The Acclaim Camera Systems is an intraoral camera system designed for dental applications that
consists of the Camera Handpiece with holder, Control Module, Power Supply Adapter and associated
cables as described below.
A5050 Control Module - The Control Module, part number A5050, is the single-point
interconnection interface for the system providing operating power, video and control connections
between the Camera Handpiece and various video outputs for connection to a computer and/or video
monitor as required. This Control Module is designed to connect to a PC with USB streaming video
capture software or to a PC with an installed capture card and associated video capture software.
When connected to a PC, the live video images taken by the Camera Handpiece are displayed on the
computer monitor and can be saved on the computer’s hard disk via the video capture software
application. When operated directly connected to only a video monitor, the connected monitor
displays high-resolution live video images taken by the Camera Handpiece.
Camera Handpiece - The Camera Handpiece, part number A5020, is extremely lightweight with a
high resolution, high sensitivity, auto-exposure controlled CCD sensor and a high performance lens
system illuminated by 7 ultra-bright white LED lamps. The fixed focus lens has a broad depth of field
bringing all objects measuring between 6 and 50 mm into focus enabling the camera to finely detail a
section of a single tooth to a full smile. The Camera Handpiece has 2 keypad buttons that provide fingertip operating control of the system. The specific functions performed by the keypad buttons depend
on system hardware and software installation configurations.
Power Supply Adapter - The 15-watt power supply adapter, part number A5135, connects to
the Control Module to provide 12 VDC power for operating the Acclaim Camera System.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Camera Handpiece Holder with Double-Sided Adhesive Fastener - The Camera
Handpiece Holder, part number A5145, can be fastened in a convenient location for safe storage of
the Camera Handpiece when it is not in use. In addition to storage, the Camera Handpiece Holder
also has built-in magnets that turn off the Camera Handpiece power. This feature conserves energy
and equipment wear so the camera is ready and operational when needed.
Camera Handpiece Cable - This 15-foot multi-conductor cable with quick-disconnect connectors
at each end (part number A5105) interconnects between the Camera Handpiece and the Control
Module providing all power, video output and control for camera operation. Optional 6, 9, 30 and
50-foot length cables are available from your Air Techniques Dealer.
Gameport Control Cable - A 10-foot cable, part number A5115, that interconnects between the
Control Module and the gameport of the user’s PC. Allows the 2 keypad buttons on the camera to be
used instead of a gameport-connected footswitch to freeze/unfreeze and save images on a PC with a
user-supplied compatible streaming video capture software application. An optional 20-foot cable is
available from your Air Techniques Dealer.
Gameport to USB Adapter Cable - An optional external gameport to USB adapter cable, part
number A5125, is purchased separately to allow the PC Game Port Control cable to connect to the
USB Port of the user’s computer when no gameport is available.
USB 2.0 High Speed Cable - A 6-foot USB 2.0 cable, part number B3554 that connects between
the Control Module and the user’s computer. Provides a digital video output for use with a PC with
user-supplied compatible streaming video capture software application.
Composite Video Cable - A 6-foot composite video cable (part number 77389) is used to connect
between the Control Module and external video monitor or computer with video capture card for direct
viewing.

Keypad Buttons - Each keypad button provides the Acclaim Camera Handpiece fingertip control
over the PC streaming video capture software via the gameport cable. The specific functions performed
by the keypad buttons depend on system hardware and software installation configurations that support
a 2-button footswitch. Typical keypad actions provided below.
NNOOTTEE::
Simultaneously depressing both keypad buttons for approximately 3
seconds deactivates the Camera Handpiece LED light source. This is
commonly used when imaging an X-ray on a light box.
(1) Top Keypad Button Sends a gameport footswitch button 1 command to the PC via the
gameport control cable. While the specific function performed
depends on the setting of the video capture software application
installed on the PC, this command typically freezes and unfreezes the
image that is displayed on the computer monitor.
(2) Bottom Keypad Button Sends a gameport footswitch Button 2 command to the PC via the
gameport control cable. While the specific action depends on the
video capture software installed, it typically saves the image displayed
on the computer monitor to the computer hard disk.
(3) Handpiece Connector An 8-pin connector socket that accepts connection of the keyed 8-pin
quick-disconnect plug end from the multi-conductor Handpiece cable.
Makes connection between the Camera Handpiece and Control Module
to provide power, video and control for the Acclaim Camera.
