| Features |
| Selectable measuring modes |
| Choose from either Full
Auto, Auto, or Manual to
match the situation. In
Full Auto mode, you
can set the TX-F to take
1 or 3 measurements
for each eye, and it will
perform alignment and
measurement on both eyes after you press the Start
button. Printout or data transfer can be automatic. In
Auto mode, alignment and measurement are
automatic, with only one measurement taken at a time.
And in Manual mode, you have full control over
alignment and focusing using the trackball and roller.
Guides are marked on the central alignment ring to
make it as easy as possible to align the two bright dots
reflecting on the patient's cornea.

| IOP warning display |
| The TX-F helps you diagnose ocular hypertension
without delay by displaying a warning message
whenever high pressure is detected. You can enter any
threshold value on the unit's settings screen, and this
will activate the TX-F's warning system for that value.
When running the TX-F in Full Auto mode, operation will
also be halted when the threshold is exceeded.

| Visual confirmation of errors |
|
Normally, if a measurement
error occurs, you can’t be
completely sure of its
cause. Not so with the TX-F.
When a reading can't be
made, the TX-F will show
you a snapshot of the
examinee's eye, giving you the information you need to
correct things. At a glance, you'll know whether it was
an eyelid, eyelash, or the eye being out of position that
caused the error. A short message will tell you what
action to take, such as adjusting the chin rest or limiter.
|
| |
| Display by order or reliability |
|
During measurement,
results are displayed near
the bottom of the monitor.
And, after the exam, you
can access a display screen
that lists IOP measurements
stored in memory. Internal
memory provide storage of up to 10 measurements for
each eye, and these figures can be listed either in the
order they were taken or by reliability.
|
| |
| Centralized controls and more |
|
Alongside the trackball and
roller, the TX-F features a
control panel that puts keys for
all major functions in one area.
So whether you're switching the
measurement mode or just want to adjust the chin rest,
you can get anything done with maximum ease. As an
added advantage, the design of the TX-F offers easy
access to the examinee's eye if necessary.

| Extremely soft air puff |
|
For most patients, the only thing remarkable—and
worrisome—about tonometry is the air puff. Which is
why it's important to ensure
that this puff is as comfortable
for them as can be. The TX-F
employs one of the most
delicate air puffs of any noncontact
tonometer.
|
| |
| Convenient in every way |
|
Benefits have been built into virtually every part of the
TX-F. When it’s not in operation for 3 minutes, for
example, the power-saving mode automatically kicks
in. Printing is fast, and an RS232C interface is
included for data transfer to an external device. In
addition, since the power cord connects to the bottom
of the unit, the TX-F
contributes to a tidy setup as
well.
