| Surface
Calculation Program: |
The
heart of the Visual Lab program. It allows you to select
lenses from the Lens Specifications database. This selection
is then combined with the patient’s RX information
and your equipment specifications in order to provide
dependable surface calculations. New laser printer surface
ticket and invoice formats now contain barcodes, trace
and seg graphics, bold print for important items, along
with many other new Rx details. |
| Lens
Specifications Database: |
Allows you to add, delete, search or change any of
the specifications for lenses you will be using in your
surface lab. Specifications for over 950 different lens
products are currently included in this database.
|
| Frames
Specifications Database: |
Holds information about frame names, their measurements
and other data to assist in the surfacing and edging
of lenses. Data can be added, changed, deleted, sorted,
or searched. (Note: You can import data into this database
if you are a subscriber to FRAMES Data Service.)
|
| Trace
Manager: |
Allows
for the management and storage of traces from frame tracers.
Trace modification is also supported along with the ability
to create a frame shape library. On screen graphics display
the trace in life size separated by the actual DBL. |
| Job
Tracking: |
Lab
operators can quickly retrieve tracking information about
a job by invoice number or patient name. Interfaced equipment
registers entries into the customer’s tracking file
automatically. Additional entries may be manually added
to the tracking data for any lab operations that do not
involve interfaced equipment. |
| Report
Capabilities: |
Production
and sales reports are produced quickly and easily in a
variety of chart styles. |
| Remote
Service Utility: |
Although
it is unusual to have a problem that cannot be resolved
with a phone call, Visual Lab now contains a remote service
utility. This program allows Visual Lab service personnel
to perform various trouble shooting operations and other
maintenance operations from almost any location in the
world through the modem in your computer. |

Lab Calculation Software |

Visual Lab is a full surface calculation package and
provides communications translation between several
different brands of surface and finish equipment. A
wholesale billing and retail point of sale package are
also included at no extra charge, however phone support
is not offered for the accounting and inventory functions
of the program. This package is primarily designed for
small to medium sized surface labs. The surface calculator
can be used in a multi-user-networked environment, but
the customer is required to purchase an additional licensing
agreement for each additional workstation. Special installation
procedures are required in a multi-user environment.

Lab Host Software |
Part No. 55646
This add-on works with Visual Lab to enable it to receive
remote orders through a modem over a dial-up phone connection
from the Visual Lab Remote Site program. The program

be used in a networked environment.
|
| Visual

of remote site orders that may or may not include a
trace. The remote site orders are transmitted through
a modem over regular dial-up phone lines. This package
is normally used to send orders to the Visual Lab Host
program so they can be processed through Visual Lab.
The program interfaces with a variety of tracers and
can be used in a networked environment.

Lab Trace Server Software |
Part No. 55647
This program acts as a trace server and translator
between various brands of finish equipment. It provides
almost unlimited trace storage capability limited only
by hard drive space. TraceServer is appropriate for
a finish lab that does not need a surface calculator
and can be used in a networked environment.
