts drawings are keyed by item numbers to the associated parts lists.
Parts listed without a part number are not available separately — order the next higher assembly.

Caution — Many parts on the optics head require critical

factory alignment or adjustment. These parts are marked with a
• symbol in the following parts lists. These parts are not field
replaceable and are shown and listed for identification only. DO
NOT loosen or remove these parts; doing so will require
the optics head be shipped to the Repair Center for realignment.

For part numbers of individual cables, refer to the System Interconnect diagram
in Section 6 (Figure 6-1). Cables that do not have a part number listed in
Figure 6-1 are supplied only as part of an associated assembly shown in this
parts section.

A.2 The Special Tools - What They Are / What They Do

A.2.1 Service Calibration Diskette

This is a 3.5" floppy diskette that contains calibration software and is required when performing
specific Acuitus calibrations. With the instrument power switched Off, the diskette is inserted into
the instrument’s floppy drive and the power is switched On. After a delay, the Calibration
Startup Screen will be displayed on the LCD.

A.2.2 Carousel Mount Tool

The Carousel Mount Tool is a cylinder with open sides, open ends and protruding IR windows.
After removal of the head covers, retaining ring, and IR window, the Carousel Mount Tool
attaches at three points to the front of the optics head. The tool acts as a stand, supporting either
the Level Tool or the Carousel Calibration Tool. Figure 4-1 illustrates the correct positioning of
the Carousel Mount Tool.

A.2.3 Tension Tool

The Tension Tool is a cylinder with open ends, machined threads and four plunger springs. The
Tension Tool is used with the Level Tool and Carousel Mount Tool when centering the
Calibration Block to the optics path. The Tension Tool is screwed into the instrument’s eyepiece
after the Carousel Mount Tool is mounted. Figure 4-1 illustrates the correct positioning of the
Tension Tool.

A.2.4 Level Tool

The Level Tool is a disk with a small bubble level at the top and five pinhole openings at its
center. The Level Tool is used with the Tension Tool and Carousel Mount Tool when centering
the Calibration Block to the optics path. The Level Tool attaches to the Carousel Mount Tool
after the Tension Tool has been mounted. Figure 4-1 illustrates the correct positioning of the
Level Tool.

A.2.5 Carousel Calibration Tool

The Carousel Calibration Tool is a drum with several test lenses positioned along its outside edge.
Each lens can be positioned in front of the instrument’s eyepiece by simply rotating the drum.
The test lenses are used during both calibration and calibration verification. The flashing LED
required for the Chopper Motor Offset Calibration is also part of the Carousel Calibration Tool.
The Carousel Calibration Tool attaches to the Carousel Mount Tool. Figure 4-4 illustrates the
correct positioning of the Carousel Calibration Tool.

Appendix A Acuitus 5000/5010

A.2.9 Static Protection Kit

The Static Protection Kit is essential for protection of the Acuitis against electrostatic discharge
whenever you are disassembling or handling Acuitus circuitry. The kit contains the following
items:

# a bench mat with permanently attached alligator clip ground lead;

# a banana plug lead with snap connector;
# an adjustable wrist cuff.

The static protection kit must be properly grounded, and you must be wearing the wrist cuff
whenever working on the Acuitus with the covers removed.

To use the static protection kit:

1) Connect the bench mat alligator clip to a known good electrical ground point.
Any unpainted screw or chassis surface on the Acuitus is an acceptable ground point,
provided that the Acuitus has its power cord connected and is plugged
into a grounded power receptacle.

In situations where work is to be performed on the Acuitus and it is undesirable to

have the unit plugged into a power receptacle, an alternate grounding point is
necessary. Usually, an acceptable ground point can be found at the cover screw for
the AC power outlet. It is useless to use the static mat without it being properly
grounded.
2) After properly grounding the bench mat, connect the banana plug lead into the
bench mat connector.

3) Connect the wrist cuff to the snap clip on the banana plug lead.

4) Adjust the wrist cuff to fit snugly around your wrist. The wrist cuff should always be
worn when working on the Acuitus with the cover removed.
