Operation Manual
3.2. Installation
To assure proper test conditions CP-200 Chart Panel should be mounted on the wall
perpendicularly to the patient’s line of sight. The distance from panel to patient’s eye can
be adjusted from 1.9 to 7 meters, depending on test room conditions. There is possibility
to change distance units from meters to feet (6,5 to 23,5 feet). For information on how to
adjust the distance please refer to chapter 4.1.
1. Each Chart Panel is supplied with wall mounting plate. Use three wall screws
(included in the package) to securely attach mounting plate to the wall.
2. Screw Chart Panel tightly to wall mounting plate using three screws.

If CP-200 Chart Panel is securely installed in its operating position, connect the power
cord to the panel first, then the plug power cord to the power outlet. Chart Panel will start
automatically. Flashing LED in the bottom right corner will indicate start-up process. The
panel requires approximately 30 seconds for initialization. When the LED stops flashing
and turns into green and the welcome screen is displayed, the Chart Panel is ready to use.
Install battery into remote control unit and enter Configuration MENU to set-up Chart
Panel options.
WARNING ! Before you start tests on patient you have to configure CP-200
properly. To acquire reliable test results it is necessary to set
proper distance between patient and the Chart Panel. Please refer
to chapter 4.1.
Configuration MENU

The Chart Panel allows for communicating with hearing and speaking impaired patients
not only during a regular examination, but also when they are being refracted. This mode
is designed to enable giving instructions and asking questions of deaf patients. It also
allows a proper examination of mute patients.
By displaying green and blue bars at the top and bottom of the display, the Smart Chart
makes it a simple task to deliver questions and instructions to the patient. The meanings of
these bars can be adapted by each practitioner, according to their needs and the level of
patients’ disability. Below, we present one way of asking questions and giving
instructions. However, if it does not fit your style of examination, change and modify it to
make it more useful for you. We also suggest you write down your instructions and
present them to the patient before conducting any tests.

Standard Pictures:
• When two bars, blue at the bottom and green at the top of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• Choice one is indicated by a blue bar at the bottom edge of the display.
• Choice two is indicated by a green bar at the top edge of the display.
• After you have seen both choices, you should decide which one seems clearer
and better by pointing with your hand in the direction of the bar which represents
the better choice ( down-choice one/up-choice two). It may happen that neither
choice seems perfectly clear. That is OK, simply choose which one seems better.
• If neither choice seems better than the other, indicate to both directions.
• The rest of the test will be conducted in this way.
• When two bars, blue at the bottom and green at the top of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• Choice one is indicated by a blue bar at the bottom edge of the display.
• If you recognize choice one, you are asked to point to an appropriate letter from
the chart received from the doctor.
• If you do not recognize choice one, point with your right hand to the side.

Hands:
• When two bars, blue at the bottom and green at the top of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• Choice one is indicated by a blue bar at the bottom edge of the display.
• You are asked to point in the direction to which it is ‘open’ (9 directions in case
of Landoldt Rings, 4 directions in Snellen E, 4 directions in ‘Hands’).
• Choice two is indicated by a green bar at the top edge of the display.
• You are asked to point in the direction to which it is ‘open’ (9 directions in case

9. WARNINGS
• Exercise care to locate the Chart Panel away from any hazardous sources.
• This Chart Panel emits a certain level of electromagnetic radiation that is within the
levels specified by IEC 60601-2-24 and IEC 60601-1-2.
• This instrument has been tested against the effects of external interference including
high energy frequency emission, magnetic fields and electrostatic discharge (for example
large motors, portable radios, cellular phones, etc.). It has been tested to the following
specification: EN 60601-2-24:1998.
• Excessive interference may affect the Chart Panel operation. If it occurs the failure
cause shall be removed.
• Fix the Chart Panel securely. If the Chart Panel falls down, do not use it because the
absence of external damages does not mean there is no damage inside.
46
Operation Manual
10. CHART PANEL MAINTENANCE
10.1. Cleaning
• When carrying out cleaning, the CHART PANEL shall be switched off and
disconnected from mains. After cleaning wait at least one minute before switching on the
chart panel. Cleaning shall be carried out using a piece of cloth moistened with cleaning
solution. Do not use organic solvents for the external cleaning of the Chart Panel such as
petrol, alcohol etc.
• The Chart Panel shall not be turned over because the cleaning solution can enter it.
WARNING ! When any liquid is spilled onto the Chart Panel the device shall
be immediately cleaned using a pad of gauze. After cleaning,
check for the absence of liquid in the mains socket. The presence
of liquid can cause shortening of the contacts. Clean the main
socket using a dry pad of gauze and then reconnect the Chart
Panel to the mains.

Operation Manual
10.2. Repairs
• In order to ensure long life time of Chart Panel, it is necessary to check periodically
its status and replace the parts if damaged.
• In the case on any fault of the Chart Panel immediately consult the Manufacturer or
the dealer.
• Repairs of the Chart Panel or periodical part replacements must be done according to
this Operation Manual.
• Disposal of the device, or parts of it, should be done according to local environmental
and waste disposal regulations. Do not dispose to the nature. Do not send back to the
manufacturer. Chart Panel components do not pose hazard to environment and can be
safely disposed in accordance with hospital protocol.
10.3. Checking
• Manufactures recommend periodical checks, at least one a year, which entails a check
