The Amazing newProcyonBe all that you can beProcyon is a new kind of light/sound experience,melding a full spectrum of color choices with clean, pure digitalsound. The resulting new mediaform can be used to modulate statesof consciousness in rich new ways.A palette of millions of colors-modulated bya variety of innovative visual effects-enables a new kind of audio-visualexperience, and can closely match color to the desired mental state.Procyon also has the ability to precisely synchronizeaudio material on a CD or MP3 with a Procyon program. This exclusivefeature, called SynchroMuse, is ideal for use with colour-work,language learning, hypnotherapy, personal growth and the immenselibraries of music now available.What is a light/soundmachine?Utilizing light and sound pulses at a specified frequency, thesemachines stimulate the mental activity in various ways, essentiallyleading perception from the waking state to a variety of alteredstates of consciousness.What are some examples of 'alteredstates of consciousness' and how do they differ from normalstates?.
Waking state: attentiondirected to surroundings. Includes agitated, restless/'monkeymind' states which are especially amenable to treatmentwith light and sound stimulation. 'Alpha' state:Relaxed, tranquil, daydreaming, 'inward awareness' state.Light meditation here, too. Hypnagogic, or 'twilight' state:Borderline sleep; deep meditation state; hypnotic state; accessto the unconscious mind and enhanced retrieval of memories; creativity,accelerated or 'superlearning', inspiration. Associatedwith increased theta brainwave activity. Trance state: Deep,dreamless sleep; deep rest. Often associated with increased deltabrainwave activityWho can benefitfrom this technology?Light and sound is an effective tool for anyone who wishes to explorealtered states of consciousness, awareness expansion and sensorystimulation, psychedelic-like visual imageray, and those seekingan entertaining path to relaxation.Is there anyone who should not usethis technology?Nearly everyone who uses light and sound stimulation report enjoyingit.
Sound in that category selected, in Manual Mode, and set to a nominal volume. After that, the unit will return to settings used when you last powered it Off using the Power Button. Press The Select Category Button to select the desired sound category, press the Select Sound Button to select the desired sound in that.
However, if you have a family history of epilepsy, are takingpsychoactive medication or have ever had a seizure of any sort,we recommend consulting your physician before using light and sound.Likewise, if bright light bothers you (i.e., can give you a headache),then light and sound may not be for you.What happens duringa session?With special light-bearing sunglasses over your closed eyes andheadphones over your ears, you are immersed in colorful dancinggeometric patterns and entrancing sounds. The light and sound pulserate shifts from state to state as the session progresses; mentalactivity will follow the pulse rate of the machine.What is achievedby experiencing these states of consciousness?The following are some of the areas being explored by users ofthese machines: psychological stress relief, deep relaxation, assistancein falling asleep, memory improvement, increased learning, stabilizingemotions, increased intellectual focus, lucid dreaming, sensorystimulation, and increased physical energy.

While some of thesebenefits have been substantiated by research studies, these machinesare experimental and results will vary from person to person.How important issound to the overall experience?Sound and music have been used for centuries in many cultures toalter consciousness. Drums, chants, and environmental sounds likewind and rain all provide strong mental pictures and associations.Pleasant sounds are much more enjoyable and relaxing than one-notebeeps or tones, such as those used by other machines. Synetic Systemsincorporates the most sophisticated sound generation circuitryof any light/sound device, employing digital wavetable synthesisto generate complex wave forms, rich two- and three-note harmonies,and moving audio sculptures. Use of special canfully synchronize the lights with the audio program. However, becausea much larger portion of the brain is involved in vision as comparedto audio processing, we can state that sound is less importantthan the lights as a means for achieving the desired states.What are 'binauralbeats'?Binaural beats occur when two sine (pure) waves of slightly differingfrequency are presented to the left and right sound channels: thedifference between the left and right is synthesized by the brainand perceived as a slowly modulated frequency.
This is known asa binaural beat frequency. This beat frequency is typically modulatedat the same frequency as the lights.Why are LEDs usedinstead of incandescent lights?Light emitting diodes–LED's–are state of the art solidstate devices that convert small amounts of electrical energy intolight.

The underlyingsunglasses have also been replaced by a more stylish, compactand comfortable model with flexible rubber earpieces. Surfacemount LEDs are very thin and emit a very broad beam of light;you'll find that these new LightFrames provide much moreuniform illumination of the eyelids, with none of the 'hotspots' whichplague the old-style glasses. This upgrade affects all currentlyshipping Proteus systems, and does not affect cost.Your PROCYON package includes:. Procyon control unit.
Red/Green/Blue compact GanzFrames™ with micro-miniatureLEDs. Stereo Headphones.

You can find all the manuals for the Proteus Here under X-rayThis is from the manual.Proteus XR/a Automatic Collimator Bulb Replacement Note1. The Proteus XR/a Automatic Collimator uses a special Collimator light bulb. When the collimator lamp burns out it MUST be replaced with the replacement bulb listed in the Proteus XR/a renewal parts section. Part number 2271727 MUST be used as a replacement bulb. DO NOT use any other lamp as a replacement bulb as X-ray field to Light field alignment may not meet HHS requirements.2. The Proteus XR/a Collimator bulb is selected to have the filament in the same place in all bulbs, and the position of this filament impacts X-ray field to Light field alignment. This selection process allows the bulb to be replaced by the end user with no alignment required for X-ray to Light field.3.

X-ray field to Light field is adjusted in the factory and will not be affected by bulb replacement if the specified bulb is used as are placement. There is no field adjustment for X-ray field to Light field alignment if another bulb is used.4. The Proteus XR/a Collimator lamp is designed to operate at 24vac for 150hrscontinuous, other replacement bulbs will burn out very quickly as they are only designed for 50hours continuous use at 24vac.5.
The Laser light has been aligned in the Factory. If you find the laser light needs alignment DO NOT attempt to align the Laser with a screwdriver in the light slot with power applied as this can cause damage to the laser electronics.
The Laser is not a field replaceable part and a new collimator should be ordered if there are problems with the alignment or functionality.
