Heating the scanner tip
In order to obtain optimal image quality, you should prevent condensation on the
scanner mirror before each scan by heating the scanner tip.
Follow the steps below to warm up the scanner before starting an acquisition:
1.
Ensure that the scanner tip, scanner body, and cradle are clean and sterile. For
details, see
Pre-cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization on page 59
.
2.
Gently and carefully attach the scanner tip to the scanner body, with the mirror
facing downward
.
3.
Connect the power supply to the
Aoralscan 2
. For details, see
Connecting the scanner on page 25
.
4.
Place the scanner in the cradle to secure it in place.
5.
When the LED ring light on the end of the scanner body lights up green, the
heater automatically turns on and detects the temperature.
It the temperature of the scanner tip is lower than the set point for anti-fogging,
a notification message of pre-heating and current temperature appears.
When the message disappears, the warm-up is done. The scanner is now
ready for an acquisition.
NOTES
• The heater maintains constant temperature on the scanner tip.
• The scanner tip is being heated whenever power is supplied, even if the
scanner is in standby or sleep mode.
• If the heater does not reach the necessary temperature for preventing
condensation during scanning, the message of “The scanner is pre-
heating. Please wait” appears.
