Correct Usage
Operation of ScanX
may only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel .
ScanX is only to be used in the processing of exposed PSPs .
ScanX should be used in a room equipped for it .
Room temperature should be in the range 50 to 105°F (10 to 40°C) with relative humidity
between 5 and 95% .
If the device is brought into the room of operation from a cooler environment, condensation can
build up . Do not connect the device until it has warmed up to room temperature and is absolutely dry .
This room should be free of all possible interferences (e .g . strong magnetic fields), as these could
affect the operation .
ScanX may only be operated together with authorized software such as VISIX Imaging (see page 25) .
Correct usage includes observing all installation and operating instructions and adherence to the
set-up, operation and maintenance instructions .
Any use, above and beyond that described in this manual as correct usage, will invalidate the warranty .

Duo Intraoral (P/N D1000F) Digital Imaging System with In-Line Erase .
This manual is not to be used as a replacement for training in radiography .
For information regarding the computer system and imaging software, refer to the appropriate
documentation provided with your computer hardware and software .
ScanX is a digital imaging system that utilizes reusable Phosphor Storage Plates (PSP) in place of X-ray
film to produce diagnostic quality intraoral digital radiographs . ScanX produces a digital image by
scanning PSPs, which have been exposed to X-rays . ScanX allows computer storage, processing,
retrieval and display of the computed radiographic images utilizing a user supplied software and
computer . An additional feature of ScanX consists of an in-line plate eraser function that removes the
latent image from the plate immediately after scanning . This design provides an efficient one-operation
scanning and erasing process leaving the user with a PSP ready for the next X-ray procedure .
