Briot Accura CX, low lens count in great condition, patternless edger that gets the job done reliably on all materials including glass!
Essilor Kappa N95 patternless edger, National Optronics 4T...

I had this issue when I purchased my Accura cx out of storage. I did the procedure you posted and it worked. You also may be able to replace the battery on the board if your electrical soldering...

I'll figure freight for the machines and lap cabs to Ocala, Florida...

Do you want the edger?

Someone must have a need for some lab equipment out there...
Three Coburn 505 cylinder machines with a full set of plastic laps in cabinets for the bargain price of $1000 is a very good deal!
If no...

Yes I do have a full set of laps organized in two roller-drawer cabinets

I do still have the cylinder machines- email with photo sent... Thanks

Quick update on the solenoid situation-
I found JA Optronics here on Optiboard and spoke with John about it. He knew exactly what caused the problem and better yet how to fix it and prevent it from...

Nevada slipped a repeal of a tax on ophthalmic goods through about a decade ago. Voters thought it was a great idea to get rid of a tax, what they failed to read in the small print of the question...

Thanks for the response chaoticneutral. I've seen the solenoid pack on ebay before this happened to my machine so I looked at the system. There are three individual solenoids that share a common...

Hi All-
My Briot Accura XL has stopped pumping water. None of the solenoids are allowing water through. The pump is working as it should with plenty of pressure. I checked the shared ground of the...

I have a triumph tracer that won't connect serially to my kappa edger. It's have to be a heck of a deal for me to buy anothe tracer and edger that I don't know works. I did just purchase a Briot...

Scott,
is it either a Kappa or Gamma tracer? I have a Kappa N95 edger that will only work with a Kappa or Gamma tracer blocker. Do you have a pic?
Thanks, Michael

Hi Scott,
Do you still have the Kappa tracer/blocker? Would you consider selling it seperately?
Thanks, Michael

OK, Time to make some space.

I have three Coburn 505 cylinder machines. Theses are the table top models so they're much easier to move around than the very heavy full cabinet models. Two of the...

Does anyone have an Essilor Kappa or Gamma tracer they'd like to part with?

I'm interested in your Briot. Please pm me with info

@ Thumbs, Thank you for the very generous offer of testing my board. I'll check with some local lab buddies I've known over the decades for a Kappa board here in the Reno, NV area as well. In...

Thanks for the reply. I spoke with a service tech at Coburn and he says my RS232 port driver is blown on the Kappa's motherboard. As the N95 model is obsolete there are no parts like that in stock....

Update to running the national optronics 4t tracer with an Essilor Kappa N95 edger:
I spoke with Bruce at Optivision but we couldn't figure out how to get the edger to communicate with Optivision...

I picked up the Kappa edger, Triumph tracer and pc with Optivision software as a package from a lab that closed so I don't know if Optivision would want to help me figure out how to make the system...

I have seen a Gerber translator set up between a 4ti and a Kappa edger so I bought one on ebay for a great price but it may not function. Guess I'll find out when it shows up this week. I'll look...

I wish there were a way to set Kappa edger up to communicate directly with the 4t tracer and operate as stand alone. I don't need trace history too badly anyway. I've tried that but I think third...

Thanks MO,
I think I've tried the flow control as well as baud rate options. But will double check with your suggested settings in Optivision. The Kappa is pretty limited on what can be changed from...

Thank you for the reply. The Kappa job history is erased so I can't pull up an old trace. When the system was moved/disconnected, it gave the same error codes with the Triumph tracer (it all worked...
