Acquisition of Radiographic Images

Turn on the PC that has the KaVo IXS installed and launch the imaging software,
such as VixWin Platinum (please refer to the software manual for information on the
software program).
1. Carefully plug the USB end of the sensor cable into the PC USB port.
Do not use force, ensure that the plug is properly oriented with the PC
port. Try rotating the USB plug if it does not easily insert into port. The
USB connector's Power Indicator LED turns green when device is
receiving power from the USB port.
CAUTION
Use extreme care when mounting the sensor inside a cabinet.
Pinching/crushing the sensor cord or USB Extension Cable can
damage the cord and cause image derogation or failure.
2. Set the required technical settings (exposure time, etc.) on the X-ray
generator (refer to X-ray Dose / Exposure Time Settings on page 5-4.
3. Assemble the KaVo IXS rings, bars and holders so that the entire
sensor area is visible through the ring. This applies to horizontal or
vertical Bitewing holders, and periapical (anterior or posterior) holders.
4. Apply a new disposable sheath to the image sensor, making sure that
it covers the portion of the cable which may come into contact with the
patient.
