1. Introduction INTRODUCTION
You have purchased the most advanced Composite
Processing System on the market. Years of research
have been used to develop the science that has been
incorporated into this system.
A. System Contents

The TESCERA TM * ATL TM * System
consists of:
TESCERA ATL Processing Base Unit
(Figure 1.1)
B. TESCERA Product Description
The TESCERA ATL System is a composite processing
system designed to work with Bisco’s state-of-the-art
TESCERA composites for indirect restorations. The
TESCERA ATL System** uses a unique combination of
pressure, light and heat to cure specially formulated
composite materials. The TESCERA ATL System consists
of a "smart" base station and two cups. The light cup is used
for pressure and light curing of incremental build-ups of
larger restorations. The heat cup provides pressure, light
and heat, and is used for final curing of incremental
build-ups and for single step mass curing. The "smart" base
station recognizes either cup and performs the appropriate
cycle. It is the responsibility of the user to select the proper cup for
the desired step.

Pressure and light (light cup): The pressure and light cycle
intentionally leaves an oxygen inhibition layer for improved
adhesion between successive layers. The first part of the
pressure and light cycle subjects the restoration to pressure
only, which reduces defects and porosity in the composite
while it is still compliant. The second part of the pressure
and light cycle maintains the pressure and light-cures to
harden the composite.
Pressure, light and heat, under water (heat cup): This cup
adds a heat cycle in addition to the already described pressure
and light sequence. The restoration is immersed in
water (which does not have any adverse effect on the
uncured composite). Heat is transferred quickly to the
composite via water, which, with the help of a special
additive, eliminates the oxygen inhibited layer, allowing a
completely cured, very hard polymerized surface. Heat is
transferred completely through the material providing a
complete depth of cure regardless of the shade, thickness
or shape of the restoration, or how the restoration is
mounted and supported. Because of the heat transfer, this
cup can be used for curing of a single mass of
composite without concern for uncured material that is not
exposed to light.

1. Place the restoration in
the bed of white reflection
beads in the light cup.
(Figure 3.1) The bed
of beads acts as a
support for the work
by holding the dowel
pin upright as well as
being a reflector and
diffuser of light.
The light cup handle is
gray. (Figure 3.2) Use 1,
2 or 3 stacking cup inserts
to position the restoration
close to the top of the cup,
but below the rim. Transfer
the light beads from insert
to insert, as needed,
depending on size of die,
model and restoration.
Offset each cup so the
solid portion of its bottom
rests on the legs of the one
below it.
2. In STANDBY mode, the
RUN LED will blink slowly
(once every 2-3 seconds).
Insert the light cup in the
base. (Figure 3.3)
The unit will beep when
the cup is properly inserted
in position. (Figure 3.4)
and the RUN LED will
blink fast (once per second).
The base is now in
the READY MODE. The
base will acknowledge the
light cup and display _L.
For additional options, see
Advanced User Section.
3. Press the START button
(Figure 3.5) and the cycle
will begin. The base has
detected that the light cup
is inserted and will
automatically run the cycle
of pressure and light

The system uses a unique
inflatable seal (Figure 3.7)
between the top surface of
the cup (Figure 3.8) and
the bottom of the upper
pressure chamber.
(Figure 3.7) This allows the
cup to be inserted and
removed with minimal
resistance, yet provides a
sufficient pressure seal.
The cup material is treated
to harden the surface, but
care must be taken to keep
the top surface from
getting nicked, dented,
scratched, etc., or the ability
of the cup to seal against
pressure will be affected.

base will run at low speed. Once the unit has reached the
appropriate temperature and begins cooling, the fan will
turn back on, indicating the unit is in the cooling stage.
During the last 30 seconds of the cooling cycle the
FINISH LED will blink fast (2 times per second), indicating
the cycle is in the last 30 seconds. The display will count
down from 30 to 0 to indicate the time left in the cooling
cycle.
6. If the cooling cycle is not completed in 7 minutes, there is
a possible fault of the main fan or the cup thermostat is
stuck open. The unit will cool an additional 20 minutes and
ERROR CODE 10 will be displayed (see Troubleshooting
Section). When the finish indicator comes on, along with
the ERROR light, remove the cup. The operator must
determine if the main fan is working. If so, press and hold
START and CANCEL for 5 seconds to reset. When the cup
is put back on the base, it will be tested to determine if the
thermostat has failed.
7. When the cycle is complete and all air pressure has been
released, the FINISH LED will light steady, the RUN LED
will turn off, and the unit will give a short beep.
8. The cup can now be removed.

4. Advanced ADVANCED User Operation USER OPE
A. Sleep (Energy Saver) Mode
The SLEEP mode is
intended to be used for
long periods of inactivity
of the unit. When the
unit is in STANDBY
4.1
(RUN LED blinks once
every 2-3 seconds, no
cup in base), it can be
placed in SLEEP mode. In SLEEP, the main fan and
lamp fan are turned off, and the bottom segments of the
display are blinking (like eyes closed).
Entering SLEEP Mode
To enter SLEEP mode from STANDBY, push and hold
the SLEEP button for 1 second. (Figure 4.1) If the unit
has just completed a cycle (heat or light), there will be a 5
minute delay before the fans shut down to allow the unit
to properly cool. The display will count down from 5 to
0 in 1 minute intervals as the unit prepares to enter
SLEEP. Once in SLEEP, a light cup can be
inserted in the base to "close the opening", if desired. If a
heat cup is inserted, an error message “HC” will be displayed
and the ERROR LED will come on
accompanied by a beep every 5 seconds. The heat cup
must be removed.
Exiting SLEEP Mode
If a light cup is in place in the SLEEP Mode, it must be
removed before re-awakening, or the ERROR LED and
the message “CP” will be displayed. To exit SLEEP, press
and hold the SLEEP button for 1 second. The display
will change from “_ _” to “oo” (eyes shut to eyes open),
and a short beep will be emitted. The unit will perform
self-test then return to STANDBY and be ready to accept a
cup.
B. Light Cycle Extension
The user may increase the lamp on time during the light
cycle if desired. When doing incremental build-ups on
large bridges or crowns where shadows may reduce light
penetration proximally and at margins, longer light cycles
are helpful.
1. After inserting a light cup in the base, the RUN LED is
blinking fast and _L is displayed.

2. Normal (default) light
exposure is 1 minute. To
extend, press and release
the CANCEL button.
(Figure 4.2) Light
exposure time will extend
to 3 minutes, and the display
will read 3 L.
3. Press start to begin, or press and release the
CANCEL button again (see Figure 4.2) to extend the
light exposure to 5 minutes. The display will read 5 L.
4. Press start to begin, or...
5. ...to return to a 1 minute light exposure, press and
release CANCEL one more time. (see Figure 4.2) Display
will read _L.

Gray Light Cup
(Pressure and Light)
Black Heat Cup
(Pressure, Heat, Light
and Water)
The light cup uses pressure and
light. This light cup should be
used for an increment cure. Place
restoration(s) in light cup instead
of using a hand held light or step
light. Use the TESCERA reflection
beads to fill stacking cups and
adjust to desired height. The beads
serve as a reflection bed and also
support the die(s).
Note: The incremental cure, which
takes place in the light cup, forces
porosity out of the composite with
pressure and then light-cures.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE
WATER IN THE LIGHT CUP.
The final cure: Place restoration(s)
in the basket and insert into the
heat cup for complete
polymerization. Pour water into
this cup, just covering the
restoration(s). Add an oxygen
scavenger capsule to the water.
Place heat cup in curing unit and
turn on.
Note: This process heats, pressurizes,
and light-cures the restoration(s).
The water distributes the heat
evenly and keeps an air-inhibited
layer from forming.
CAUTION: ALWAYS USE
WATER IN THE HEAT CUP.

Step 1. Apply a thin layer of die
hardener or ultra thin
cyanoacrylate glue (ie. “SUPER-
GLUE ” ) over the preparation die
extending over margins. (Remember
to have blocked-out all undercuts.)
(Figure 5.1)
Step 2. Apply one thin layer of
TESCERA Separator over the
preparation, slightly extending over
margins. Gently wipe or blow off
all excess Separator. (Figure 5.2)

Step 5. Apply TESCERA Incisal
Composite and cure incisal layer
in light cup. (Figure 5.5 & 5.5a)
Step 6. You should now be able to
remove the restoration from the die
and place it in the heat cup for the
final cure. Fill this cup with water,
just covering the
restoration(s) and add an oxygen
scavenger capsule. This process
fully polymerizes and removes the
oxygen-inhibited layer.
(Figures 5.6 & 5.7)
Note: If more incremental
polymerization is needed, refer to
the Advanced User Operation
Section.

Step 4. Apply TESCERA Body
Composite over the dentin
layer and cure the body layer
in light cup. (Figures 5.4 & 5.4a)
WARNING: DO NOT TRY TO SPEED COOLING
PROCESS IN ANY MANNER. LET RESTORATION
COOL AT ROOM TEMPERATURE. TRYING TO
REDUCE COOLING TIME (ie. BLOWING AIR) MAY
RESULT IN FRACTURE OR REDUCE LIFE SPAN OF

B. Alternative Technique
Step 7. Remove the restoration
from the curing unit, finish, and polish
or glaze.
(Figures 5.8, 5.9 & 5.10)
Note: You may use TESCERA
Sculpting Resin to aid in building
and manipulating the composite
material. Do not mix or incorporate
Sculpting Resin into the composite
material, as it will cause the
material to cure prematurely. With all
TESCERA composite materials,
avoid unnecessary exposure to
ambient light, as it will cause the
material to cure prematurely.
You may build your restoration in
any manner you wish. It is not necessary
to use the light cup.
You may build the restoration
and go into the final
5.11
cure using the heat cup.
If you choose to do so,
you will need to pour a
separate model and die as you will be unable to remove
the restoration from the die. Placing the restoration and
die in the heat cup (Figure 5.11) will result in the die being
destroyed, similar to a refractory die. This is due to the
high temperature and pressure. The light cup should
only be used as an increment cure, tacking the composite
into place using pressure and light, preventing porosity
throughout the whole restoration. Do not use the light
cup for the final cure.
C. TESCERA Polishing Paste
5.12
• Use a bristle brush or a cotton
buff wheel at a low speed
impregnated with TESCERA
Polishing Paste.
• In a slow circular motion, polish the surface of the
restoration. (Figure 5.12)
• Clean excess paste off of the restoration using a steam
cleaner and/or ultra sonic cleaner.
• Complete the polishing process by using a clean
cotton buff wheel.
Note: For a glazed finish, use TESCERA Glazing Resin
instead of polishing.
D. TESCERA Glazing Resin
5.13
• Thoroughly finish (pumice) the
area of the restoration(s) to be glazed.
• Rinse and air-dry (oil free).
• Apply a thin layer of TESCERA
Glazing Resin evenly, brushing on
smoothly in one direction.
(Figure 5.13)
• Light-cure for 5 minutes in a light booth or with a hand
held light such as Bisco’s VIP * for 20 seconds per surface
at 500 mw/cm 2 .
• When curing is complete, remove residue with
isopropyl alcohol, and wash with soap and water. If additional
layers of Glazing Resin are desired, do not remove
residue until all layers are completed.
E. TESCERA Separator
• Apply one thin layer of TESCERA Separator to the die.
(Die should be blocked-out and sealed before you
apply separator.)
• Blow off any excess separator with air, or wipe off
gently with tissue.
Do not leave pooled or excess Separator on die.
Composite will not adhere to the die if excess Separator
remains.
F. Add-Ons/Repairs
1. Prepare the composite surface by sandblasting or
roughening with a diamond burr.
2. Steam clean or rinse, and air dry.

6. Troubleshooting TROUBLESHOOTIN
The TESCERA ATL has built-in self-test and diagnostic features. Refer to the following chart of indicators and error codes
for an explanation of potential problems. When an error code is displayed, the cycle did not complete and reprocessing the
restoration is necessary. An error code during the cycle will cancel the cycle and require a system reset (unless
otherwise noted). After the problem has been resolved, the unit needs to be reset to return to STANDBY. (see Operator
Reset Section) For additional technical assistance contact Bisco at 847-534-6000 or your Bisco distributor.
If no display or LED’s are visible, check fuse and circuit breaker on back of unit. Note: there is a high current resettable circuit
breaker and a lower amperage replaceable fuse. If either are tripped or blown, no displays will be visible.

C. Loss of Power During a Light Cycle
The unit will automatically perform a depressurizing
sequence and the display will read 9. Remove the cup
and reset.
D. Loss of Power During a Heat Cycle
If power is lost during a heat cycle or the unit
malfunctions, the sealing pressure is maintained between
the cup and base. When this occurs, the cup may remain
locked in the base. (If power is lost during the heat cycle
and the pressure is released, a boil over can occur.)
When the power returns, the ERROR LED will be on, and
the unit will display an Error Code 17 to indicate the heat
cup is in the base. The unit will first check if the heat cup
is under pressure and above the safe removal temperature.
If so, it will cool and the ERROR LED light will be on
steady (Figure 6.1). This could take 8 minutes if the main
fan is operating properly or up to 1 hour if there is a
failure in the main fan. If not, the fan will run until the
cup cools, and the error light will be on steady. When cool,
the unit will beep and the FINISH LED will steadily light.
The ERROR LED will
also remain on until the
unit is reset. Remove the
heat cup and press and
hold the CANCEL button
and the START button
together for
2 seconds to reset. The
6.1
display will read "88"
(normal start-up
sequence), then go to STANDBY if no errors are present.
If any other code is displayed, an error was found during
the start-up sequence.
E. Manual Release of Cup
If the power in the unit
or a valve in the unit fails,
the cup may be removed
by manually releasing the
pressure in the seal. If
using the heat cup and
the main fan is not
running, wait one hour
6.2
for the unit to cool to a
safe temperature. Insert
a rigid object into the
small upper hole on the
left upper back, below
the left set of
louvers, and locate the
recessed black button.
(Figure 6.2) Press and
hold the button for
10 seconds (Figure 6.3),
6.3
which releases the
pressure in the seal, and
allows pressure in the cup
chamber to be released. It may take up to 30 seconds to
completely release all the pressure in the cup chamber.
CAUTION: DO NOT FORCE THE CUP OUT OF
THE BASE; IT WILL COME OUT EASILY ONCE
THE PRESSURE IS RELIEVED.
F. Cleaning
To clean the TESCERA ATL, gently wipe down with a
clean soft cloth dampened with dilute mild detergent.
Do not spray with aerosol or use abrasive cleaning
compounds.
G. Manual Cycle Cancel by Operator
Anytime during a light cycle, CANCEL will advance the
unit to the end of an unfinished cycle. During a heat
cycle, CANCEL is not active during the cooling phase.
If CANCEL is pressed during the heating phase, but
before the cup reaches peak temperature, an automatic
8 minutes of cooling is implemented before the cup can
be removed. CANCEL is not active during a fault
condition or during POST. CANCEL is not active in
STANDBY or READY mode as the cycle has not been
started.
